This "no fault of their own" BS is nothing more than concentrated horse pucky from politicians who are seeking a permanent crowd of support by buying the most number of illegal supporters.
Bush 43 was too stupid to realize that it wasn't working for him and the illegals AND their illegal spawn all detested him.
As for Perry, his Democratic roots still come out and trip him up, periodically, and Texas politics is littered with some of his worst liberal ideas. At the end of the day, he talks a good story, but he walks a different line. Hopefully, Perry and Romney will both deliver each other's knockout punch and open the field up to someone else like Cain, or Sarah if she decides to enter the fray.
and what will you do when Palin offers up the same program, maybe in different words?
She has mentioned registering illegals, not deporting them
When she is pinned to the wall she will mutter the same ideas. Educate and assimilate, not deport.
Cain is a businessman and one of the heaviest lobbies in Perry’s state of Texas supporting this stuff is the business community, looking for (cheap) pools of educated labor. Not that Cain will head up the national ticket. Ever.
