"Q: Do you then favor an amnesty for the 12 million undocumented immigrants?
"A: No, I do not. Not total amnesty. You know, people have got to follow the rules. We have got to make sure that there is equal opportunity and those who are here legally should be first in line for services being provided and those opportunities that this great country provides.
So you support a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants?
"A: I do because I understand why people would want to be in America. To seek the safety and prosperity, the opportunities, the health that is here. It is so important that yes, people follow the rules so that people can be treated equally and fairly in this country."
Sorry, but this 'path to citizenship' is a non-starter with me. We should never, ever, reward criminality. These people are citizens. Citizens of Mexico, Guatamala, wherever they came from. Let them return and fix the mess that is their own; not make a further mess of America. If they want citizenship, then let them return legally after they've returned to their own country, going through the proper channels and showing good stewardship to American values, ideals and our laws.
Oh, and they already have access to 'the health that is here'. And are costing us an arm and a leg.
I’ve had a Lord of the Rings month.
Bi-Partisionship needs to mean “ Get on our team or move out of the way. The third option is we roll right over. We’re done letting your wormtoungues distort things with your illogical, ill meaning lies”
And “We will have peace when you hang from a gibbet as sport for your own crows” might be appropriate as well.
I think the folks on the Democratic side need to understand that we haven;t yet REALLY fought. Its been niceties to allow folks to choose sides. Those who chose incorrectly were so bold that they revealed themselves for what they are.
They blew their ability to steal things early and dropped their masks too soon.
Its about to get good.
