You can wish me all the luck in the world, but it doesn't change the fact that Newt's proposal is amnesty. Lots of people support amnesty, it's not a dirty word, many people oppose amnesty, even if it is called something else.
If this is Newt's plan, than he should come out and say "yes, amnesty is part of my plan, but I think it is still the best plan because...". Trying to parse words, a la Clinton, should be beneath the "smartest man in the room".
In view of the fact we’ve aborted so many future taxpayers it may be to our advantage to incorporate and educate a robust influx of immigrants instead of taking the route of niggardly fear and brute force.
