Jeb Bush takes his fellow candidates to Immigration 101 class at the Republican debate
Fusion ^ | 2/14/16 | Jorge Rivas

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush gave his fellow Republican presidential candidates an elementary lesson on immigration at the last debate before the South Carolina primary.

After a moderator asked whether the immigration debate was insufficiently compassionate, Bush responded with a nuanced understanding of why immigrants enter the U.S. without proper authorization.

"The great majority of people that come to this country come because they have no other choice," Bush answered at the debate, hosted by CBS News in Greenville, South Carolina. "These are people coming to provide for their families, and we should show a little more respect for the fact that they're struggling."

Ryan was on Maria Bartiromo's program this AM, ducking her questions right & left about reducing immigration for the sake of job seeking Americans.

I despise open border republicans.

"These are people robbing banks to provide for their families, and we should show a little more respect for the fact that they're struggling."

They are not robbing bank, they are undocumented bank customers. Show some respect.

So we have a “moral obligation” to turn our country into a dump incapable of helping anyone by “allowing” these people to just show up to let us take care of them?

Shut up, HorHay. Jeb didn’t school anyone. He merely showed the world what an imbecile he is. Again.

“”The great majority of people that come to this country come because they have no other choice,””

That must be the “nuance” the author slobbers over.

“(they) come because they have no other choice,” Bush answered

Asked why he robbed banks, (Willie Sutton said) “Because that’s where the money is.”

Get off the stage you grimacing, mugging, shoulder shrugging, tongue-tied, stuttering, gaping, moon faced, empty headed primate!

Jeb, there is always a choice: to obey the law or go to prison.

Prison!

I'm thinking more along the line of labor camps along the southern border with chain gangs working on a wall.
