Why do people keep saying he said they’d be US Citizens? Clearly he hasn’t said they’d be citizens. Just that they’d become legal residents.

I’m not defending his position, but at least call it what it is and describe the problem accurately.

McCain, Kennedy, and Obama support the position of pay a fine, learn English, and get to the back of the line on an earned path to citizenship.

Newt supports the position of pay a fine, learn English, and get your status legalized. The main difference between the two is citizenship. Newt does this to sell amnesty. He creates a second class of LPR status that will never be upheld by the courts. LPRs have all the duties and privileges of citizenship except the right to vote. They can work, receive entitlement and welfare benefits, have a driver's license, be drafted, sponsor their relatives to come here legally, etc.

Any legislation that allows illegal alliens to stay and work here is amnesty. Citizenship is not the issue. Newt uses it to fool and deceive. Newt supports amnesty.

I will tell you what it is... it is progressive INCREMENTALISM PERIOD. Once they are legal residents... they will file suit against the government for discrimination and the march to citizenship is assured. These people cannot speak English... the majority cannot... they will not assimilate because they have not to date... many support reconquesta and la raza... they are enemy invaders.
