You: “I had to laugh when he was asked why he gave benefits to the kids of illegals, he ran around the issue.”

Huckabee: “We are better than punishing the children for the crimes of the parents.”

Huckabee’s response was spot on.

Huckabee explains that he gave scholarships to kids who were smart, didn't do drugs, earned it, dancing elegantly past the issue that they weren't citizens. Oh yeah, they were "The best students in Arkansas?" That negates the fact that they are illegal, right? Same excuses used by the libs. Sorry. Then, Huckabee pours on the saccarine. "If I didn't get an education, I might be picking lettuce!" ("Who'd rather have Mike Huckabee picking lettuce?" I know I would.)

So when the kids turn 18, are considered adults under the law, we’re supposed to ignore that they are illegal too ?

Sorry, illegal is illegal, period. You can’t just be sorta kinda partially illegal. Either you are or you aren’t; it’s fairly black and white.
