If that plan is “conservative”, Obama actually was qualified to get into Harvard, too.
Illegals are government growth hormone and anyone who supports amnesty and calls themselves a conservative is a liar.
30 million illegals is enough to create some 50 new congressional districts (primarily democrat) and all the costs, pork, earmarks, entitlements, and liberal votes associated with them.
This is nothing more than a plan to politically exterminate conservatism in America.
What’s going to happen with all these illegals becoming legal? Right now, most are working - but they are working under the table for less than minimum wage. Once they become legal, their employers will have to increase their pay. How attractive will they be to employ? How many will suddenly become unemployed? I can’t wait for all this to happen...
11 million people with 2nd grade educations are going to fuel corporate innovation? Yeah right...
“His enemies might deny it. His staff might not recognize it. But the argument Obama presented Tuesday for a path to citizenship for 11 million illegal immigrants is rooted in economic and social conservatism.”
Rooted in economic and social conservatism? Hmmm. Nah, not feeling it Ron. Therefore, I’m still an enemy and still denying it. In his entire political career, BHO has never done anything remotely economically and social conservatve.
What a crock!
Yeah, right. Like importing millions of people who are barely literate is going to breed technical innovation. If that were the case, mexico would be a technological and innovative powerhouse. Enforcing existing law and setting a high standard for immigration guarantees quality new Americans, not throwing open the floodgates for millions of potential welfare recipients.
Ron Fournier is a Communist. His articles are assuredly leftist going back many years.
I don’t trust this article one bit.
Red Herring Alert!
Conservative is to secure the border and enforce the law.
Let the chips fall.
So enabling illegal activity is now “conservative?”
Conservative my Arse. I’ll reluctantly agree to permanent resident status for the illegals already here, but NO PATH TO CITIZENSHIP!

Somebody from National Journal is telling us what’s “conservative.” That’s rich.
Any article about illegal immigration containing the term “11 million” is garbage.
How stupid can you get?
Obama SAYS that these guys will join the workforce and be productive.
But even Obama isn’t dumb enough to believe that. Some will do odd jobs. Some will join the welfare force. Some will join the drug gangs. Almost all will vote Democrat.
Yeah, good plan. Abort as many American babies as you can, at taxpayer expense, and as the workforce ages, bring in young Mexican illegals to replace them. Where is that leading us?
When that huge number of new socialists/democrats is added to the system the Constitution will quickly fade even as a phony justification for unconstitutional acts.Hugo Obamez will be with us a long time.
It would be conservative it implied the death penalty for those violating the rules and abusing the refugee status meant for true dissidents, getting dissidents truly harassed as they come here by the very human traffikers still following them legalized in the same neighborhood.
OBama is a criminal and a relentless homosexual pursuer of his victims. He is empowered, Lanza style, because he knows his date of death and suicide attack.
But the whole exercise of punishing with death penalty the treason of the treaty is pointless since the illegals already are getting away today with murder, litteraly.
Mexico playing the NAzi Hitler suedeten land politics each time one of theirs faces the death penalty in texas are acts of war that we ignore.
Keep messing around, eggs get broken both sides all the time when making “amnesty” omelettes, and winds can change.
Liberals keep messing around, but a Hitler who will not see the difference between a people needing to adopt a reasonable language and the race which adopted it might very well rise.
We know all too well our good willing thugs in government, how they go CYA and red in the face angry when their treachery or stupidity is exposed. I know a fascist and a pre-fascist when I see a nice and feminine one.
In 1986, the suggested amount was a "mere 1.3 Million" that wound up between 3 and 4 Million, not nearly the 1.3 as claimed.
As to the "reform" being "conservative" I must need either a nap or a drink as I'm unable to make any sense at all in the article.
I'd say "too much consumin' goin' on in DC (liquor or drugs)," to quote former Sen. Ernest Hollings, responsible for these types of statements.
At least all the illegals will have a shot at government jobs, affirmative action has all but made white males a rarity in the government, I guess will have English as option two now!
