At the 6:00 mark, Governor Walker states he is not in favor of amnesty.
Define amnesty.
FINALY!!!!! What I knew all along. Now all you liars better start apologizing to this incredible man who is our next President of the United States.
(for general population not you specifically EEE).
Neither was Mario Rubio until he got elected.
he pretty well ducked mot of that question. he’s going to need a better answer to this question pretty quickly
Liberal Republicans have their own definition of amnesty, just as John McShame.
Then tell me how you intend to remove them, otherwise you are indeed for amnesty.
He’s pro amnesty.
Bushs, Cristies, Rubios and Romneys need not apply.
Listen you TEA PARTY LOSERS:
Walker DOES NOT FAVOR AMNESTY! NEVER HAS, NEVER WILL.
Walker, like most reasonable people, does favor a “path to citizenship” for those who came here without full documentation. But that’s not the same as Amnesty, as there’s a $10 processing fee to become a citizen and thus punishment will be had.
SO STOP MISREPRESENTING HIM!
I would have a lot more respect for him if he was honest. A week ago he was talking about how he really wanted these hard working illegal aliens here. Now he’s claiming he’s not in favor of amnesty. Shut up!
Another lying politician.
Beware of campaign rhetoric! Always check the record.
After what every single RINO/elite/establishment type has done, there are still conservatives falling for this scheme?! It seems to happen every election cycle. It happened when they had Marco out there pimping amnesty for Schmucky Schumer. They’d swear up and down that as long as they charged them a fee, it’s not amnesty.
Shame on any conservative who votes for someone based on “it’s not amnesty,” because they’ve been fooled twice, probably even more times. How dumb can people get. Conservatives falling for this mess again deserve what will happen. Unfortunately, the rest of us will have to suffer for their naive stupidity right along with them.
How many of the pro-amnesty turds like McCain, Graham, Bush, et al have ever said they were “pro-amnesty”?
Walker is in the pocket of the Chamber. He may not call it amnesty, but he wants to give illegals the opportunity to stay and become citizens. That’s amnesty....even if the good Governor doesn’t want to admit it.
He said "we've got to have a healthy balance"; "we can't ignore the laws (and) we can't ignore the people who have come in"; "question: "is deporting them possible?" "answer: "that's not what I'm advocating" "we've got to find a way for people to have a legitimate legal immigration system, and that doesn't mean amnesty".
That sounds like amnesty to me. It all depends on the meaning of the word "amnesty", doesn't it? In my book, "balance" between our laws and "the people who have come in" is amnesty. Opposing deportation is amnesty. Finding "a way for people to have a legitimate legal immigration system" means regularizing (a Romney term), i.e. legalizing illegal immigrants. That is amnesty in my political dictionary.
These are precisely the word games that Loretta Lynch was playing with Sen. Cruz last week on the subject of illegal immigration.
If I were a supporter of Gov. Walker for President, I certainly would not be touting this interview to conservatives on the topic of immigration. Whatever his position is on the topic, what he said was, charitably, a confused muddle.
I love him, but yes you are.
he’s one of maybe three republicans i’ve supported with my hard earned dollars who’ve got a chance to earn my vote (full disclosure: i’m not a republican.) and yet some people here are putting words their in his mouth to throw him under their bus. sad. very sad.
This means nothing to me and probably holds as much water as “read my lips, no new taxes” from a former alleged “conservative president” when he was campaigning for the job in 1988.
I’m still a firm believer that if you make it illegal to hire them, rent to them, or give them food stamps and other benefits, they will deport themselves. When they try to rob and steal to get what they want, and are caught, deport them. Get rid of the anchor baby law. Secure the border regardless of the cost. It costs much more to give them amnesty. Even though the cost of catching and deporting is enormous, the cost of keeping them is more.
I wonder if he’ll admit or even knows that Islam is our enemy?
