It's Only Nazi/Racist/Whatever When Republicans Say It

Not only do I remember when Democrats used to say they were against illegal immigration, I even wrote a blog post in which I linked video and party platforms and the like of prominent Democrats saying just that.

In this article is another video clip of Hillary Clinton--saying that the children of illegal immigrants need to be deported as well!  And the video is from 2014:
As Hillary Clinton begins a book tour to promote her 2016 campaign autopsy “What Happened,” video has begun to swirl online of a 2014 interview between her and CNN’s Christiane Amanpour to promote her previous book, “Hard Choices.”

During the exchange, Clinton had some tough words for the children of illegal immigrants, including waves of unaccompanied minors coming in 2014  — telling Amanpour that the United States was a nation of laws and that they probably had to go.

“We have to send a clear message, just because your child gets across the border, that doesn’t mean the child gets to stay,” said Clinton “So, we don’t want to send a message that is contrary to our laws or will encourage more children to make that dangerous journey.”

“So, you’re saying they should be sent back now?” Amanpour inquired.

“Well, they should be sent back as soon as it can be determined who responsible adults in their families are, because there are concerns whether all of them should be sent back,” said Clinton. “But I think all of them who can be should be reunited with their families.”

You can read the full exchange courtesy of CNN here.
But Donald Trump is a racist?  Dream(ers) on.

Just as Obama "evolved" on gay marriage, I'm sure Hillary will claim she "learned" and changed her views. Democrats seldom are accountable for their own words.
