I don't think you can blame the WH for the rumors. As Mark Twain, or Winston Churchill, or somebody, said, a lie gets halfway around the world while the truth is still pulling on its pants.
I hope you are feeling better. Are you still sick?

Here is DACA on Wikipedia.

As I was saying before, even though Obama is claiming that DACA doesn't apply to these current kids, it might as well apply since the kids are just being released with the stipulation that they report to ICE within a month. That's basically as good as asylum. These kids are smart to come here. They'll probably be able to stay.
