Newt stance of last night on immigration is very reasonable.

Sure it is, if you're a millionaire who lives in a gated community, and whose day to day life isn't negatively impacted by the presence of foreigners who are depressing the wages in formerly well-paying industries.

My family's income has dropped by 40% in the last seven years because of the explosion of illegal labor in our industry. We're now at the point where we either employ illegals like the rest of our unscrupulous competitors, or we get out of the business. We're going to go bankrupt if we continue to play by the rules.

Newt wants to ignore the LAW, which says that entering the country without a visa or a green card is ILLEGAL, no matter how long ago you committed that crime.

Easy for him to take that view, when he can afford a $500,000 tab at Tiffany's. Not so, with working class people like me. These people have destroyed my life.
