Conservative columnist and multiple-time number one New York Times bestselling author Ann Coulter told Breitbart News that Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s boldly stated position on immigration when it comes to protecting Americans from illegal and legal immigration is “fantastic” and “amazing.”
“YES! Fantastic, amazing, just what I’ve been waiting for! Romney, of course, said exactly this and also endorsed E-Verify and a fence on the border,” Coulter said when asked to react to Walker’s statements—and all the political establishment from both sides of the aisle and the media attacking him—on Tuesday.
“I’m bitter and cynical, but I don’t know how a candidate can weasel out of having endorsed E-Verify,” Coulter said. “Talking about a secure border – as most of them do – is easy to weasel out of. That’s code for ‘amnesty.’ (How will we know when it’s secure? A: When a board of amnesty-supporters tells us it’s secure! Thanks, Rand.)”
Coulter added that Walker is exposing the “cheap labor hacks” for what they are.
“Glad to hear Walker is smoking out the cheap labor hacks,” she said. “What on Earth are they saying? He gave them no opening! Walker said, quite properly, that we can’t keep doing this to our poor and working class. Are they saying we shouldn’t care about our poor and working class?”

I don’t understand Ann’s infatuation with Romney. He was clearly lying about his stance on illegal aliens during the campaign as he was for McCain/Kennedy in 2006 and endorsed Rubio’s Gang of Eight bill after he lost in 2012. He was caught TWICE employing illegal aliens to landscape his mansion in MA. He would not have stopped the cheap labor importation/invasion if he had been elected.
Wonder what Laura Ingraham will have to say about this. Her “passion” is immigration and she doesn’t miss a beat in featuring who supports and who opposes her views on the subject.
Agreeing with Romney isn't exactly a ringing endorsement in my book.
“Whatever you think of either Coulter or Walker, I think she’s right on this one.”
I agree whole-heartedly. I applaud both of them.
I do too. There is a huge untapped reservoir of votes for a socially and fiscally conservative candidate who will deal with trade and immigration issues in a manner which places the interests of those already in the country legally ahead of prospective votes. The longer the legitimate concerns of this bloc of votes isn’t addressed, the worse the reaction will be when critical mass is achieved.
The politicians have no idea. Voters would turn out in droves for such a candidate, but most of the Dems and Repubs have a completely different agenda than doing what the sensible, law-abiding and hard-working branch of We the People want their elected representatives to do.
Actually, that is exactly what they are saying, but neither the Democrats or GOPe will be honest about it.
As long as the poor stay poor, they will reliably vote Democrat because it means more free $h*t which they don't have to pay for.
As long as the working class is looking over their shoulder at immigrants who will work for even less, they won't get too uppity toward their GOPe and rich Democrat plantation owners.
Yes, she is.
“cheap labor hacks”
I like it!
Walker is another Romney..and youre bitter, Ann..
yes OK..
thanks for the warning...
Wish we could combine Ted Cruz and Scott Walker into one candidate. I like them both alot. Cruz only comes across a bit too sissy like. Be cool if he were an avid hunter and outdoorsman. I also question if people will follow him into battle. For sure Obama is leading us into another set of wars very soon. I think by the Summer we are going to be knee deep in the ME and perhaps elsewhere. We are too vulnerable.
The left want’s unlimited illegals for cheap labor, and an unlimited voter base.
The right want’s unlimited illegals for cheap labor, and a totally compliant permanent underclass.
To both the left and the right, illegals represent their answer to the abolition of slavery in the US, and as an antidote against the threat of a rising middle class.
Walker’s comments on putting American workers first is guaranteed to rattle some cages in DC, and we should see the long knives coming out of the corners of the political class in the near future.
You think Cruz is a sissy? He didn’t look like one at the firing range! On the other hand, every time I see Walker I hear the “It’s a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood” theme song from Mr. Rogers.
As for ME wars. I think Obama and this folly of an Iran deal will push Israel to act.
The worst thing for blacks who hope to rise out of poverty is a flood of illegals. Now, if Walker could point that truth out to black Americans—
Walker survived the liberal long knives in Wisconsin....three times. He has beaten a national effort to throw him out.
This position on immigration is absolutely BRILLIANT.
Walker is known for breaking the public sector unions and turning Wisconsin into a Right to Work state.
The first thing the liberals will do is accuse him of being "anti-worker".
By taking this position on immigration, Walker just destroyed the only liberal argument against him that could have any traction.
If Walker wins the nomination, I suggest he appoint Cruz as Attorney General.
Cruz will dismantle the ATF.
Cruz will reform the FBI
Cruz will enforce our border laws and deport every illegal criminal picked up.
That is a far, far better use of Cruz than the VP slot.
Cruz can do all those things as President.
What has Walker said he would do?
