For instance:
"Many of the illegals are potential conservatives and potential Republicans -- they have lower unemployment and crime rates than the public generally..."
Tony, the numbers of illegals filling our jails has been estimated at @ 30%. And can you cite your source of unemployment figures for illegals?
I also have a problem with this statement:
" My suggestion is to figure out which want to be citizens and insist they do what's necessary: Work, learn the language, stay off welfare, obey the laws."
"INSIST"? How are we suppose to pull this off? Why don't we "insist" on illegals being deported? And who cares if THEY "want to become citizens"?
Why assume it's already a fait accompli that we MUST concede solutions to what most Americans already reject -- Amnesty for Illegal Invaders?
Mike Pence for President in 2008!
The Senate immigration compromise wont do.
