If anyone is really in favor of free trade and free markets they’d support this totally. Free markets and free trade cannot exist unless labor is just as free to move as capital, entrepreneurship, technology and other factors of production.
I don’t favor the free movement of labor, but unless one does support it, then they don’t really support free trade and free markets. And that’s also why we should not pretend we have free trade, or free markets (internationally), because the bastardized arrangements we’ve ended up with most always benefit our trading partners to our detriment.
This requires a bit of translation..what he really means is anyone from Mexico and all points south can come to the US & Canada, but not vice versa...oh...that’s what we have now!
This is actually what Bush was planning to do before 9/11 made it politically impossible to do publicly.
Instead what he did was to leave the borders open unofficially.
It was part of the NAU program that was underway at the time. That program was put on the back burner but it will likely be back.
logical? logical? logical? on what planet?
I have stopped reading NewsMax since they started posting pro-amnesty tripe. Shame on you, Chris Ruddy. A “novel” idea, my ass, traitors.
Ugh
what a bunch of fools
Would you like to know what Cuban born Al Cardenas, the head of the ACU (American Conservative Union) and one of the powers that be at CPAC think about the Gang of 8’s Amnesty??
Ready???
“Statement from ACU Chairman Al Cardenas on Immigration Legislation
Published: January 28, 2013
Contact: Laura Rigas, (202) 347-9388, lrigas@conservative.org
“It seems that a growing number of Democrats & Republicans in Congress have found common ground on agreed-upon principles for immigration reform.
Congratulations to both sides of the aisle in forging a responsible framework today. Difficult days lay ahead in working out specifics on the legislation itself, but the Senate is off to a good start and I encourage the House to follow suit.”[snip]
It’s not by accident that Grover Norquist, who wrote the Bush amnesty & destroyed every immigration reform ever made is in league with CPAC, ACU who is headed by Al Cardenas, another AMNESTY pusher. Do you understand that these men have hijacked the tea party movement to further their own goals?

[snip]Ooooh, looky here:
This page lists board of directors of the American Conservative Union, which hosts CPAC. The page isn’t easy to find, most likely because it shows both Grover Norquist and fellow mole Suhail Khan. Grover is keeping a low profile; as of this writing, I don’t see him on the speakers’ roster.
The ACU chairman is Al Cardenas,who has been pushing for another amnesty for illegal aliens.He actually expects us to believe that giving eleven million illegal aliens (including a large number of Muslim infiltrators) will “stimulate the conservative electorate.”
