So you would argue for sending the GOP down the road of retroactively stripping away citizenship from those born to illegals on U.S. soil, be it 5 weeks, 5 years or 50 years ago?

Insanity. Political suicide for the GOP.

Actually, I wouldn’t shed a tear if the GOP committed political suicide.

However, legislation like this is not retroactive. You simply STOP the anchor baby exception. That doesn’t mean that those recognized as citizens in the past are no longer citizens. Ex post facto punishment for what was legal prior is not the American way. Art I, Sect 9, para 3: “No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed. “

The Gang Of Pu$$ies committed suicide long ago. But you are well aware of that already even as you continue to defend every position of the Stupid party as it circles the drain.

As far as insanity, you are continually demonstrating it over the Illegal Alien Invasion with your Mr. Fantastic sssstretchingggg of every possible solution into cuckooland. You have dusted off an old logical fallacy called argumentum ad absurdum.

Why is it absurd? You live in a country that has by action of a select few traitors, allowed a full scale invasion so vast, that the error bars alone describing the quantity present is equal to the population of Australia. If the suspected 35 million are here then we actually contain the equivalent to the population of Canada, and this invasion force would rank as the world's 35th country in population. That is more than 1,700 military divisions, and is more than twice as large as all the people that served in the USA World War II armed forces. Now that is absurd. But what is even more absurd is the concerted effort to defeat every solution, absurd, and traitorous. What number of invaders could possibly wake you up? If India were next door would it be okay to take in 200, 300 million?

Fun fact: the USA population since 1980 has increased almost 100 million, the current out-of-work force is, wait for it, almost 100 million. How do you like them apples? We report, you decide.

Anyway, no absurd scenarios are required to fix this. Language in a Congressional Law that says: "No person that enters the USA Illegally may ever be granted citizenship". It can be made permanent via an Amendment later.

Self-deportation would immediately commence of those that want future USA citizenship. Those that remain would be the ones that never planned on it and can be permanently deported once they are located. The edge cases which have you so concerned can be handled over time, after the overall picture becomes clearer. You see, constructing a plan of action does NOT require a comprehensive plan up front. This is a dynamic situation that is fluid and will require different strategies at different points in time.

The can't do spirit that you and all (R)epublicrat shills conveniently espouse when solutions are presented is *not* part of the American tradition. It sounds almost, French. We Americans can do.

(R)epublicrats ...
