Meanwhile, during a recent interview on Spanish-language television, Gov. Sarah Palin declared her support for comprehensive immigration reform. She said that, while she doesn’t favor a “total amnesty” (without conditions), she does support giving illegal immigrants a path to earned legalization.
Sarah’s stock just went down several notches in my eyes.
She is now officially tarnished.
Doesn’t sound good to me either...unless afterwards she added that “path” led either to a recruiters’ office or the back of the line, their choice. Maybe we need to look at ways to improve immigration policy or facilitate guest worker programs...but we do what’s constitutional and in America’s interests...because the guilt trip well is bone dry.
Immigrants are what we’re all about, but cheating to get ahead is a crime, period. Sometimes I think it’s an honor deficit that is the real root of our country’s woes.
Men of the caliber of Thomas Jefferson and Andy Jackson would not now be wringing their hands over how to find a strong man in Washington to save them...they would drag liberals out of their offices by the ears. Especially Andy. I have no doubt Andy Jackson would throw a loop around Pelosi and drag her behind a horse to the hoosegow.
“President Jackson! How can you treat a woman that way?”
“That was a woman??! Tarnation if it didn’t look like a crazy coyote with a bad case of mange...” ;^)
I think this is already in place: b een there for YEARS.
Some follks what to short cut across the switchbacks.
