JEB BUSH: CROSSING THE BORDER ILLEGALLY AN 'ACT OF LOVE'
Breitbart ^ | April 6, 2014

Posted on 04/06/2014 11:18:45 AM PDT by Jim Robinson

Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush discussing immigration reform on Fox News this Sunday:

"I'm going to say this and it will be on tape, and so be it. The way I look at this is someone who comes to our country because they couldn't come legally, they come to our country because their family's dad who loves their children was worried that their children didn't have food on the table, and they wanted to make sure their family was intact. And they crossed the border because they had no other means to work to be able to provide for their family. Yes, they broke the law, but it's not a felony. it's kind of -- it's a -- it's an act of love. It's an act of commitment to your family. I honestly think that's a different kind of crime that should be, there should be a price paid, but it shouldn't be -- it shouldn't rile people up that people are actually coming to this country to provide for their families. And the idea that we're not going to fix this but with with comprehensive reform ends up trapping these people, when they could make a great contribution for their own their families but also for us.

So I think we need to get beyond the harsh political rhetoric to a better place. The great number of people who come to this country come because they have no opportunities in other places. They may love their country, but they come here because they want to provide for their families. And they can make a contribution to our country if we actually organized ourselves in a better way."

Yes, I agree. I meant honest in that they are very hard working and not the caricature of drug dealing or theifs. The owner of the temp agency I worked for one Saturday, told me that the owners of that nursery could not get any e else to work those jobs other than those Mexicans. K could believe it, that day we had to load up a big rig with plants and trees mostly by hand. I am in decent shspe..almost passed out at one point. Don’t know if the owners profit margin would allow it, but the pay should be quite a bit higher than $10 per hour, then other locals would do it, I believe.

The way I look at this is someone robs a bank, they rob a bank because their family’s dad who loves their children was worried that their children didn’t have food on the table, and they wanted to make sure their family was intact. And they robed the bank because they had no other means to work to be able to provide for their family. Yes, they broke the law, but it’s not a felony. it’s kind of — it’s a — it’s an act of love. It’s an act of commitment to your family.”

Robbing a bank or invading a sovereign nation. Jed Bush is
just another liberal democrat lite.

Jeb Bush and the country clubbers behind him are not paying enough taxes. Listening to crap like this is just too much.

I find your posts insulting!

AMERICAN CITIZENS are left begging for work......any work......a job oppening produces thousands applying for whatever positions they have......and usually there are only a few positions to fill.

Truly, how dare you........mouthing the George Bush propaganda.....’doing the work Americans won’t do’

Jeb Bush and George Bush are the front and back sides of the same slimy coin......no difference.

THEY BOTH MAKE ME ILL!

“The job he takes from an American trying to put food on his families table, is that an act of love?”

His problem is that he has to climb into bed every night with a Mexican! Just like Rubio, that are all in for their “own.” The rule of law does not matter, nor does what their “needs” may do to legitimate citizens of this country. The fallacy here is that the belief that somehow this country has the ability to absorb virtually all of the world’s poor and disadvantaged. We should have invaded Mexico and kicked out the Castilianos a half century ago. Mexico has all that’s necessary to have a booming economy except for the fact that they have corrupt leaders. And we should never have allowed Castro to die of old age. We can go spill our blood and piss away our treasure on the most worthless part of the world that there is, but we won’t do anything like it to save our own hemisphere.

They were decent people and did not do all those things that you mentioned.

What didn't they do? They were obviously here illegally and working illegally. Did they drive to work without a driver's license or inform their employer that they were here illegally? Did they pay taxes on their earnings? Did they supply an SSN?

It is illegal for employers to hire illegals to work.

but they are not often times, the villains that you are portraying. That is a fact. Sometimes, yes, they are. Often times, not.

Save your BS for people who don't understand our immigration laws.

The Myth of the “Otherwise Law-Abiding” Illegal Alien

The average illegal alien violates numerous statutes, often creating real victims.

False Personation of a U.S. Citizen (18 U.S.C. § 911). Illegal aliens often present themselves as U.S. citizens, an act punishable by up to five years in jail, a felony. This law is often cited in immigration prosecutions and may involve, for example, an alien claiming U.S. citizenship to his employer.

Fraud and False Statements (18 U.S.C. § 1001). It is common for illegal aliens to make false statements to the government or on official documents. An illegal alien violates this law when claiming to be a U.S. citizen on an I-9 Employment Eligibility form and faces a fine and up to five years imprisonment.

Social Security Fraud (42 U.S.C. § 408). This statute has been invoked where an illegal alien provided a false Social Security number for the purpose of acquiring a job, where an illegal alien used a fraudulent Social Security number for the purpose of acquiring a driver's license, and when an illegal alien used a Social Security card belonging to a citizen in order to obtain Section 8 housing, for example. Violation of this statute can result in a fine and/or imprisonment up to five years. The court can also require violators to provide restitution to the victims.

Stop defending the indefensible.

Jeb you should brush up on your History lessons ( do they teach History any more especially if the schools have implemented Common Core? ) and read this article http://www.alipac.us/f12/operation-wetback-rounding-up-deporting-illegal-aliens-177033/

Every time I see an illegal alien walking around (they’re easy to spot, especially the men: diminutive, wearing a cap with a hooded sweatshirt with the hood pulled over the cap, plus a backpack), I wonder which business hires them, so I can make a point of boycotting that business.

There is nothing that could make me vote for Jeb Bush.

The CommuDems could resurrect Stalin and I still would not vote for Jeb or that younger hispanic Bush they are grooming. Or any Bush for that matter.

So we all are now expected to accept the proposition that our nation and its taxpaying citizens must submit to the confiscation of their wealth for the good of another nation’s dysfunctional citizens?

She was coming back from Europe. I think France. Her excuse was that she was afraid to let Jeb know she spent that much.

By that rationale, a man who steals a car or cheats on his income tax is acting out of love. Jeb Bush - stuck on stupid.
