Jonathan Pollard was not convicted of treason. He spied for Israel and he has served enough time the life sentence was not the recommendation of the prosecutors. Pollard spied at a time when James Baker was our secretary of state under Ronald Reagan. It just amazes me the mob mentality here on FR.
I like the fact that Gingrich answers to tough questions as this and illegal immigration. I am not going to ignore the fact the government failed our responsibility to both cases

Sir, you get it with respect to Pollard. However, I do not concur with Newt on the softening of our stance on illegal immigration. The difference? We have actually enforced the law in Pollard’s case (thus far, without mercy), while Newt is calling for mercy for the illegals, when... the law was never brought to bear in the first place.

Respectfully agreeing to disagree: The two situations are apple and oranges. Nonetheless, thank you for speaking up with moral insight regarding Pollard.

I see the (assume illegal) immigrants and their families that come to church. They are mixed with children that are citizens here and not citizens. If the the government didn't do their job for 10, 15, 25 years I think there is a time limit just like if I don't protect my property rights I could loose them. We failed to enforce the law then it is of non effect. The children are innocent and will be ill-equipped to cope in their parents home land. I don't like amnysty, didn't like it in 86 but then I can not help that so much of the rest of the world is hell hole.
