Yeah... saw a bit of the news conference with Jeb Bush discussing the Haitian issue...

Tough call... Personally, I think we should treat the Cuban refugees from Castro the same way we treat Haitians and other illegals.

We have to dissuade them from making such a dangerous trip in overloaded boats...

And even more important, it may require that we apply some extra pressure upon their government in order to spur their economy and political openess so they feel compelled to risk such a dangerous trip here..

So much corruption in that country.... It will take decades of economic and social assistance to create meaningful change there.

Fox just announced a few minutes ago that 6 people have been charged with smuggling people in the Haitian Migrant situation from yesterday....

Too bad we don't have an island out there in the South Pacific with nothing on it except coconuts...just lots of sharks around it... Thats where we could put the smugglers...
