Only rabidly IGNORANT fools will criticize the sensible action that the President and Congress are putting into place.

Could you elaborate on exactly what it is that you believe they are putting into place?

A set of requirements such as pay a fine, obtain a postive health screen, pass a criminal background check, and demonstrate basic citizenship knowledge as justifiable reasons for being converted from an illegal alien into a legal immigrant.

Also a route to citizenship for those who want it, even if (maybe "especially if") they have been in this country illegally for years - "cutting ahead" of those who applied for citizenship under the present legal regime.

Increasing border and interior enforcement, while reducing the hurdles for obtaining the status of legal immigrant.

Increasing the number of visas.

In general, legitimizing the presence of what are presently illegal aliens.

As for the details, obviously in a state of flux as Congress is debating the matter. And there are additional details (e.g., tuition arrangements, cooperation of government authorities other than federal immigration enforcement) absent from the short list of bullet points above.

The RINO contingent has a Boehner, they're not thinking clearly.
