“Anchor baby” and “Amnesty” are terms you can twist so that you don’t sound like you are for what you are for. Your definitions are the same as Bush and Guiliani. But the rest of us understand that if someone who broke our laws to get here is allowed to stay here - that is amnesty. That is why the last 3 or 4 amnesty bills failed, even though the word “amnesty” was never in them and those that touted them were for ‘comprehensive immigration reform’. The American people understood the difference and knew they were being lied to.

So you need to quit lying to yourself and just accept that you are for amnesty and for anchor babies. (Which, BTW, means that the family gets welfare and food stamps and free medical, all at taxpayer’s expense - the term never had anything to do with deportation, but with free handouts. The term was used even when deportations were common.)

If you are going to invent brand new definitions for words that have nothing to do with their actual meaning or etymology or historical use, be my guest.

But I'll stick to what words mean in English, not what they mean in CottonBallese.
