NO!

discussing what to do about the floods of children entering the USA. Some of the kids are as young as 2 years old, they have their USA families contact information pined to their clothes.

The word 'transporters' have spread in all these countries south of the border is send your kids to the USA, soon as they cross the border they have USA amnesty and can stay.

The kids are being kept in horrible, over crowded conditions in the USA detention centers. They sit on the floor in groups of 100 or more. The border is open to foot traffic in most places, the border patrol picks up groups of kids. They project 6 or 7 thousand more kids in the next couple months. Maybe more.

Some church groups have stepped up and are helping. The border patrol has caught about 60? of the coyotes/transporters & VP Biden is there to try to work something out with Mexico/Central and South America.

Iraq must keep the Presidents schedule even busier than it already is. I usually follow what they work on here http://www.whitehouse.gov/

I would guess that it is either to give them the inside classified information on what the US options are -- and the down sides of all of them. It might be that he has a plan of action that he wants to announce to them first.

It might even be to get them all inside the loop. ANY decision - from doing nothing, to diplomacy, to giving intelligence to any military action are ALL controversial. Pulling them in could have the impact of somewhat coopting them if they are both given information and asked for input. I remember Obama doing that with many on both sides before the decision to surge in Afghanistan. This seems another time where there really are no good answers. (The worst would be jumping in to aid Al Maliki without him doing anything to change his government in a real substantial way - and I don't see him doing that. Oddly, that action makes more sense for Iran not us)

Obama: "Air strikes from the aircraft carrier." GOP: "No. Nuke Iraq, Iran and Syria and kill all the Muslims."

Obama: "Protect the embassy with special forces." GOP: "No. Let the militants take over the embassy."

etc...

There is no way that those GOP "leaders" will accept anything that US intelligence, the military or diplomatic corps will suggest. They will be at the microphones 1 minute after the meeting demanding that the US bomb Iraq, Iran and Syria.

The only "good" that can come out of this meeting is that the President can say that he kept the GOP in the loop . Aside from that, the President is wasting his time.

the loop. It eliminates one easy talking point and I doubt they prefer to take just one position.

will be a podium and microphone for "Crash" McCain's use to complain to media about not getting information from the WH, which is being given 30 feet away.

Heh heh, maybe the WH should set up a lifesize cardboard cut-out outside...

LYING THEIR ASSES OFF as usual. They want the foreign policy to be their policy same old bullshit.
