Reagan granted all illegals amnesty.

Not really, just some of the farmworkers. Or that's who it was intended for prior to the massive fraud. But even so it was a compromise that he agreed to in a bill which included massive numbers of new border control guards and tough employer sanctions. It was also supposed to be a one-time only deal.

It's very telling how you insist on ignoring his various statements on the need to control the borders for purposes of sovereignty with strong penalties against those who hire the illegals. Yours and the Wall St. Journals and Bush's position on this issue are 180 degrees different then his.

Where did you get that? The only condition I remember was the time consideration.

Do you have a source or is that something you just made up?

And Reagan didn't do it as a compromise with Democrats, he did it because he thought it needed doing. You may have Bush Sr.'s tax increase in mind.

Ignore them? I've never heard them. Can you provide some of them?
