Saying that Republicans “ought to be welcoming immigrants” as representatives of the party’s entrepreneurial and family values, a group of major California GOP donors Tuesday issued a public letter urging the state GOP delegation move on immigration reform — now.

The letter from the donors, who include former San Francisco Giants managing general partner Peter Macgowan, conservative writer and analyst David Horowitz, and former Ambassador to the United Kingdom Robert Tuttle, says immigration reform represents both “good politics and good policy.”

They’re urging members of the California delegation to act now to ensure its passage — now.

Here’s a full copy of their letter:

Illegal Aliens aren’t “immigrants”. They are law breakers, and Amnesty rewards their law breaking and encourages more to follow.

“Immigration Reform”? I thought that got dropped into the same hole as all the “Phony Scandals” and nobody in the media is talking about it anymore. Too many good sex scandals going around to worry about the real issues this country faces.

So. Random thoughts -

California GOP = Perpetual Losers in their own state.

California GOP Rich Donors are the California Rich who haven’t left the state yet, which makes them people who are rich from graft obtained through the California Democratic/liberal machine, or illegal hiring of illegals aliens.

Truly amazing to see the GOP at work on this immigration issue. All the stops being pulled out.

It’s third party time.
