This is even worse, essentially an open borders policy:
“If youre somebody, whether youre from Mexico or Germany or Ireland, and you want to come to this country
legally, we should find a way to make it happen, Walker said.”
But here’s the start of article from The Hill that quotes Walker as, despite his claims (and all pols claim to be against ‘amnesty’), massively pro-amnesty:
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) says he supports a pathway to citizenship for immigrants living in the country illegally as part of an overhaul of the nation’s immigration system.
“If people want to come here and work hard and benefit, I don’t care whether they come from Mexico or Ireland or Germany or Canada or South Africa or anywhere else,” Walker said Tuesday during an interview with the Daily Herald Media Editorial Board of Wisconsin. “I want them here.”
Walker was then asked about the estimated 11 million immigrants living in the country illegally. The editorial board asked if he could “envision a world where with the right penalties and waiting periods and meet the requirements where those people could get citizenship?”
“Sure,” Walker responded. “I mean I think it makes sense.”
Sure, Walker responded. I mean I think it makes sense.
"Penalties and waiting periods," and other "requirements" hardly add up to amnesty. Given these provisos, indeed it would have been unrealistic and stupid to have answered any other way.
You do know who Daniel Hill is don’t you? Who wrote this article you are linking to? He’s one of the Journolistas. His specialty is hit pieces on Conservatives.

It’s really great when a Freeper quotes from sources so far left they agree with Bill Ayers regarding an accomplished conservative Governor like Walker.
Thanks. This is not good. Guess Cruz will be next. The only two I admired and was counting on.
We’re screwed.
