During a Spanish interview with Telemundo, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush endorsed amnesty for what he referred to as the “11 million” illegal aliens living in the U.S. in defiance of the law.
“For the 11 million people [who are here illegally], they must come out of the shadows, receive a work visa, start paying taxes and also pay a small fine, learn English, don’t receive government benefits, but they come out of the shadows and they receive legal status after some time,” Bush said on Monday, according to a translation provided by CNN.
Bush starts out on the wrong foot by claiming only 11 million illegal aliens are in the country. That number, repeated ad nauseam by the Washington establishment and mainstream media, assumes that illegal aliens responded to the Census at all, let alone admitted they were here illegally.
Aliens who forge green cards and steal Americans’ Social Security numbers aren’t likely to suddenly start filling out government forms truthfully. As professor of economics and social policy at the Harvard Kennedy School George Borjas put it: “These are people who don’t want to be found.”
In 2005, two portfolio managers at Bear Stearnes looked at several factors that didn’t rely on illegals’ self-reporting, including remittances and housing permits handed out in illegal alien enclaves, and estimated that 20 million illegals were present in the U.S. On top of that, Donald L. Barlett and James B. Steele estimated in a 2006 TIME article that three million illegals entered the country every single year. Author Ann Coulter, who laid these numbers out clearly in her book Adios America, estimates there are at least 30 million illegals residing in the U.S.

He will declare himself an illegal alien soon enough. lol
>>He will declare himself an illegal alien soon enough. lol
He’s already declared himself to be hispanic, so its not a stretch for him to decide that he is an illegal immigrant black hispanic transgendered female.
If you’re gonna pander, go big or go home!!
Never go full retard.
Jeb Bush is an enormous danger to this country.
Jeb Bush is a Mexican Government mole.
That explains everything.
I won’t vote for this scum sucking swine.
Jeb should apply for El Presidente in Mexico and leave the US alone.
Okay Jeb, let them all live at your place our your brother George’s place or your daddies place in Maine. Hypocrite.
And btw Jeb, you have something against all hundred of millions of Chinese/Indian/Pakistani citizens who would love to come here you useful idiot?
Shadows? What shadows? They are up front and in our faces.
>>Shadows? What shadows? They are up front and in our faces.
I know. They keep talking about the shadows, yet they are on every construction site, runnning every lawn mower, attending public schools, sitting in ERs, and protesting at colleges. I’m more in the shadows than they are.
bump!
No, Norm, you have it all wrong. Don't you know that they're voting against Hillary? Maybe you think you'd be voting for Jeb, a guy you despise, that's your choice. Just understand: voters for lesser evil they totally reject voting for Jeb, they say it constantly, yet they also say they're prepared to vote for him if he gets the nomination, and that makes perfect sense because they won't be voting for Jeb, they'll be voting against Hillary, or whoever the Democrat Nightmare du jour is.
They're not voting for a damned Rino weenie like Jeb, hell no! They're voting against the Democrat. Get your facts straight, wouldja?
*ducking*
Hey I got a guy on another thread as we speak telling me I’m a liberal for wanting Cruz and Palin elected.
So what am I supposed to think here? I mean CLEARLY this many rock ribbed conservatives can’t be wrong!
CLEARLY FR must be a hard left site for allowing DNC trolls such as myself who harp on hard left subjects like “Vote for the conservative not the liberal” and Stand on principle”
I mean come on. ... OF course I support lesser evil. Of course evil purists support lesser evil. If we wanted conservatives elected, we’d be using FR to elect them and clearly, by our actions, we back Hillary and Barry and Axlerod and Jarret.
Because I smoke crack and stuff.
How many times have I told you to stop smokin’ that darned crack? (she said as she downed her third pint of Old Tennis Shoes) ...
I’m weaning off the Meth. It’s not easy. I figure I’ll try Trump next. Seems like a good high.
Traitor. Seditionist, but never a president.
LOL!!
I think Ann's pretty close to the mark. I saw a Spanish-language newspaper in Houston (there are two or three of these weeklies) run a front-page article on the issue, and they claimed there are 51,000,000 Hispanics of every description in the U.S., and iirc their estimate of total illegals was around 33,000,000. I thought I saved that article somewhere but I'd have to find it to cite it properly.
NALEO's officeholder NGO have said, off the record, that they expect to become a kingmaker voting bloc in U.S. politics in the near future, and to be able to command a totally disproportionate policymaking role in future. Of course, this prompts us to remember La Raza's motto: "Por la Raza, todo; por los otros, Nada." ("For the Race, everything; for the others, Nothing.")
Then, of course, there's Aztlanism and the dream of driving all gueros out of the Southwest, California, and Texas -- basically, all the States with Spanish names are theirs, and gringos will have to leave, or live on as helotes, a permanent underclass.
