The rift over immigration in the emerging Republican presidential field opened up publicly Saturday, as several potential candidates called for enforcement of existing laws while former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and South Carolina Sen. Lindsay Graham said those living in the U.S. illegally should have a path to legal status...

"No one I know has a plan to round up illegal immigrants and send them back."

Says the guy still waving a lure around.

12 month renewable foreign worker visas, plus more wholehearted ICE enforcment, problem solved(?) beyond that, a political litmus test for who is bought and paid for(?)

Sen. Lindsay Graham

LOL!

"Immigrants that are here need to have a path to legalized status," Bush said."

Not if they broke the law in staying here, El Jebbie.

Bush said: “No one I know has a plan to round up illegal immigrants and send them back.”

I don’t doubt it, and that’s exactly what’s wrong with Jebster and the friends he keeps. None of them have a plan to actually defend the United States!

Also, I’m pretty sure there are far, far more than 11 million illegals in the country. They are low balling it—big time.

Finally, I’m personally not opposed to granting legal status in exceptional circumstances, like for children who literally grew up in the United States, but the vast majority of illegals must never be rewarded for breaking our laws!

"We need a rational solution to the 11 million,..."

40 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIEN INVADERS

Huckabee recommended only allowing in immigrants who say they love America

LOL

[Paine in the Neck]

Stop giving them prizes for crossing the border and they'll stop crossing the border. If you don't want to take the actions that will stop them then we can only conclude that you want them here.

[cripplecreek]

Imagine a police spokesman saying “No one I know has any plan to arrest the bank robbers and lock them up”.

[Lurkinanloomin]

The GOP is wholly owned by The Cheap Labor Express.

The border has been left open through administrations of both parties since the last amnesty on purpose.

It is not accidental that we find ourselves with 30-40 million illegal aliens (11 million has been a lie for 15 years)

We will not be allowed to vote for a President who will stop the invasion with the R and D parties.
