RE :”And if a person in this situation wants to get in the line to get a green card, they can get in the line like any other immigrant, only at the back of the line, because we want to be fair to that legal immigrant who did everything right in the first place,” said Ryan. “We think that's the right way to go. That's the opposite of amnesty.”

This is my takeaway point from Ryan, him claiming that giving those who came here and lived here illegally permanent legalization and citizenship is not amnesty because that is putting them to ‘ the back of the line’.
This is the Rubio line too.

As my tagline says, giving them citizenship while allowing them (ilegals) to live and work here is pushing them to the front of the line, so Rubio and Ryan are outright lying.

This song and dance seems to be aimed at poorly informed constituents (and congresscritters who want to pretend that they are "against amnesty" of course).

The illegal aliens have never been here legally...

They have not ever earned immigration or a green card or citizenship

I’ve never been to Harvard...

Let’s see what Ryan has to say...

Paul Ryan: Harvard Plan Says Nana Goes ‘On Probation’ Then ‘Gets a Diploma’

After all...

It’s only fair..

Great. So if I rob a bank, I go on probation and keep the money. Cool...

They don’t think enough people are smart enough to catch this.
