Here's what I don't get. If they did enforcement first, showed an ability to shut down the border pretty tight, and shut up about amnesty, there is a good liklihood that people would get less strident about letting some of the illegals here now stay (I wouldn't like it, but I'm probably not the majority in that). So, why is the White House insisting on doing it the stupid way?

Post #8 - great comments, totally nailed it.

I think it would also filter out the La Raza/MS-13 criminal illegals and the ones who truly want to come here and work.

I wouldn't like it either. BUT, if they really did control the border, I think I could learn to live with it.
