Is it credible that we have room in this country for 12 million illegal border jumpers, but not for one Christian family that just wants to homeschool their kids? Because that is the position of the Obama Administration.
If you want to jump the border and sign up for welfare, housing, free college educations, Obamacare, and Obamaphones, then welcome aboard. But if you’re a Christian family that wants to come to the United State to escape Nazi-Era laws against educating your kids in the manner of your choosing… don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
Uhhh, that’s because this son of a bitch and his coterie of Chicago Capones are statists. The CCIC (Closet case in Chief) is a Marxist for all intents and purposes.
He’s in love with wielding state power to coerce anyone and everyone to live for the service and the perpetuation of the state.
I remember well all of the respected opinion makers back in ’08 saying “No, he’s not.” and “No favors done for our side by people who speak so irresponsibly.”
They were no different in their way than the sh*tbags of the media who mocked and ridiculed Romney and Palin for their spot-on predictions of V. Putin’s future endeavors.
And look at how things have turned out.
But we don’t want to offend anyone with harsh truths, do we?
People’s vanity and self-esteem are so important that we’re allowing this prick (and many others, to be sure) to flush this country down the hopper.
Good times. Good times.
In the statist vision, parents don’t have enough knowledge to properly home school their children.
Not quite, Richard.
In the statist view, most parents who undertake the homeschooling task DO have enough knowledge, and the statists find this VERY threatening.
With the Romeike’s case in mind, it’s enlightening to read the text of the speech Obama gave at the recent National Prayer Breakfast. If you knew nothing of Obama except that speech, you would have to assume that fighting religious discrimination and persecution at home and abroad is his singular obsession, the top priority of his Administration, and his presumptive legacy.
It is simply not possible to overstate what a vile sociopath he is.

How about we all move to Texas and secede?
And yet Obama’s aunt and uncle are here illegally and being allowed to stay. On welfare. Wasn’t his uncle busted for drunk driving? And correct me if I am wrong, but wasn’t his deportation rescinded?
They are German, that means they have the right to move anywhere else in the EU which includes both the UK and Ireland where you are allowed to home-school your kids, in Ireland it is even mandated as part of the constitution. And both those countries speak English so it’s not like they would be going to some weird country with a language they don’t speak.
That may be true, Leo, but Obama and his administration are vindictive pricks considering they’re advertising food stamps in Mexico, are not controlling the borders, and has illegal relatives here sucking the blood out of the taxpayer.
Leo,
The Romeike family fled their homeland in 2008 to seek political asylum in the US (and particularly Tennessee) because of the favorable homeschooling laws and because they found a 4-acre farm that was very similar to the area where they had lived in Germany. To make the transition the Romeikes had to sell all of their possessions and start over in the US with just their suitcases. They made the transition with 5 kids and they now have 6. They adjusted to their new home and apparently got some help from the generous local community.
The Romeikes did not break our laws or ‘hide in the shadows’ like millions of illegal immigrants that are in our country. They played by the rules and applied for political asylum, which was initially granted in 2010. However, the DHS objected and the Obama Administration (through the DOJ) has spent the last four years opposing the Romeikes’ petition to stay, taking the case all the way to the US Supreme Court. The Supreme Court declined review, so the DOJ has prevailed and can commence deportation proceedings against the family at any time.
Did you propose the ‘solution’ of just dropping the Romeikes and their 6 children in some other English-speaking country in the EU because you were ignorant of the facts above? Or is it that you’re just an Obama-worshipping drone programmed to support everything the Administration says or does no matter how vile and indefensible it is?
So Mexicans and Central Americans are good. Germans are apparently bad. Isn’t that kind of racist?
That’s because Christian homeschooling families from Germany probably won’t be voting Democratic in elections if they opt to vote illegally or if they become US citizens.
The Democratic Party fully expects all those illegals from Mexico and Central America to jump on the Obama/Democratic bandwagon.
I suspect that the REAL reason the Obama administration is going after them has little to do with home-schooling. It IS about RACE – Obama doesn’t want any more “typical white people” to come to the US; God knows they might just “bitterly cling to guns and religion.”
Perhaps someone will pull an “Anne Frank,” and hide them somewhere. I would if I could.
Wait, was that sixth child born here?
How come that anchor baby is not allowed to stay
Bastiat Fan,
I feel the same way because the Romeikes are the kind of immigrants that we should want to stay here. They came to the US specifically because they know our laws protect the rights of parents to educate their own children (at least for now). They found a community that welcomed them and provided support to help them adjust to their new home. And now that they’ve been here for 6 years, the Obama Administration has defeated their petition for asylum and apparently has every intention of kicking the family of eight out of the country.
It’s such an outrage that it naturally inspires thoughts of helping them defy the Obama regime and stay here somehow. The irony is that even if there were some viable “Anne Frank” solution, the Romeikes wouldn’t be interested. They came here seeking the protection of our laws, and they complied with our laws with regard to seeking asylum. They have shown nothing but respect for our laws and our sovereignty and the Obama Administration can’t kick them out fast enough.
The contrast between how the Obama Administration has treated the Romeikes versus how they have treated the lawless parasites infesting our country tells you everything you need to know about the Left.

Yes, their sixth child was born here and I thought about that as well. I haven’t researched it yet but I think the problem would be that even if the child born in the US had a right to stay (and thus conferred a similar right on the mother, barring separation of the two), that protection wouldn’t extend to the other 5 children who are not US citizens and were born in Germany.
Not having looked at the applicable law, I could be completely wrong. I assume that avenue has been considered by the Romeikes’ lawyers. I don’t know the answer for sure.
@Charles #12. Amen, bro. That’s at the heart of everything the MOFO does.
Sean A anchor babies is often given as a reason illegals from Mexico and Central America aren’t deported.
German immigrants asking for asylum are just too white and the Obama admin any run the risk they they will become citizens and vote for the republicans.
Perhaps if they convert to Islam?
The decision has been reversed. Yay! But I really don’t like the “matters are decided on a whim” vibe this resolution has. Scheduled for deportation yesterday, allowed to stay today.
Rule of law? What’s that?
