Lars Larson radio talk show
LARS: The amnesty proposal that was defeated in Congress — in your view, was that amnesty for illegals and would you back amnesty for a path to citizenship, as the current president calls it?
SARAH PALIN: No, I’m not for amnesty. Let’s ratchet this down quite simply to remember what we’re referring to. Illegal aliens are called “illegal” for a reason. We need to secure our borders and I am not for amnesty.
And there are humane ways to deal with the 11-13 million illegal aliens who are in our country right now, but if they’re not going to follow the rules, they need to get out.
Pretty much exactly in line with the usual McCain Republican talking points.
There isn’t a dime’s worth of difference between her position and McCain’s. He says he doesn’t support amnesty too.
Do you know anyone who believes him?
All they’ve done is play with words. But a pathway to citizenship IS amnesty. Every thinking conservative knows this.
Thanks for jumping in, guys. I was starting to feel a little alone in the battle.
