Palin: we need to close the borders. They are called illegal aliens for a reason and if they are not going to follow the rules they should not be in our country.
Palin finally speakson immigration
From the article:
Heres another dash of cold water for those right-wingers, like me, who worked so hard to convince themselves that Sarah Palin just must have Buchananite views on the issues because of her down-home charm and moose-hunting prowess.
In an interview with Univision, she told us what she really thinks about immigration:
Univision:As governor, how do you deal with them? Do you think they all should be deported?
Palin:
There is no way that in the US we would roundup every illegal immigrantthere are about 12 million of the illegal immigrantsnot only economically is that just an impossibility but thats not a humane way anyway to deal with the issue that we face with illegal immigration.
UnivsisionDo you then favor an amnesty for the 12 or 13 million undocumented immigrants?
PalinNo, I do not. I do not.
Not total amnesty. [Emphasis added.] You know, people have got to follow the rules. Theyve got to follow the bar, and we have got to make sure that there is equal opportunity and those who are here legally should be first in line for services being provided and those opportunities that this great country provides.
UnivisionTo clarify, so you support a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants?
PalinI do because I understand why people would want to be in America. To seek the safety and prosperity, the opportunities, the health that is here. It is so important that yes, people follow the rules so that people can be treated equally and fairly in this country.

Posting old propaganda is typical of those who want an Obama 2nd term
This is some of Sarah Palin’s current statements
Palin expands her position on Illegal Immigration
Palin: we need to close the borders. They are called illegal aliens for a reason and if they are not going to follow the rules they should not be in our country.
Its pretty simple I ratched that one down to the simple answer because its an easier answer than some politicians want it to make it be. you close the borders. You get more agressive about cracking down on the illegal aliens and we take it serious what our border patrol officers are trying to do
December 2009
Lars Larson radio talk show
LARS: The amnesty proposal that was defeated in Congress in your view, was that amnesty for illegals and would you back amnesty for a path to citizenship, as the current president calls it?
SARAH PALIN: No, Im not for amnesty. Lets ratchet this down quite simply to remember what were referring to. Illegal aliens are called illegal for a reason. We need to secure our borders and I am not for amnesty.
And there are humane ways to deal with the 11-13 million illegal aliens who are in our country right now, but if theyre not going to follow the rules, they need to get out.
