Still posting the “report card” that lumps in legal immigration with illegal immigration?

Fred Thompson voted against general amnesty, against welfare for illegals, and to improve border security.

Fred Thompson voted against general amnesty, against welfare for illegals, and to improve border security.

And he voted against ending chain migration twice. He voted that it's OK to fire Americans and hire cheaper foriegn labor 3 times. He voted against stiffer penalties for those who hire illegals. He tried to kill voluntary pilot programs for workplace verification. He agreed to doubling of H1-B visas but opposed anti fraud measures. He voted for amnesty for 1 million Cubans and Nicaraguans.

Basically he voted against some amnesty and proceded to dump buckets of bait into the water. You can hope those issues go away and I'll continue to hope for a green sky in the morning but at the end of the day those issues are going to be the noose that hangs him.
