Former First Lady, Pickles Bush, wrote a thing in The WaPo, where they sagely note that democracy dies in darkness:
I live in a border state. I appreciate the need to enforce and protect our international boundaries, but this zero-tolerance policy is cruel. It is immoral. And it breaks my heart.
Our government should not be in the business of warehousing children in converted box stores or making plans to place them in tent cities in the desert outside of El Paso. These images are eerily reminiscent of the Japanese American internment camps of World War II, now considered to have been one of the most shameful episodes in U.S. history…
Noted Xanax enthusiast, Pickles spent the entire duration of Chimpy’s Great Adventure not commenting while her husband’s cabal of nincompoops and psychos committed war crimes with glee heretofore unknown.
Just thought that the WaPo might want some context.
Context is for Liberals. Conservatives don’t need no stinkin context. It hurts their feelings.

Sigh. The time has come for Obama to step up and tell the Orange Turd that he approves of kidnapping children. They’d be released before the first tweet klanded.
(That last word was a typo, but lordy lord it fits…)

BDR – I think klanded is the best portmanteau of the day. (Klunk + Landed, I assume? Wink-wink!)

I was always amazed as well how that seemingly normal woman could bear to be near that POS W Bush. Of course we all feel the same thing now about The Fake President’s harem of ex-wives. How can they?

“Has made a human like statement” is as far as we should go, IMO.

I appreciate Pickles’ comments on this horrible policy. But I haven’t forgotten how, at one of the RNC hatefests, she said her dad, who died from Alzheimer’s, wouldn’t have wanted stem cell therapy that might have helped him. Right, because Alzheimer’s is a goddam walk in the park for the victim, family, and friends.
By the way, I recently had amniotic injections for heel pain. Lots of stem cells in amniotic fluid. These injections been successful in treating plantar fasciitis and Achilles’ tendonitis, plus plenty of conditions elsewhere in the body. The Bride had stem cell therapy for her knee last fall, and it’s helped. Science marches on, no thanks to the goopers.

False equivalency!
Unlike the victims of today’s zero-tolerance policy, the Japanese Internees were held together as families, except for a brief period when the men were separated from their families while the men built the camps.
