Amnesty.

Now, if we made them apply for the guest worker program in their home country, those who really do want to work would go back across the border at their own expense. We wouldn't have to spend money deporting them. Those who stay, are obviously not here to work. They're here illegally, and don't wish to become legal. Deport them.

"Amnesty. "

Yep. When Jorge says he objects to amnesty, it means he objects to calling it amnesty. Granting legal status to those who have been here illegally is amnesty. Period. Sure, they have to pay a fine and go thru a procedure -- but so did those who took Carter up on his draft dodger amnesty. The difference was Carter wasn't afraid to call an amnesty an amnesty. El Presidente must misunderestimate the intelligence of the American people to think they won't see thru this ruse. We're not that stupid, even if he wants to treat us as if we are.

There are many threads about the speech on FR tonight. Those on FR who want to trash the republic with open borders; and just love illegality if it'll get 'em more foreign invaders lost tonight. Lost big.
