Seriously:
Concrete evidence has shown up proving our earlier assertion: The breach of our border by waves of unaccompanied alien children was orchestrated by the administration based on a strategy straight out of the playbook President Obama studied as a community organizer. His goal is to get his way on immigration reform by overwhelming the U.S. Border Patrol and collapsing an already weakened system.
Oh my God! What's the scoop?
The evidence comes in the form a government contract solicited in January by the Department of Homeland Security. The listing asked for "Escort Services for Unaccompanied Alien Children" in expectation of the arrival of 65,000 minors on our southern border without their parents or guardians.

The operative language in the listing is the statement by DHS/Immigration and Customs Enforcement that they expect there "will be approximately 65,000" alien minors requiring assistance. This is a significant increase from the 5,000 minors who are detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement annually. It also strongly suggests not only advance knowledge of the human catastrophe about to unfold but a lack of any effort to stop it.

I don't know why this shows a lack of effort to stop it, but I guess it just does.

Here's a little factoid they didn't bother to look at: The surge started in October. So, the January date wasn't "in anticipation" of the surge, it was right in the middle of it.

I suppose these anti-immigrant assholes think the government should have just thrown up its hands and let the kids starve and die. Because freedom and liberty.
