"at the same time treating those who are here with respect and giving them some hope for the future," Carter said.

I'm on the President's side on this issue, but I disagree with Carter. It isn't about treating the illegals with respect. It is about trying to co-opt as large a portion of them as possible so we can get past the hump. It is also about security. Turning 10-20 million illegals into felons would be very bad for our security, and probably chase a lot of hispanics into the open arms of socialist revolutionaries, and islamic jihadists.

That's called appeasement.
