So enforcing existing laws which have been on the books for decades is somehow a police state? BULLSHIT!

I was hoping that was it. the democrats are going to try to say he was thrown out of Marquette, and imply all sorts of terrifying little secrets. Is there a skeleton in that closet?

it would be cool if we could get that figured out before the Clinton campaign starts running devastating ads, or if bought-off-fat-a$$ Cramdy Crowlady pulls the in on another grenade in the middle of a debate.

I guess you’re going to drag this around from thread to thread until someone points out that Senators do not have executive authority in the State they hail from?

What kind of beads DO you mis-count?

He was not thrown out.

He left early because he had to take care of his mom if I remember correctly. She was ill. He then later on ran for WI state assembly and won, and was one for awhile, then later ran for Milwaukee County Exec and won, several times, and then ran for Governor and won.

I believe he is working to finish his degree.

Yeah, I mean what happened to her made me angry to a point that I may have been and still am irrational over it.

That is the question that I keep coming back too.

If that had been my mom, I may not have been able to govern the state. I would have had to go and save my mom.

The thing is, if that is how a civilization and its civilized people treat someone who cannot fend for themselves and is dependent on our mercy for life, then I really don’t want anything to do with that civilization.

That was a truly hideous thing that was done to her.

Here’s a story on Cruz’s bill to legalize millions: http://therightscoop.com/sen-ted-cruz-also-supports-temporary-legalization-status-in-the-immigration-bill/

Legalize, not give them citizenship, in fact, he has stated emphatically, that they should never get citizenship.

Furthermore, following are Ted Cruz's stated positions on Illegal Immigration and Border related issues, does Walker have anything that approaches this?:

From NumbersUSA:


1. Oppose Amnesty - OPPOSE offering the officially estimated 11 million people illegally in the U.S. long-term work permits and/or a path to citizenship (whether through a blanket amnesty or an "earned legalization" or other form)

2. Attrition through Enforcement - fund an Attrition Through Enforcement campaign to cause illegal aliens to self-repatriate back to their home countries over time

3. Mandate E-Verify - jobs held by illegal aliens be opened up for unemployed Americans and legal immigrants already here by requiring all businesses to use the Federal automated, rapid-response internet system (E-Verify) to screen out illegal foreign workers

4. Assist Local Police - federal government be required to cooperate with local officials and pick up all illegal aliens detained by local law enforcement

5. Defund Sanctuary Cities - reduce funding to state and local governments that adopt sanctuary policies and other rewards for illegal foreign workers and the companies that hire them

6. Fund Entry/Exit System - fully fund the completion of the entry/exit system at all borders and points of entry in which every person entering and leaving the U.S. is logged into a database which would notify law enforcement, businesses and others when a foreign tourist, student, worker or other fails to leave on-time? *(US-VISIT was approved by Congress in 1996 and has never been sufficiently funded and is largely incomplete.)

7. Border Security - fund and provide oversight for the full implementation of border security measures already signed into law

8. End Birthright Citizenship - move the U.S. in line with most other nations and stop the policy of giving automatic citizenship at birth to children when both parents are illegal aliens?

9. End Chain Migration - implement the bi-partisan, national Jordan Commission recommendation to limit family-based immigration to the nuclear family of spouse and minor children, thus eliminating the "chain migration" categories of extended family that are the key reason immigration has quadrupled since the 1960s

10. End Visa Lotteries - institute safeguards that will prevent importation of foreign workers any time they would threaten the jobs or depress the wages of American workers

11. Reduce Total Immigration - Until 1976, U.S. immigration tradition was an average of around 250,000 a year; since new legislation in 1990, it has averaged 1,000,000 a year. More than 38 million foreign workers and dependents now live in the U.S. At current rates, immigration will add more than 100 million additional people to the U.S. population by 2060. This government-forced rapid population expansion will require huge increases in energy, roads and other infrastructure and services.

almost as many as there are different definitions here of "amnesty", although they all purport to be the only real definition, and all seem to be punishable for any perceived violation by political death.

So you are saying you are supporting this "temporary legalization which as the article says could become "permanent legalized residency" for millions.

That was a tactical move by Sen Cruz during the debate over the 2013 Senate bill. His sole proposed amendment was to remove the pathway to citizenship. He stressed that the proponents would get everything else that they asked for. Cruz thereby managed to reveal the Democrat's true objective, which was, and remains, to add to the Democrat voting base, not to bring anyone "out of the shadows".

That is the context.

Illegals themselves will tell you they want to stay in the shadows. Incredibly hard to get over on the US gravy train if you give up your data.

‘Well, I’m illegal, and my boyfriend who works under the table is, too, but the 40K in benefits per year would be slashed to 6K per year if you knew who I really am.’

It’s kind of suspicious when a so called conservative like Beck makes a claim like that.

They are not liars. Walker was fo a path to citizenship. We call that amnesty. Now he says he is against amnesty. But is he against a path to citizenship? These are different as the Gang of 8 tells us. And they may be different in his mind. So when he clearly states what he will do about illegal aliens the problem I will have is determining if I can believe him. Trust. That is the real problem. I’m running pretty low on it.
