Rick Perry: Illegal Immigrants Who Serve In The Military Deserve Citizenship

TPM ^ | August 20, 2011 | Evan McMorris-Santoro

[freedomfiter2]

Why would we want to give military training to non-citizens?

[icanhasbailout]

The illegals ARE NOT getting in

I'm afraid that is not correct.

[South40]

You say you haven't made up your mind but I'll bet you have when it comes to Romney. So your warped logic in that regard fails.

And you said. "It's been around since I was in the military.....40 years or so ago."

So has abortion. According to your warped logic we should accept that also.

As I said, I usually ignore people like you but I couldn't resist, you just made it so easy! :-)

Flame away if you think it makes the case for RINO Rick. But here's a tip -- calling others 'stupid' only makes you look stupid. Really...it does.

[ScreamingFist]

From what part of your derrier did you pull this fantastic piece of fluff?

Uhhhhh, I looked at the recruiting demographics...? Hows the recruiting for personnel going on the East and West coast? Oh that's right, many liberal universities don't allow recruiters on campus. Hit me with some facts noob and then we'll talk.....

[muawiyah]

So, smart guy, how do the illegals get into the military?

[Vevey]

No. You’re entotled to your opinion. I just thought you were either joking or a lefty posing as a Freeper to make conservatives look foolish.

[runninglips]

Immigration, YES. Not people that have come in illegally though.

[HereInTheHeartland]

Doesn't sound like he said “illegals” should get citizenship:

“I think there is a path to citizenship for those young men and women who have served their country,” Perry said in response to a question from NachoFiesta blogger Sean Quinn. “That is a very unique set of individuals, and different than folks who have come here illegally and not given back in that particular way.”

[Ajnin]

Sure, if they do it right, just like they did with Oscar Ortiz.

What the heck are you babbling about? Perry is supporting a program that has been in place for decades. It's not like this just appeared out of thin air. As for abortion, nice try, but has zip to do with this thread.

Julius Caesar had fedoratti (barbarian conscripts) in his command as he conquered Gaul.

Ever since the Social Wars it had been Roman policy to accept conquered people into Roman society and the military on the basis of equality.

That's why Rome won the Social Wars and everybody else lost!

..used to be if you falsified enlistment papers you went to jail.

[Ajnin]

I can’t imagine how an illegal could join our military

They use identity theft and document fraud and they often get help from the recruiters.

[icanhasbailout]

I see. So according to....you....every Hispanic Marine is a gang banging Mexican that has no loyalty to the US. Thank you for the un-biased BS.....

He didn't say anything of the sort.

Why would you make such an evil and false accusation against a U.S. Marine?

[jacknhoo]

Coming from an open borders and amnesty for illegals politician, this is certainly no surprise. At least he is consistently a RINO, gotta give him that.

[South40]

What am I talking about? It wasn't cryptic. Let me draw you a picture since it is obvious it is necessary.

I'm well aware what RINO Rick is supporting; he's supporting granting a path to citizenship to ILLEGAL aliens who serve in the military. I disagree with that position. We should give nothing to ILLEGAL aliens.. Get it? Nothing.

And my analogy to abortion would have been easily understood by any thinking person. Sorry it has escaped you.

[South40]

Exactly. RINO Rick has got these people fooled to the point that they're espousing his liberal viewpoints as if they were something to be proud of. Just read this thread and you will see they have no clue why anyone would or should be against this.

[ScreamingFist]

He didn't say anything of the sort.

Unless you and Ajnin are posting from the same basement, I'm sure a former Marine doesn't need help from a noob lunatic....
