Romney was caught TWICE with illegals working his grounds. It is possible I’m certain for a man as well connected and rich as he is to find a company they know follows the rule of law if he had really cared about the issue. In the end all he cares about is what he admitted. How it reflects on his presidential campaign. The man doesn’t care about border security or illegal workers. He cares about saying or doing whatever he has to do to win a political contest even if it involves lying.
He knew he was rehiring a company that regularly hired illegal alien lawn boys and cheap tarts.
That's actually much worse than Whitman ~ she did not hire that woman twice, just once (albeit for several years).
Romney knew his boosters in the audience would try to rattle Perry into skipping the "repeat offender" part of the story.
That seemed to me very much like the Algore's funny animal noises during the first Bush (43) debate!
Huntsman was absolutely correct to NOT attend this particular debate. The misbehavior of the audience coordinated with the attempt by Romney to prevent the utterance of the FULL STORY by another candidate definitely put the lie to "Oh, gee whiz guys, those people are always clean, and neat and so polite".
Sometimes I guess they're not.
We might also ask how it was that Huntsman knew that would happen. Was he in on it? Does he have a spy in the Perry camp?
A “company that cares”, how? By discriminating against international workers? By illegally demanding greater proof from new employees?
What’s he going to do, call up all the landscapers he can find and ask if they hire illegals?
Now, I think Romney is thoroughly inadequate re: illegal immigration, and only marginally better than Perry on the issue. I’d rather have Cain, Santorum, Gingrich or Bachmann be my nominee, but there’s no way to hang him on this particular angle.
Come on - are you gonna tell Perry if he ever ate at a Mexican restaurant that employed an illegal - that he is guilty of hiring illegals to cook his food?
This is bull - Perry looked like a sixth-grader last night. Petty argument, petty logic, petty Perry.
And now we are down to two...
