The real story is you forgot to mention he got a parking ticket 10 years ago.
How about reading it first?
Just like my thinking on the illegal immigrants has changed, I believe as one gets a good picture of this thing, they would want a sealed border and conditions that create voluntary deportation rather than a road to citizenship.
Tom Seaver. Borrow Chico's soap.
Never return.
To be sure, for many conservative pundits — such as The Washington Post’s Jennifer Rubin, The Wall Street Journal editorial page, The Washington Examiner’s Phillip Klein ————————————————————————————————
These are not conservative pundits. They are paid mouthpieces of The Cheap Labor Express.
Did I wake up in upside-down land? This is a bad thing?
Unless the Mexican judge gave him at least a 9.9 I’m not buying it.
Mass-immigration has been troublesome for the country in the modern era. It doesn’t really matter if the immigration has a legal blessing or not in terms of the overall effect of diluting the nation’s core population, flooding certain industries with lower-wage workers, and other negative effects.
I’d be fine with curtailing legal immigration levels along with general border security against the illegal form.
Reason’s writers confuse business interests (more workers, lower wages, etc.) with the national interest. While they coincide sometimes, they can also diverge, and this is one area where they have been diverging for a while.
, the vast bulk of smart-set conservative opinion was decisively in favor letting market need — not the arbitrary whim of a labor bureaucracy beholden to unions — set immigration levels
We are a nation, not a market.
Unless we let the market decide.
Then we lose our country.
That’s what the bulk of the ‘smart-set” doesn’t get. If we do not control our borders we do not control our destiny.
Saying one is for a “path to citizenship” for illegals is saying nothing. It only begs the question regarding whether the path includes sections of hot coals or broken glass.
Heck, even I’m for a path for them, but it will be a MUCH tougher row to hoe than the one offered to those that start legally.
The idea voiced by President Bush that “they are only doing the jobs that Americans will not do” was one of the most infuriating and ill informed thing I had ever heard a leader say. Whether it is a high or low skilled job, given the opportunity and adequate compensation Americans will do it.
I see nothing wrong with Governor Walker’s suggestion that the needs of American workers be considered in determining immigration policy. After all, he is seeking election as President of the United States, not head of the chamber of commerce or chief social worker for the world.
No illegal should become a citizen, even if you do support it.
Reason Magazine is the flagship libertarian magazine.
Here is the libertarian position on immigration.
COMPLETE PLATFORM TEXT
INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS AND CIVIL ORDER
IMMIGRATION:
“”THE ISSUE: We welcome all refugees to our country and condemn the efforts of U.S. officials to create a new “Berlin Wall” which would keep them captive. We condemn the U.S. government’s policy of barring those refugees from our country and preventing Americans from assisting their passage to help them escape tyranny or improve their economic prospects.
THE PRINCIPLE: We hold that human rights should not be denied or abridged on the basis of nationality. Undocumented non-citizens should not be denied the fundamental freedom to labor and to move about unmolested. Furthermore, immigration must not be restricted for reasons of race, religion, political creed, age or sexual preference. We oppose government welfare and resettlement payments to non-citizens just as we oppose government welfare payments to all other persons.
SOLUTIONS: We condemn massive roundups of Hispanic Americans and others by the federal government in its hunt for individuals not possessing required government documents. We strongly oppose all measures that punish employers who hire undocumented workers. Such measures repress free enterprise, harass workers, and systematically discourage employers from hiring Hispanics.
TRANSITIONAL ACTION: We call for the elimination of all restrictions on immigration, the abolition of the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the Border Patrol, and a declaration of full amnesty for all people who have entered the country illegally.””
First off, I give the definition for the word squatter:
[skwot-er]
noun
1.a person or thing that squats.
2.a person who settles on land or occupies property without title, right, or payment of rent.
3.a person who settles on land under government regulation, in order to acquire title.
Word Origin and History for squatter:
“settler who occupies land without legal title,” 1788, agent noun from squat (v.); in reference to paupers or homeless people in uninhabited buildings, it is recorded from 1880.
The Left are no dummies. They know that the Conservative base is rabid about the illegal squatters without legal right to occupy this nation’s sovereign territory. Some of us (not enough, as I can see) are aware that these squatters are getting set to receive their DemonRAT issued voter registration cards for the 2016 elections. I know for certain these squatters will vote and they will affect the elections for the DemonRATs. We have lost the battle here because we have not focused our energies on maintaining the integrity of the elections. It is here we have done squat about the squatters. However, it is urgent we elect a President this election cycle who will. The more time we give them, the deeper hole we will get. That is because the DemonRATs are putting their game plan on the fast track. They will give as as many of these illegal squatters, as fast as they can, the vote; which will be quasi-citizenship. That would be like giving a squatter a piece of your property without the legal title to do so.
Because of this urgency to elect a President who will correct the illegal squatter issue, it is urgent we be prepared to unite behind the candidate who does get nominated.
I warn everyone who reads this. Because the Left are not dummies, they will infiltrate the Conservative sites and sow discord, Their objective is to keep us divided so we will not do the thing we are best at: the grassroots mobilization of the campaign. What we do, the DemonRATs have to pay millions to get people in the streets knocking on doors and waving signs. We will have to be disciplined to not be disheartened by the tactics of the Left. A big tactic will be stirring up fights between us and causing people to stay home. It will be psychological and we can be taken off our game if we have no self-control.
My point is that my solution for them would be a catch 22 - If I were running for office...
It thought you said that you would give them citizenship, where is the catch 22 and the solution, in that?
I love it when liberals write articles telling conservatives how bad their candidates are!
The attempt at painting Walker a flip-flopper morphs into support for open markets (open borders)....which no liberal really supports.
This is a laughable article.
