Rick Perry has not once said the word amnesty, nor proposed it.

Oh please. Obama hasn't once used the word "socialism", nor proposed it, but that's what he's giving us.

Once more:

Entering this Country without the proper documents or in an unauthorized area is a crime, 6 months in prison for the first offense and 2 years in prison for the second, felony, offense. No matter what the person does after they commit the crime, they are still criminals. Perry proposes to make these people "legal" with work permits thereby pardoning their past criminal acts.

The definition of amnesty is: "Amnesty: the act of an authority (as a government) by which pardon is granted to a large group of individuals"

If these people are told they do not have to answer for their crimes, this is, by definition, amnesty, pure and simple. It doesn't matter what Perry, or anyone else, wants to call it or how dishonest they want to be about it. If the criminals do not have to answer for their crimes it means they were given amnesty.

Once AGAIN, when you find a candidate or a politician that has the buses and handcuffs or the horses saddled up for the round up march south of 15 million illegal aliens, ya’ll let me know and I will come cheer you on.

Until then somebody needs to find a way to solve the problem. So many of you blither, if we send them home Americans will do those jobs. WELL THAT’S A LIE, as evidenced by Alabama’s crops sitting in the fields rotting and farmers begging for help.

So if you want your food, which these migrant workers have been picking for over 50 years, you’d better be prepared to go knee deep into the fields and pick it.
