Open Border Globalist Laura Bush Compares Border Enforcement to ‘Japanese American Internment Camps’

1. Not even close.

2. You never complained about it when Obama was in office.

3.  Can’t stand the lot of ya.

 

Breitbart: Former first lady Laura Bush blasted the temporary separation of illegal immigrant families as “cruel” and “immoral.” She added that it is “eerily reminiscent of the Japanese American internment camps of World War II.”

Bush published her piece on Sunday, Father’s Day, in the Washington Post, a far-left, anti-Trump publication that spreads fake news.

“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,” she writes.

“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,” Bush added. “These images are eerily reminiscent of the Japanese American internment camps of World War II, one of the most shameful episodes in U.S. history.”

Bush also wrote about the “trauma” these children could face.

“We also know that this treatment inflicts trauma; interned Japanese have been two times as likely to suffer cardiovascular disease or die prematurely than those who were not interned.”

Bush closed her piece by calling for “a kinder, more compassionate and more moral answer to this current crisis,” but did not offer any solutions.

For reasons only she can explain, Bush failed to mention the “trauma” inflicted on these minor children during the arduous and dangerous trek across the border. Nor did she mention the fact that, in many cases, these children are not part of a “family unit,” but rather strangers to the adults they cross the border with, adults who pretend to be parents in the hope America will “catch and release” them into the country — because catching and releasing them is the only way to keep these families together.  read more

Snip:

This is where they’re being “interned,” you Stepford wife.

  1. This won’t go down well with the Japanese citizens who were interned, or impacted by internment. She should ask them. I’ll line up the interviews.

  2. This woman was married to the one President who could have used the 9/11/2001 terrorist attacks to fix all of the problems on our country’s borders. There wouldn’t have been a moderate Democrat who would have dared to vote against strengthening our border security after those attacks. Now she wants us to save illegal alien children from the trauma of temporarily living in clean facilities with big screen televisions and decent meals.

  3. Screw the entire Bush family.
    They are dead to me.
    And to think, I defended those scumbags to leftist scumbags for 8-long years.
    May the fires of hell take them all away.

  4. Factoid about Internment Camps: It was Dem/Soc. FDR who gave the order. It was Cal.Dem/Lib Governor Earl Warren who enforced it. (Later to become Supreme Court Chief Justice.) The only man of worth in that administration to object to the internment of Japanese Americans was FBI Director, J. Edgar Hoover.
    How times have changed

    Laura Bush is about as bright as your average CNN “News Service” reader.

  5. Jeb lost, get over it.
    I used to defend the Bush’s
    Now I realize it was because I used to have loyalty to the Republicans
    I am over that, now I am a proud TRUMPICAN!
    Nothing else satisfies

  6. I’m asking a favor. Will you please remove that photo of young Barron Trump, holding his hand to his head like he has a migrane. It makes no sense.
    He’s fourteen, who cares what his IQ is. It’s been on there for months now.
    When I was his age they didn’t have IQ testing that I knew of. Maybe the Irish Government was testing us secretly and was glad to get rid of me and let me go to America to become a deplorable cultist.
    According to the US Army my IQ was 128. When I was 14 it must have been about 65. Today who the hell knows? Get off Barron’s case.

    I don’t give a shit anyway. Give the kid a break

  7. Tom, Earl Warren earned the nickname “Pinkey” because of his communist leanings after he became Gov. and was followed by his commie buddy and pal Edmond G. “Pat” Brown in the office of GOV. I can only think of Three REAL Gov. since I was born in CA. and that was Reagan Duke, and PETE.

  10. Now I know why Laura only had 1 staff person, it was a nurse to dispense her meds.
    These people stayed silent during the reign of our first communist wannabe president as he wreaked havoc on this nation and NOW they open their yappers?!? I was an 18 year old democrat and voted for Carter and have regretted it ever since, now I might be even more pissed I voted for GW, not that I had a choice.

  11. I coined the term ‘Headline Readers’.
    Everything they know they learned from reading headlines (and only from sources whose bias they prefer). But they demand that they are experts on the topic.

    It sure is a shame when someone you thought you respected turns out to be a Headline Reader.

  12. Who brought the l’il chillens to the border?
    Who took them across and made them illegally invading immigrants?

    Get serious, Laura – their “parents” are 100% responsible.

    Try calling it what it is. If the mexicans stayed in mexico, there wouldn’t be a problem, now would there?

    But, of course, reason has no part in this …

  13. A little known fact about the internment of Japanese Americans after the attacks on Pearl Harbor and the Philippines, is that dozens of them were spying on military installations on the West Coast for their homeland. This was known at highest levels of the Roosevelt Administration and military intelligence, because our code breakers were reading the Japanese diplomatic and naval codes, and had identified the Japanese spies. If just those Japanese American spies were rounded up by the FBI and thrown in jail, the Japanese would have suspected that their codes had been broken. Therefore, Roosevelt, Stimson and Marshall decided to intern all of the Japanese Americans (including the Japanese spies) in order to protect the secret that we were able to break the Japanese codes using decryption techniques that led to the victory at Midway. I was told this by a World War II Naval code breaker who was in the Pacific throughout the war. He was a Naval Academy graduate who studied Japanese while assigned to the American embassy in Tokyo before the war. His name was Tex Baird.

  14. Laura, you ignorant sl*t. How convienient to speak about open U.S. borders and support for illegal alien corrupt schemes to enter this country. You live comfortably in a heavily guarded and gated mansion in Texas.

  15. Anything Melania says about illegals will be attacked by leftists like bat crap crazy Grffin, so she might as well say she supports her husband whether it true or not. Politically, she seems to be in a New York state of mind.

    Why can’t moderate conservatives like Melania simply speak for the legal immigrants who are naturalized after years of dedication to the correct process to obtain citizenship. Their stories speak volumes about the right way to become U.S. citizens.

  16. To clarify about Japanese Internment – Specific people were strongly advised to move out of the western coast states (AL, WA, OR, CA, NV, AZ) and if they had not within x amount of days then they were relocated east. They could enter and exit an internment camp of their own choosing but could not travel to the west coast. Japanese Americans in mid-west or east coast were not interned.
    Michelle Malkin has an excellent detailed book called In Defense of Internment – highly recommended.
