Gingrich: Most illegal immigrants should leave, reapply to become citizens

MSNBC ^ | 11-25-2011 | Alex Moe

[Steelfish]

Newt has more baggage than what the cargo hold of the QE2 can accommodate. If Gingrich is the Republican nominee this is the surest ticket to an Obama landslide.

[9YearLurker]

I’ve got it now: those here can become ‘legalized’, then they take a trip home to see old friends and put their names in line to become citizens. Back in the US to pick up where they left off, they merely wait for their new citizenship to take effect.

[hinckley buzzard]

You too. You can sing tenor.

[PAConservative1]

I agree. Cain is definitely the best candidate against Obama. He takes away 1/3 of the black vote, the race is over before it even starts. Hell, even 1/5 would probably be more than enough to crush Barry.

Yet, conservatives are leaving him en masse...and why? For a bunch of media manufactured sexual harassment “slander”? Really disappointed in my fellow conservatives, especially when they’re flocking to NEWT of all people. Hello? Scozzafava? Pelosi couch?

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

Over on the “we love newt” post they are putting a brave face on it.If the polls dont show him dropping like a stone then the polls are cooked.I hope it blows up on them.

[Windflier]

That sounds like a flip flop to me.

Which came first? The flip, or the flop? I'm losing track.

[org.whodat]

Two late newt we have your back flipping number, man talk about a liar.

[topfile]

That sounds like a flip flop to me.

Not at all. Perfectly inline with the debate stance. No path to citizenship for illegals here now, just legal residence without the vote. As soon as Newt stated his position at the debate, Bachmann immediately branded it as Amnesty for everyone. Replay the debate to see. Also most people didn't hear that Newt's plan starts with sealing our border.

[ThermoNuclearWarrior]

He's doing damage control trying to lessen the amount he falls in next weeks polls after letting us know he's weak on illegal immigration, and insulted the Conservative majority who doesn't take a weak stance on the issue by calling them inhumane. It looks like it's time for Herman Cain to rise once again.

This isn't the only issue Gingrich has going against him either. He was supporting an extremely liberal RINO in Dede Scozzafava in 2009 when Conservatives like Sarah Palin, and Fred Thompson were supporting the Conservative party candidate Doug Hoffman. Gingrich was supporting the unelectable third place liberal along with those queer liberals who like to call themselves Republicans for some reason, “the log cabin republicans”. That's good company.

Anyway, the democrat candidate won a close race against the Conservative candidate after Newts liberal candidate dropped out, and then endorsed the democrat candidate. It didn't surprise anyone who knew how liberal she was, but she apparently fooled the brilliant Gingrich who somehow saw something beneficial in having an extreme liberal, even compared to other RINO’s, in Congress to begin with.

Too late Newt.

Not a change. You must have missed the debate. Lots of misinformation out there.

[Apollo5600]

You’re not getting it. Even if he isn’t giving them citizenship, it’s still amnesty. He’s just playing with words here, treating us like we’re stupid.

[Lazlo in PA]

I’m there.

[fallujah-nuker]

Too late Newt. Your train has left the station, and you ripped up your ticket.

Neutered supports affirmative action, he campaigned against it when he wanted to be Speaker of the House in 1994, but once the job was his he flip flopped like Mitt Romney. Run a search of "Newt Gingrich—GOP’s Anti-White Quota King" and see what you find, top hit on Google. Neutered wants to discriminate against my children based upon the color of his skin, and the RINO's on the this forum have a conniption fit if you don't put Neutered sellouts down the memory hole. Someone who wants to discriminate against my children based upon the color of their skin is no conservative. If I want my children to face discrimination based upon skin color I will have two choices for the same policy next November if it's Neutered vs the Obamanation.

[GeronL]

They will never seal the border.

So did Reagan’s plan, seal the border. Never happened. One of the biggest regrets he ever had.

[ThermoNuclearWarrior]

It looks like the liberal media want Gingrich as well by the treatment they are giving him, compared to the way the other front runners, such as Cain, were treated. I think that's a good reason to drop Newt which I think most have already done after he called his supporters “inhumane”, just like another pro-illegal immigrant candidate in Perry. I see most of that support going to Herman Cain, but we'll see.

[CSI007]

Newt has now flip flopped on the issue.

He knows his goose was cooked when he opened his mouth and actually said something liberal and pissed off the base just like Perry.

Newt is not as bright as his supporters say he is.

[topfile]

forgiving their crimes

I guess a $5000 fine is insufficient for you. That's what Newt proposed.

[ThermoNuclearWarrior]

It was just a matter of time before he said something liberal that he really believed, and destroyed his campaign. He has a history of doing just that.
