| Rep. Adams |
Saying,
"It's the philosophical issue of illegal," Ohio State Rep. John Adams (R-Sidney) has introduced a bill which would cause any Ohio city, county, state agency, or even private company to lose all state funding if it agreed to house any of the 57,000 Central American refugee children now being detained at our borders.
"Does the community actually want them? That's the question," said philosopher Adams. With his hatefully punitive bill, he answers his own question to his own satisfaction.
Obama asked Congress for $3.7 billion to assist in processing and caring for all these kids until we decide what to do with them. House Republicans gave OK'd $600,000 at the last minute, then blew town for recess. Great. That'll buy some toothbrushes and Kleenex.
Adams doesn't want any of that money or any of those kids in Ohio. Like far too many in his party, he's got a pigmentation problem. All he sees is a bunch of brown-skinned future Democrats.
If there were 57,000 old, conservative, white English-speaking men stuck at the Canadian border, clamoring to be let into the U.S., you think Adams would have a problem with that?

"We ought to say to these children, 'Welcome to America! You're going to go to school and get a job and become Americans.' We have 3141 counties in this country. That'd be 20 children per county. The idea that we can't assimilate these 8-year-old 'criminals' with their teddy bears is preposterous."
