What is Cains stance on all of this stuff today?

He keeps changing his tune.
Bachmann too.

That is no defense of RINO Rick. But then, there really isn't one.

I am not the Cain spokesman around here, though I do try to stick to the facts.

Far as I can determine, Cain has not recently answered the question directly, as to what to do about the 12M illegals already here. The only statement I could find from him on this point goes back to June 2007, when he mentioned a “reasonable program” for the 12M, and an expansion of the temporary worker program. The statement reads:

“The Immigration Bill could have succeeded if the political class in Congress and the president had listened to the public and addressed the four distinct problems. Namely,

secure the borders convincingly,
expand the temporary worker program for skilled legal immigrants,
establish a reliable legal immigrant identification program
and then propose a reasonable program for the 12 million (and counting) illegal persons who broke our laws to get here, but not amnesty.”

During the present campaign, Cain has not been asked about these 12M yet. I’m looking forward to that moment. In the meantime, the closest he comes to it is when he says “enforce the law!” The law, however, does not stipulate that illegal residents SHALL be deported, only that they can be. Generally speaking it’s up to a judge. Twelve million defendants...what do you think the decision would be?
