Bill Maher nailed it last night:
"...My point being there are countries who deal with refugee problems much bigger than this one. The other countries in South America are getting influxes of people, also. How come the richest country in the world is the one that screams the loudest? The one that has more space for these people and the ability to handle them.
I mean, ask the people in Lebanon. There's a war going on to their left and to their right. Israel is now at war again with the Palestinians, ...these people must be saying, 'I've got 2 million Syrians in my front yard and you're worried about 50,000 kids from Guatemala?' And 85% of them have relatives already here in America."
