Envision the Comprehensive Immigration Act of 2009.
Build the wall that Duncan Hunter got started and then when an illegal is caught and most of them sooner or later will get caught, DEPORT THEM HOME TO WHERE THEY BELONG !!!
A lot of people hold Hugh in low-esteem and I’ve never understood why. I sometimes question his conclusions but he’s sharp and savvy.
I, for one, do not admire Hewitt. For years while others were screaming about illegal invasion in California he was very very soft. He is a Johnny-Come-Lately to immigration and he can be very manipulative.
A person who snuck into this country on December 31, 2006 (or December 31, 1996 for that matter) should be treated no better than one who applied legally on January 1, 2007. Can anyone offer me any reason why that should not be the case?
Couple it with the argument that Hillary is coming and this is the best we will get if we lose the White House.
Sorry Hugh, that dog don’t hunt no more.
>> Prosecute and fine the employers who knowingly participated. Make examples of about 100 right off.
Absolutely! Except, I’d like to see certain employers face FELONY charges.
This is the elephant in the living room, that no one dares talk about.
There are TWO sets of outlaws in this game: the illegal border-crossers, and the corrupt businessmen that hire them.
Of the two, I think that the outlaw businessmen may actually be the worst, because without under-the-table jobs, the illegals wouldn’t have any motivation to come here!
The outlaw businesspeople are tax-evaders, also.
They are sick, sick, sick.
WRITE! WRITE! WRITE! WRITE! TILL YOU RUN OUT OF INK IN YOUR PEN!
Bombard the Democrats as well, especially the ones that ran on an anti illegal immigration plank and the ones in marginal districts who could be vulnerable. keep pounding on them. This is a bipartisan issue not a Conservative or Liberal issue BUT AN AMERICAN issue.
Agreed.
Off topic-
Bunyap,Iron Knight, or Black Sheep?
>> Am I being too soft?
No, a grace period (while the enforcement effort spins up) is a good idea.
Then bring the hammer down. HARD.
One other thing would be necessary: a law that ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY forbids any sort of tort action against an employer for verifying that employees are legal. Otherwise, the LULAC etc. activists would put honest employers who want to follow the law in a no-win situation.
1). Pass Jorge's and his amigo's plan.
2). Kindly accept the $5,000.00 each illegal ponies up.
3). Take $250 of that payment and put their ass on a plane back to whichever hellhole they came from.
4). Use $4,700.00 left over to round up some of those that didn't make themselves known and send them on a similar one way trip.
5). Give me the $50 for a pint or dozen so I can cry over my beer remembering this nation's former glory - I WANT MY FRIGGIN COUNTRY BACK!!!!!!!!!!!
6). Repeat until job done or my liver taps out.
It's not commonly known, but before Mr. Hewett went to talk radio, for a number of years he did a local PBS-TV political talk show in the Los Angeles area and, to my way of thinking, he was a (occasionally/mostly center-left) neo-cons neo-con even before that term came into vogue.
While I believe that conversions on the road to Damascus can happen, I still have a hard time believing that Mr. Hewett's conservative conversion is entirely sincere, and I've never been able to get past some of the soft-leftist positions that he seemed advocate back in the 1980s.
Then again, that's just me. Your opinion of Mr. Hewett may vary -- and probably will.
Very good! By the way according to Duncan Hunter the Bush Admin has actually built 2 MILES of that fence your showing in the last couple years !!!
