So, Cruz really is for amnesty and not deportation? Too bad. That’s a serious deal breaker for me.
Romney’s much ridiculed self-deportation still seems the viable approach. Make it impossible to work and illegal aliens will, for the most, part self-deport. Make it a felony to hire, even temporarily, an illegal alien. Require eVerify for every worker—current and future.
And what does your hero RINO Rick Perry have to say about "pathway to citizenship" for the foreign invaders?
ARTICLE 08.12.11
Rick Perry on the Record
Question: "But just to be clear: if border security is accomplished, you can envision some sort of path to citizenship for people who are here illegally?"
And Perry's response?
"Sure."
Illegals do not care about citizenship. They care about our jobs and our perqs. Their loyalty is to their country of origen. I have worked with them for years and base this on many years of expierience.
CRUZ KNOWS THAT ALSO AND IS GIVING THEM EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANT. SMARTER IN HIS DESTRUCTION OF OUR COUNTRY THAN MOST.
BIG Mistake!!!!
Get stuffed Walkerbot. You Walkerbots are PATHETIC.
Conservatives by default hold the middle ground position. Conservatives aren’t against immigration despite what the Left say. Conservatives is just against illegal immigration
The border patrol should be used to go after businesses and if they are found to employ illegals they should be fined heavily and given automatic prison for a second offense.
That's what Eisenhower did and the illegals self deported and if they can't find a job will self deport again.
Make welfare recipients work and there will be plenty of people to take the place of the illegals.
Wait. You cite a two and a half year old article from leftist Texas Tribune where Sen Cruz makes no statement about what he does support and only clarifies what is the main sticking point to the gang of eight senate bill, a pathway to citizenship, and this is supposed to say what, exactly?
That we shouldn’t support Marco Rubio for President?
Cruz supports amnesty?
Uh-oh.
Republicans, like rattlesnakes, give fair warning. Democrats, like black mambas, don't.
Where is the "common-sense" solution that most Americans (other than Democrats and plutocrats) want? Which is self-deportation and a legal-immigtration policy that blocks the wholesale immigration of Mexican socialists?
The current policies of both legal and illegal immigration is destroying this nation and destroying the West. We need to get back to policies that directly address this
That's the sound of business interests using our own money to cancel our citizenship rights.
"I'd like to help the People, but the business lobby won't let me -- I need K Street money to get elected dogcatcher."
We just need to stop doing everything
It is foolish, when your house is on fire, to continue to hold off the firefighters, waiting outside, and allow more gasoline and matches be delivered to your open front door.
> “On the other hand, Hispanics in Texas are projected to eclipse the white population sometime in the next decade, and Cruz cannot afford to alienate large numbers of Latino voters with a strident anti-immigrant tone and a hard-line legislative approach. Major business interests also are supporting a path to citizenship.”
Lies.
Its all lies all the time.
Please remove this post.
Its an insult to post such Soros propaganda.
.
‘When it comes to immigration reform, U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz has made it abundantly clear what he opposes: giving citizenship to people who broke the law to come here.’
This is not even a sentence. It is the third paragraph It does not attempt to make sense if the headline
Which is nonsensical
It’s disappointing that Cruz won’t come out for deportations. He’s still my preferred candidate, but it’s still disappointing.
FYI ping.
