While both Democrats and Republicans fret about how much of the taxpayers' money should be spent on taking care of the thousands of illegal immigrants who have flooded the southwest border, a 13-year Border Patrol veteran made some thought-provoking revelations. Chris Cabrera, now a union vice president, told station WND and Rep. Steve Stockman, R-Texas, that many of them, including unaccompanied minors, have been coached on how to game the U.S. immigration system. "Whether it's the adults or the young kids," he said, "one thing we consistently hear is, 'Obama will take care of us.'"

"Well, we cuss the lawmakers . . . but I notice we're always perfectly willin' to share in any of the sums of money that they might distribute." - Will Rogers

"Humor is the great thing, the saving thing. The minute it crops up, all our irritations and resentments slip away and a sunny spirit takes their place." -
