“When Newt called the illegals “citizens”...even though they might have been law-abiding....just lost ME!”
Wake up, people.
If anybody thinks we are EVER going to deport 11-20 million people, many of whom are registered Democrat voters, you need to step away from the meth pipe...
The answer is now, as it has always been.
CONTROL THE BORDER FIRST. Then, and ONLY then, are other “solutions” even possible.
The proponents of amnesty are wont to create the false choice between a blanket amnesty and mass deportation of 12 to 20 million illegal aliens. In reality, we have other choices and alternatives that don’t reward people who have broken our laws with the right to stay and work here and an eventual path to citizenship. The 12 to 20 million illegal aliens did not enter this country overnight and they will not leave overnight. Attrition through enforcement works. We have empirical data from Georgia, Oklahoma, and Arizona proving that it does.
Exactly....so long as they don’t get citizenship. Newt’s answer is perfect to me. It’s PRACTICAL.

I would LOVE to send a bunch of them back. I am a minority in my American town. It’s not pleasant. I can’t speak Spanish so I feel like a foreigner being left out of the conversation. You have to live here to understand....
Bust the big businesses that hire illegal aliens, like Tyson Foods, Cargill, and Swiftco, cut the welfare to illegal aliens, and shut down the Mexican Consulates, and most of them will leave on their own.
