Huckabee considers himself an Evangelical leader, so I suppose he speaks for the entire group. < / sarcasm >

“Religion writer Sarah Posner recently reported on polling showing that a majority of evangelicals want Congress to pass immigration reform and support a path to citizenship.”

That doesn’t mean it’s the right thing to do. Most religious institutions, including the Catholic Church, are woefully misinformed on this subject. At best, they have only one slice of the entire story.

This is where TC’s leadership will come in.

They never polled me, but I certainly believe in a "path to citizenship"...right back to the country in which they are actually a citizen. I'll be happy to show them that path!! Whoever is going to be the candidate needs to say, "No reform, just enforcement".

The “evangelicals” the authoer is refering to are the lefty, non-Christian types.
Christians by and large want the rule of law enforced! Americans by and large want it enforced.
We would love a man or woman who would enforce the law and not try to make up new ones to skirt existing laws. It’s cutting thru the crap the media throws out there again principled people that is the problem. Crap like this piece.

I don’t believe it. Illegal immigration is illegal and should not be supported by Christians. I am born again and I don’t support it. We can be hospitable in a charitable sense but we should not commit public resources to this. Visitors to our country should obey civil laws and authorities. Public programs authorized by Congress should be targeted to American citizens and should feature policies which encourage citizens to improve themselves and to become self supporting to the maximum extent possible.

Media into overdrive to find ANY way to discredit the man. The louder the invective, the more suitable a candidate he is.

The path already exists - for LEGAL immigrants.

One basic fact about immigration reform that continues to get lost in the noise is that evangelical Christians support it.

Well I suppose you could say that I support immigration reform. I want to reform our actual practices so that we allow the INS to perform their jobs; that we stop illegal invasions; that we revoke 'anchor baby' auto-citizenship; that we basically act like a sovereign Nation (and like every other Nation in the world that protects their borders).

Yes, I am all for Immigration Reform, because our current practices are set-up to destroy a Nation's integrity and uniqueness.

I support immigration reform. But my reform involves slashing legal immigration, banning all immigration by muslims, sharply increasing deportation of illegals and building a wall on our southern border.

I’m on Cruz Control! Had my bumper sticker for 2 yrs.! America’s Bibi. Truth hurts liberal scum. This is our last chance to elect a Godly man of conviction. If Hitlery wins, it’s time for the reeducation camps and confiscated financial assets!

Greg Sargent thinks Jim Wallis is an Evangelical? Wallis is to Evangelicals is what popcorn is to chocolate pudding--there ain't no similarity, McGee. I would put it more simply: Wallis hates Evangelicals despite his statements and comments to the contrary.

So Sargent rides into the battling waving his journalistic sword and gets it wrong on the very first fell swoop. How precious.

Amnesty is a smokescreen issue to avoid the real issue - the border. Amnesty shouldn’t even be discussed until the border is sealed.
