“”let’s be humane in enforcing the law WITHOUT GIVING THEM CITIZENSHIP””
Why can’t we first enforce the laws and build a fence, and only then, if those have been successful, consider further actions?
Every amnesty idea is always pushed so that few nice illegals get some benefits and there will aggressive enforcement. There never is any enforcement and leftists courts and administration always extend and enlarge the amnesty. If they get legal status, then in the next phase they would demand citizenship (and in anycase, they would be able to get it easier if they already have legal status).
Perry and Newt are unacceptable. I was hoping that Newt would moderate his radical views, but he doubling-down just like Perry.
Well obvious there isn't a willingness to enforce laws which are so complicated and full of burocricy that attorneys use every loop hole around them so they're tied up in ocurts for years.....that's why Newt did say the first order is to secure the border.
Newt...."I think you’ve got to deal with this as a comprehensive approach that starts with controlling the border,....“I do believe if you’ve been here recently and have no ties to the US, we should deport you...... I do believe we should control the border.... ...I do believe we should have very severe penalties for employers.
“Perry and Newt are unacceptable. I was hoping that Newt would moderate his radical views, but he doubling-down just like Perry.”
Agreed. Their open borders, amnesty predilictions are bad enough, but their in-your-face approach is even more infuriating.
I can’t vote for another George Bush/John McCain warm over.
