I know Hostettler personally. He is a good man and an authentic conservative.

Didn't say he wasn't. But he's still a career politician.

His stance on immigration......is superb.

Didn't say it wasn't. So is Behney's.

This comes down to term limits and getting rid of the corruption in Washington which is the elimination of CAREER POLITICIANS. That's IT in a nutshell for me.

Like I said, should Hostettler win - I will support him in November.

Pretty good, but he did not say specifically how he would deal with the illegal aliens already here. I would have loved to hear him say that he favors attrition thru enforcement. Here is the pledge that we have asked candidates to make:

“I pledge to oppose amnesty or any other special path to citizenship for the millions of foreign nationals unlawfully present in the United States. As a member of Congress, I will support the full implementation of enforcement measures that, over time, will lead to the attrition of our illegal immigrant population. I also pledge to make security of our borders a top priority.”

Specifically this pledge means that:

1. The 12 to 20 million illegal aliens now here will have to go home.

2. They will not receive any legal status while here that allows them to remain long-term.

3. Once in their home countries, they may apply for re-admittance to the U.S. as immigrants, visitors or temporary workers through normal channels.

4. But they will not receive any special privileges on the basis of their having been in the U.S. illegally, such as being put to the front of a line.

5. There will be no new categories or programs through which they may re-enter.

6. There will not be an expansion of green cards in any existing categories that will speed up their movement to the front of the line.

Do you think Behney would be willing to sign such a pledge?
