On immigration, all he wants is a time out on the almost unlimited illegal immigration that has become a cancer on the average tax paying American. Do you enjoy seeing billions of CURRENT tax dollars go to house, feed, educate and medicate these people while we continue to heap billions of DEBT on the shoulders of upcoming generations. It's like this amigo, do a search on "reconquista", "anchor babies", "aztlan" and check out www.americanpatrol.com for a couple weeks, learn something, then get back to me.
Excellent post AS. Those are indeed Pat's long-standing positions on trade and immigration. For the neo-cons it is far easier to grossly misrepresent PB's positions with the usual dose of name calling than it is to defend the sorry state America has been brought to by irresponsible trade and immigration policies. Given that PB has written political columns for decades, hosted political shows, and authored a number of books it is all too tempting for his detractors to take many of his past statements out of context and purposely, as a lawyer would do, twist the statements into something they are not. The worse thing a public figure can do in this age of PC is speak the truth. And I give Pat a lot of credit for telling it like it is.
