"... deportation of tens of millions of illegals were even logistically and economically feasible..."

But somehow the processing of this same number for citizenship is possible?

The author is disingenuous at best and a liar at worst. What a liberal mentality.

Why don't all those who want to keep them here at least PAY FOR THEM. But "No", they want to impose their beliefs on us while failing to step up and put THEIR money behind THEIR beliefs.

These illegals do NOTHING to boost our economy, rather diminish it. The majority of their money goes back to their home country, boosting that. The only way to control this is by removing all incentives to stay.

Jessica's self-righteous critics forget that they each won the birth lottery when they emerged on planet Earth from a womb in America rather than in the Sudan, North Korea, or Venezuela. Humans are humans, and most of us seek opportunity where we can find it. Americans, like me, are most blessed to have been born in the land of the free. I did not earn that. It just arrived on my birth certificate. Self-righteousness is very unbecoming. So a little grace and respect for human dignity never hurt anyone. Compassion is a virtue not a vice.

Libertarian twaddle. As if our culture, tradition and history are an accident and not what made this country. We are not the world, we are the United States.

Libertarian twaddle.

Nothing in this guy's bio identifies him as libertarian, let alone Libertarian. You know something we don't ?

I understand the post-national argument. It is derascinated libertarianism utterly incompatable with conservatism. It conserves neither our history, traditions, culture, nor liberty.
