Seems as how the Seattle Times and The TurnBULL woman are on a mission to make Americans feel guilty about expelling the ILLEGALS. Be sure to let the managing editor and the TurnBULL writer know what you think about their efforts.

"The poor undocumented guy who gets sent back is seen as a burden on the government," said Erica Dahl-Bredine, country manager for Catholic Relief Services' Mexico program in Tucson, Ariz.
It's ok to be a burden on US taxpayers but woe if you return to Mexico and become a *burden* to Mexico.
"Many say the Mexican government must address the conditions that cause its citizens to flock north in the first place. Others believe the U.S. creates problems when it deposits hundreds of thousands of those same people jobless, some criminals back into Mexico."
See how the mind games are played here - it is America's FAULT that the Mexicans ILLEGALLY entered a sovereign country - got caught and returned to their home in Mexico. By returning Mexicans (ILLEGALS) to Mexico we are *creating problems* for Mexico. No mention here of the problems the ILLEGALS cause for Americans as that is not to be discussed or considered.
Oh, well, I could go thru this tear jerker and maybe be in line for an oscar for tearjerking documentary of the year but I think each of you can do as well, maybe better. Let the Seattle Times know what you think - and don't forget the TurnBULL woman who penned this crap.

Across the border, "a humanitarian crisis" is brewing
By Lornet Turnbull
Seattle Times staff reporter
Bienvenido Paisano.
It's a message that welcomes Mexican compatriots driving or flying back to Mexico for holidays or to visit family and friends.
They aren't just empty words but part of the government embrace of its citizens abroad who remain connected and financially committed to the country.
At airports and border crossings, the returnees are given information on staying safe and reporting any government corruption they encounter.
But for those Mexicans unceremoniously returned home those deported and dropped off by U.S. immigration in Mexican border towns such as Nogales, Tijuana and Juárez there is no such welcome.
"The poor undocumented guy who gets sent back is seen as a burden on the government," said Erica Dahl-Bredine, country manager for Catholic Relief Services' Mexico program in Tucson, Ariz.
