Huckabee’s had his immigration plan out there for weeks now Torch.
Jim Gilcrest has stated that Huckabee is the ONLY candidate that actually deals with the problems at the border..and with employers who hire illegals.
Huckabee’s pointed out many times in debate that he supported building the fence..that he was solidly against amnesty and in no way supported sanctuary cities.
Look at both Romney and McCain.. Romney..supported sanctuary cites..and even EMPLOYED illegals..even after it had been brought to his attention...
McCain..we all know his positions on immigration..and they were rightly opposed by the grassroots in our country..
There is a VAST difference between McCain and Huckabee on immigration..you dont get the endorsement of Duncan Hunter, Jim Gilcrest unless you’re serious about fixing the broken borders...
For weeks? Is that supposed to negate what he agreed with for a decade before? Get real. Are you saying his support for the Mexican Consulate at the "friend price" of $1 is anti-amnesty. Or his support for instate tuition for illegals?
He signed the first no-amnesty pledge a day before the SC Primary and another in just the last week. That's pandering. Romney's changed positions BEFORE the primary season but not since. He didn't create any sanctuary cities - he inherited them.
Oh, come on. Huckabee lied like a rug. Do your homework, and Google up Huckabee +LULAC + Little Rock and have a look at the press coverage of the speech Huckabee gave to the LULAC convention three years ago in Little Rock.
That speech utterly, utterly condemns Huckabee's most recent statements about immigration as lies. Real, palpable, measurable, testable lies.
Oh, and while you're there -- see if you can find the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, I think it was, that ran the photograph of Huckabee giving that speech.....and look who's standing on the podium behind him. Bill Clinton himself. Now ask yourself.......what was Bill Clinton doing there? And then take a good look at that photo. What do you see? Does it make you feel good? Or do you get all queasy inside, because you're suddenly recognizing for the first time that you're dealing with full-grown rogue politicians and that your handle on them is broken? And that Bill Clinton has got more games than anyone on this board can get his mind around?
Go look. Then come back and tell us what you think.
Waiting.
Be nice if Huck was such a winner on the subject when he actually had power. Don’t fool yourself that either Huck or Romney are better than the other on the subject.
what we DO know is McCain is abysmally bad on the subject and a vote for Huckabee is eventually a vote for McCain......so please enjoy the illusion you are taking a stand on illegal immigration because it won’t last past the convention.
