Crimney, reading those quotes, I wonder if she even knows what amnesty really means. At best, she was woefully unprepared for the aggressiveness of O’Reilly’s questions. At worst, she hasn’t given the issue any serious thought beyond punching her conservative ticket with the right soundbites.
I have a strong suspicion that it’s the latter. It’s doesn’t say much more of her if it was the former, though - O’Reilly does the same thing to every guest, so there isn’t much excuse for being unprepared.
That's a pretty good description of the amount of though she's put into any national policy issue (except, maybe, some topics related to energy). The woman's a lightweight, and there's no getting around it.
