People here don’t hate hispanics. People here hate politicians who ignore the well being of American citizens and pander to illegal aliens in the hope of getting votes, illegal votes at that.
That is what people hate. And for good reason. The legal American citizens gets thrown under the bus and made to pay with their lives and money for people who break the law.
How many Americans can go to Mexico and get free food, health care, and pandered to by the Mexican government?
And we know that's not about to happen. Perry supported Texas' pro-ILLEGAL alien Dream Act in 2001 when he signed it and supports it still. He was even willing to torpedo his campaign over it by telling those who did not support it they "have no heart". And don't forget how he went down to Mexico to brag about it when it passed. These aren't the actions of a man who is soft on his position. He thinks ILLEGAL aliens deserve taxpayer subsidized handouts and he thinks you are wrong if you disagree. That is, of course, why he is polling in single digits and why he will never be POTUS.
Yeah they were pretty supportive of Perry a few months back when they thought he had a shot. Now they’ve moved on to another candidate they think will screw the tea party.
Hispanic is NOT a Synonym of “illegal”.
Here’s Newt Gingrich’s stance on illegal aliens...
“In three years and eight months, we defeated fascist Italy, Nazi Germany and imperial Japan. Today, we can’t build a (border) fence,” Gingrich said. “I would propose cutting off all federal funds to any city that declares itself a sanctuary city.”
He said that if UPS and FedEx could keep track of millions of packages a day, the federal government should be able to track illegal immigrants in the country.
But Gingrich added: “I don’t believe we’ll ever pass a bill which requires us to hunt down every single person” who has been in this country for some time illegally.
Gingrich also said he would favor a “very sophisticated, very clean” guest worker program.
“I think we should go back to the World War Two selective service model where local citizens are certified at a local level, where they actually know the person,” he said.
“If the person is a good citizen, has genuine ties to the United States, has genuine roots, they still don’t get amnesty, they still don’t get citizenship, they still don’t get the right to vote. They do get the legal right to be a resident.”
What happened to the Roman Empire that you loved so much when they allowed the Goths to cross the Danube?
