It means she supporters a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants. I don’t see what your complaint could possibly be without her actually saying what that path to citizenship would be. I for one would be happy with

Go Back to sender
No charges pressed
You can return to the country once the border has been secured
If you can prove employment for >= 6 months you don’t have to go back to sender for as long as you can prove employment (on a bi weekly basis). Once you can no longer prove employment (with the same employer) Go back to sender

Now I could even be flexible on that but it’s a path to citizenship. What would be the purpose of being more hardline than that (So I might understand). Of course background checks are also apart of this

I have a problem with this part. I think you should have said, "You can get in line behind all of the people who did NOT break the law and come here illegally, and if we have enough slots after they get their turn, you can return to the country once the border is secured."

Yep. Fits the definition of an Amnesty, at least according to most modern dictionaries.

>>You can return to the country once the border has been secured<<

McCain’s idea of “the border has been secured” is: 2 Dem and 2 RINO border governors deem it to be “secure.”

I think it’s possible that Palin has not thought much about immigration, since it’s not much of a problem in the Great White North. She may not realize that backing McCain’s amnesty is likely to lose support for both her and McCain among us right wingers, an important part of her defenders.

The purpose? A lesson in history....AMNESTY begets AMNESTY.
