who asserts that she fights for the rights of women and children. I guess that's only true if it's politically expedient?

Why do all her supporters need to be liberal, what, a moderate democrat no longer has a say in anything?

it's meaning has long ago morphed into something completely unrecognizable to me.

I don't blame you, but it is really seems to be a fight on DU for anyone who is not liberal or supporting Senator Sanders. I hope the crap doesn't sink DU if Senator Sanders does not win....There are a lot of moderates too.

Sorry, but I believe she has a point, if the parents wanted their children to be in a better place, they needed to come with them. Trusting your children to underworld figures, instead of the parents themselves? If you have the money to pay these smugglers, you can get out yourself. One question that was not asked here was how many children sent alone on this journey never made it, ended up in the hands of predictors, sold into sex trade?....
