SEAN HANNITY, HOST: But as The Washington Examiner's Byron York points out, opponents of the legislation probably forgot to read the bill in the first place, noting, quote, "It is the criticism of the law that is over the top, not the law itself." Now if protesters actually sat down to read the law they would find that racial profiling is explicitly prohibited. In fact, proof of citizenship can only be requested by the authorities during, quote, "lawful contact" by police. meaning the individual is already suspected of breaking the law. It's all right there in the legislation. But the left, well, they don't want you to know that. Governor, your reaction first of all to the law and the reaction by the left?
SARAH PALIN, FORMER ALASKA GOVERNOR: Well, thankfully, Byron York he hit the nail on the head in summarizing what this law really is about. There is no ability or opportunity in there for the racial profiling. And shame on the lame stream media again for turning this into something that it is not. Governor Jan Brewer did what she had to do as the CEO of that state. To help protect the citizens of her state she had to do what the federal government has refused to do, and that is help secure the borders. I think it's shameful, too, that the Obama administration has allowed, too, this to become more of a racial issue by perpetuating this myth that racial profiling is a part of this law.

Would anyone care to explain this part to me?
“It’s not fair to illegal immigrants either, who do want to many of them want to come here and find that pathway to citizenship. They, wanting to seek the right way to get over here.
This is allowing them, though, a dis-opportunity. They’re going to have to hide while they’re here. They’re not going to be able to seize the opportunities that they sought coming over here.
So it’s a lose-lose all around proposal all around for President Obama and his administration to ignore their responsibility and not enforce the laws that are existing.”
It’s simple: “The Path she means is going through the Naturalization Process the legal way like other immigrants who want to be Americans.”

Enforcing the law is not racist. Not enforcing the law based on skin-color and/or country of origin is racist.
:-) for all three. Thanks.
Ping!
Ok, if we pretend that Hispanics (Mexicans) do not compromise 80% of the illegals in America, let’s ask this question about illegal immigration - If America is determined to NOT enforce its immigration laws to encourage more Hispanics to invade America, would the same sentiments be expressed if the majority of illegals in America were from western Europe? Would there be the same outrage against Arizona “ racially profiling” illegals if 80% of those illegals were from England, Ireland, Scotland, France, Germany, Finland, Holland, Denmark, etc., etc., etc.???
Inquiring minds . . . . . . .
I’d like to know how much you expect your eggs & bacon to cost?
Union chickens are bad.
Union chickens are not just bad they are outright EVIL!
What do you believe the price of strawberries will be without Mexican imported labor?
Do you believe the price of hamberur will be up or down?
I’m more concerned with the preservation of the nation than with the price of rice.
cool.
I also live in a rural area and am Jewish. Welcome to FR.
What do you believe the price of strawberries will be if the government stops paying people to NOT work through the various welfare programs. You'd have a sudden influx of Americans doing the jobs that "Americans will not do".
And frankly, I don't care about the price of strawberries. If they're too expensive, I'll grow my own.
What do you think is going to be the price of strawberries when these 20 million people vote en masse Democrat/socialist?
AND SARAH PALIN SUPPORTS A PATH TO CITIZENSHIP.
When 25 Million Americans are out of work.
I love you, guy!
