Sarah Palin made her position on illegal immigration known tonight in an radio interview with Rusty Humphries show. At the 11.00min mark in the interview Gov Palin states that we need to close the Southern border. She said that they are called illegal for a reason and if they can not follow the rules they do not need to be in this country.

Those on FR who keep up their circular arguments against Palin didn’t like her from the beginning.
Most don’t want a woman president so pick at and create non issues so they are not obvious being a misogynist
and your candidate Keyes really took care of Obama in the Ill Senate race in 2004.
70% vs 27%
But she’s not running a campaign now..she’s on a book tour and enjoying the ride.
I have no problem with how she is responding to questions. People are looking for campaign lingo where she is not under that umbrella just yet.
She’s doing fine and frankly I was glad to hear her mention the illegal alien issue. I don’t believe her remarks were intended for documented workers or amnesty issues for as you know there are levels to the immigration issue ..it’s not a matter of either/or.
Energy -> credentials/Alaska -> can contradict McCain.
Illegal immigrants -> no previous record -> can’t contradict.
Not sure what is you don’t understand here. Credentials means she has a proven track record, she had that with energy not with illegal immigration.
Credentials does not equal “ideas”, “positions”, “views” and does not mean her views/ideas are not sound.
You keep using words like lie and flip flop, because you imply she shared MCcain’s position on this.
I’m telling you that she supported the campaign to beat Obama, and she did this as a VP candidate in a campaign taht was already well under way when she joined.
From her direct comments, she supported a path to citizenship in the campaign, and possibly before. You said she shared McCain's position on the issue so as not to contradict him, due to lack of credentials. Your rationale is that she supported a position contrary to her "views" and stated it publicly for political reasons. If her current comments (ideas) contradict her previous comments, how will it not be viewed as a convenient change in positions (flip flop) in the primary or the general election?
If McCain chooses to run again, will she be able to contradict him without those credentials which you say he possesses. Or did she acquire them recently?
I LOVE her answer. I am ready to campaign for her. Getting rid of the illegals is the only hope for my state.
You’re worried about that when the Congress is getting ready to amnesty tens of millions of foreign nationals? Wake up.
If you’re a Palin supporter you better be working to get your candidate to forsake her previously-stated position in favor of amnesty. Because if she’s on the wrong side of this issue after Christmas she will self-immolate. Take it to the bank.
Subject, verb, definite article.
Out of morbid curiousity alone, mind: which part, specifically, is throwing you...?
Fine. Just don't expect serious people who are concerned with serious matters that will determine the fate of our free republic to take her seriously.
Good night.
Quit kidding yourself. Each amnesty makes a further mockery of our national sovereignty and the rule of law, and sets the stage for the next wave of illegal immigration.
Are you ready for a hundred million more?
I'll have to read your response tomorrow...
If you believe that going on record with anything as blunt and unequivocal as "close the border" makes one an amnesty supporter, you're obviously playing by Humpty Dumpty rules. ("When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful voice, "it means just what I choose it to mean.")
Fail. Good night.
You are creating a bogus argument.
AS a person who lives arond 20 miles north of the largest and busiest border crossing in the world I will back Palin’s views all the way.
Perhaps you and your Keyes supporters can go state by state
and round up the over 12 million illegals. Charter planes and fly them back to Mexico. this should take several yrs. and billions of dollars.
In the mean time they are still coming in and guess how.
Just 2am yesterday morning again the Coast Guard and a Blackhawk helicopter stopped a boat with 22 illegals
off the coast of San Diego.
San Diego has a 70 mile coast line and several times a week the illegals are using boats.
Another tunnell was just found at the border with elevator and all.
Eternal vig...I would never imagine anyone on this sight not being very serious about the issues our country faces, nor those citizens of our rebublic equally as much. We are all being affected and most certainly are serious...and you know this.
The urgencey you feel is apparent...as are those requirements you feel are necessary in a canidate. So let that stand and we’ll see how things play out in the weeks ahead.
You have your two note arguments and
make a fool of your self with bogus charges on a
person thinking if you say it enough times the
idiots on FR who can’t think for themselves will
believe you.

Well now you are just making it up .... “possibly before”. “Possibly” is making things AFAIC.
“political reasons” is generally correct - but lets be honest - she was a VP candidate on an presidential ticket on a campaign that started well before she joined, and like all conservatives wanted to beat obama (did you?). Can you think of a quicker way of losing then everybody in a campign expressing there own views?
“flip-flop”. I think most people, not you obviously, that palin does not equal McCain are interested in her real positions. I doubt anyone is judging her on following a script, except you.
Have you read her book? She admits she was a team player, keen to know what the script was to help the ticket?
That is what VPs do, or don’t you know?
Well, well, that information certainly brings things into focus. Seems like we have yet another operative from a potential rival candidate on our hands...
So, ARE you a political operative for Keyes?

It is Sarah or no vote from LLS... no one else even comes close.

How is Alan these days?
