I didn't see anything in this "plan" to close the border to further illegal encroachments. Its already a crime to smuggle people into the country, so this so-called "punishment" plan for traffickers is worthless without a strong border control policy. I am absolutely opposed to any type of 'amnesty' or streamlined citizenship process for those already here unless it is coupled to a closed border policy. Arnold is tampering in an area in which state governors have no authority: its called "Foreign Policy" and it is the purview of the US Executive Branch. This guy is nuts.

Well, while I oppose all Amnesties, regardless of them being coupled with better enforcement (I fell for that scam in 1986, and won't do it again), I can at least respect someone making the argument honestly, using words that have meanings which we all understand.

Unfortunately, Schwarzenegger is using Karl Rove's focus-grouped glossary.

Arnold, by his own, Amnesty-favoring words, repeatedly shows that he is untrustworthy on Illegal Aliens.
