The best way for people to avoid sleeping on dirt floors and living in sewage, is give it up, don't have babies. If you can't it right after 3 or 4 thousand years, forget about it. The games' not worth the candle.

Why is that the commentators get it right and the ones getting paid to write get it wrong. This odd couple shoud be inmprisoned for kidnapping and polluting, not honored. Please enough is enough. NO MORE IMMAGRATION. It's 2009 not 1776 or 1888.

I agree that we should take care of our own, especially the children and the elderly. The difference between the third world and the U.S., however is that there IS opportunity in the U.S. to make a better life for yourself if you want to work for it. I've been to some of those countries and the poverty there is unbearable--people living in sewage, sleeping on dirt floors with no way out. Although I'm not unsympathetic to America's poor, I've seen many here driving nice cars and watching big screen TV's. That is luxury compared to way the people Africa, etc. live!

It is this attitude that needs to change, to think otherwise is truly ignorant.

Anyone who posts negative comments should spend a week in the death camps Rose and her children lived in. Can you imagine giving birth to twins in silence, cutting your umbilical cord with bamboo and tying it off with your hair? She's as strong as any mother could possibly be for surviving and getting all of her children to safety so quickly after losing their father. Shame on anyone who thinks she never should have come. I would gladly send you back there and bring more people like her here.

women in Africa will continue to have babies if there's not access to birth control. The pope doesn't think condoms should be made available (again, the Catholic Church sticking its nose where it doesn't belong). also, a lot of these women are pregnant as a result of r pe. It's not that easy just "not to have babies". As long as the the majority of people in third world countries have to access to a decent education, they will continue to live the way they do and as long as these countries continue to be allowed to be ruled by corrupt dictators, there never will be a decent education system and women will continue to be held back and treated like second class citizens (sometimes third, behind the cows).

I wondered why this woman had so many babies and then my brained turned on -- she lives in Africa. I am guessing sex education isn't really a top prioirty, when let's say, you're in the middle of a giant war zone.

Also, let's remember this is the same country that has so little sex education that men used to (and perhaps still do now) sexually assault virgins without a condom so they could not catch AIDS. Because THAT is what they believed to be true. Yes, this is how "educated" they are there on the topic of sex.

Me? i want to keep and defend our standard of living and the ideals that created this nation. Not trade them so that I can feel better about myself.

Foreign aid that covers rescue programs like this is a whopping 1% of our federal budget. To suggest that funding such efforts is a failure to "take care of our own" is an illusion at best.

Ah,...your comment about the "hard work of generations." Um, college professa, where do you think previous generations came from?? Someone, somewhere down the line in your family was an immigrant. So the U.S. let YOUR family into the country. If Rose is legal, why should she not be a citizen? She is clearly doing something good to help others.

I agreee we shouldn't let terrorists into this country,and something has to be done about the Mexican borders, perhaps.

But i ask you, USARMY1, what have YOU done lately to help others?? Or do you just sit in your bunker all day feeling depressed??

Hey CFARN,.Firstly, I too am all for helping others, but it MUST start here in the USA FIRST! One cannot love without loving themselves first and such one cannot help feed without feeding themselves FIRST! You call what we say as ignorant, racist, hate, I call it...COMMON F'EN SENSE! I'm not going to apologize that my ancestors came over here first, BUT guess what, THEY DID and here we are, they were first in line to leave oppression and fight for a better life for their children and childrens children....because of what my ancestors fought for Americans should be first for aid; NOT REFUGEES! Get in line like the rest of us; why should these people be treated any differently than the American Homeless, the Veterans that fought for our and YOUR freedom, the mentally ill, why do they deserve the benefits FIRST before the people that actually fought for this country?
In closing this is NOT about a lack of education, again this is simply commonsense, if you can't understand that then get back on the plane you came in from and go back...you want to make a change, well, change starts at home and as they say home is where your heart is and your heart is back in Africa...so go there.

The solution to the problem is? These tribes have hated each other for generations. Now that there is a limited market for the slave trade, people of color imprision other people of color or they kill them. Let's blame the Dutch? The English? The Spanish?
While the rescue program costs 1% of our total foreign aid perhaps the author who quoted that figure can tell us what is the cost when these people land on our shores in need for food, shelter, clothing, education and health care.
Go back to one of the first questions in a fresham psychology class...if you were on a boat with your family and it sank, who would you save? If we can't save outselves then how can we save others?

My husband is at this event right now as a personal guest of Rose Mapendo's. He recently returned from a health care focused trip to Kosovo (all you racists out there-remember the people of Kososvo are white?well, actually they are brown and Muslim and we know it is the white way to hate anyone with skin darker than our own-thus the conflict in this country). After Kosovo, he went to Burundi and Rwanda, and traveled with Rose's brother who is an OB/GYN in Phoenix. After reading people's reactions to this article honoring this woman , I really do understand how a man like Hitler got a toehold of the populace. With thoughts like these, it could happen again in a second. Thanks to all of you for confirming this.

Reality check. There are about 6.2 billion people in the world. Probably at least half of them would come to the United States if they could. Simply put,our resources could not sustain that many people. The days of handing immigrants 40 acres and a mule are history. Just the issue of potable water would be a crisis. It would be available to most only when it rained.

I hate welfare cheats; I hate section 8's (where people live in better places than I can afford, for practically nothing); I hate that government agencies do not cross-check when these recipients are collecting from every welfare program out there(housing, heat, medicine, schooling, etc. and can work and earn full salary at the same time; I hate that all it takes to stay in this country is to have a baby here; I hate anyone who games the system, and I can go on and on, but, I do not hate people like these who are desperate for our help and are being condemned beforehand because they need it.

I hate welfare cheats; I hate section 8's which allow people to live in high-quality housing that most of us can't afford-for almost nothing!; I hate that the same people who receive housing, get free heat or, and this is the real kicker... get credit for it even when it comes free under the rental; I hate that all you have to do to stay here is have a baby here who automatically gets citizenship; I hate that the same people who know how to game the system get everything free; I hate lots of giveaway programs that mostly go to the unworthy...but, for heaven's sake
how can you not want to help these people escape the horrors of life? Shame on you all.
