Now the WSJ is trying to claim that Ronald Reagan was a pro-open borders, pro-illegal immigration, one-worlder?!!

Ronald Reagan had respect for the rule of law. He had that 1986 amnesty forced down his throat by a Liberal Democrat congress.

Bush doesn't have that excuse!

Go, Tancredo, Go!

He could have vetoed it.

The irony of it all.

Fox played Reagan's speech last night. He granted 4 million illegals Amnesty, PROMISED to prosecute employers to the maximum extent of the law, promised to close the borders to further illegals, and stated he was PROUD to welcome 4 million new citizens the the melting pot that is America.

Funny, I didn't see anyone pressuring him. I was against what he did at the time.

You guys love to look at the past with rose-colored glasses!

Deport all illegals, secure our borders, and then we institute a very limited guest worker plan with NO strings towards citizenship.

No he didn't. He signed the amnesty willingly.

This wonderful site is no longer reflective of Reagan's vision, of hopefulness and opportunity.

Instead, it is turning to the narrow, cramped, inward-looking pessimism of Buchanan.

I never thought I'd see it.
