I thought it was kinda funny that he went from talking tough and saying we can’t compromise with the left to seeking compromise on the border.
Let’s not.
He also sets up a straw man with the 25 years, etc., then acts nobler than thou in slapping it down. It was all an artifice intended to make the Republican mainstream look heartless.
Gingrich does not care about being “humane.” He is just obeying his masters.
Not only are we heartless, we’re not even human!
Don't be so heartless...Neut was showing his softer side ;)
This could easily be the end of his campaign
Newt was doing so well, then just cow flopped...
agreed
As an American citizen, I would toss them in a minute. As for separating them from their families, I would not. I would send the entire family back to the countries they came from. The children born here can come back when they are of age.
So you would deport American citizens as part of your immigration plan?
The longer they’ve been here ILLEGALY, the more they’ve compounded their crime. They should be the first to get the boot, along with their anchors.
You mean Amnesty for Americans??
When you think about it that makes more sense that giving amnesty to foreign invaders sucking down our resources and tax dollars.
Plus he is advocating a strategy that equals certain death for the Republican party, as has already happened in California.
I didn’t see this debate, but this doesn’t sound good.
I’m more troubled though by him taking that 1.6 million from FNMA and Freddie Mac. That just reeks of insider and playoffs.
I guess I thought Newt was cleaner than that.
A crime is a crfime no matter how long ago someone committed it. Anyone who came here illegally for any reason whatsoever, the rule of law must prevail! Or we become a rule of men, which is the fast route to destruction.
He may be a good debater,but that is no indication of what kind of a president this egomaniacal flip floppling amnesty loving phoney would make.
As Judy Holiday once said in a movie, , “I can’t stan’ ‘im”!
Absolutely!
Especially the “Law Abiding Citizens” comment!
I would leave it up to the parents whether to take them with them or not. It won’t be the government deciding.
Who’ll bet that 5 years from now the illegals will still be here even if your boy wins!
Bush did the same thing with that "compassionate Conservatism" nonsense.
We can’t be humane, we’re HEARTLESS.
Deport them all! I bet it would end unemployment overnight.
