Anyone, and Scott walker tops it, who thinks they can get away with pro amnesty is not paying any attention to what the corruption is doing to the country and what effect it is having on morale

When April 16 comes around and people tune I to what obamacare is about, the blame will spread where it belongs - onto the house who enabled BO to make it happen

Anyone underestimating Cruz and his goal to stop all of this is too stupid to be a phone volunteer for Cruz for pres let alone a candidate

The GOP thinks they are fooling the voters and will try to nominate this or some other amnesty guy. But they are not getting the picture

Well I’ll be. Heard him on the Michael Berry talk show the other day and he was against any sort of amnesty. Rather he told Mr. Berry that he supported a worker program instead.

Politicians...damn, ya just can’t trust’em.

all McCain had to do to win was to run with it. He never mentioned it.

No, Juan's primary campaign was dead due to his extreme pro-amnesty position. Then he changed and began the "secure the border first" ruse, and that enabled him to revive his campaign.

He seldom mentioned it in the general election, but he had to lie about his intent to secure the border to have a chance in the primaries. He used the same lie again in his 2010 reelection campaign against J. D. Hayworth.

If only a candidate would come out and say "WE'RE GOING TO PUT A STOP TO THE INVASION OF ILLEGALS POURING INTO THE UNITED STATES AND TURN OFF ALL OF THEIR BENEFITS SUCH AS OBAMACARE, FOOD STAMPS AND PAID TUITION AT OUR COLLEGES...".

He or she would WIN the election!

[Yes, Walker just shot himself in the head !
This is NOT a “smart” move on his part and he is NOT ready for “prime time”.]

Am I surprised on immigration Walker is just another two faced politico, No. What happened to Walker's cajones? All shriveled up on the cold plains of Iowa? Sometimes if you google the article you can get by the paywall. NRO has a post on this:

******

I am vehemently against illegal immigration amnesty.

So, if the story about Scott Walker is even partially true, then he has lost my vote if he runs for president.

To me, if the story is true, Walker has turned into another two-faced, backstabbing, lying Republican politician.

From Breitbart.

“According to this new Wall Street Journal report, it’s quite possible a supporter of Jeb Bush, or another candidate went to the media regarding Walker’s recent comments at a private GOP dinner...With three sources now (anonymously) on record”

WSJ-Bushes and anonymous sources.

Gee. Straw man much?
“Path to Citizenship.” That is the deal breaker.

You argue just like a RINO.

No one said anything about immediate deportation.

No citizenship or incentives of any kind for those who broke the law to get here.

Care to address that?

WSJ-Bushes and anonymous sources.

Simple and easy enough for the Walker campaign to issue a clearly worded clarification of his position. Has there been one?

I have an anonymous source that says they saw Hillary eating dead aborted babies.

See how that works?

I call BS

What does Ted Cruz say should be done with the millions of illegals who have been in the U.S. for years, have children, are working, etc.?

I have to admit that I don’t know what is the answer to this question. I think it became such a problem because it was not dealt with years ago, when it first started happening.

Honestly, what is to be done with them? I’m curious.

WSJ article date: “Updated March 26, 2015 3:45 p.m. ET”

Walker would need a time machine to the future.

First, remove incentives. No eligibility for any sort of taxpayer funded benefit. None.

I don't have a problem with special limited time visas for those who are gainfully employed, provided those jobs are subject to the same government mandated requirements as any other. The employer should receive no special advantage from the employment of illegals.

But absolutely no path to citizenship and no anchor babies. To get citizenship they'll need to go home and get in line.
