Palin expands her position on Illegal Immigration
Palin: we need to close the borders. They are called illegal aliens for a reason and if they are not going to follow the rules they should not be in our country.
It’s pretty simple I ratched that one down to the simple answer because its an easier answer than some politicians want it to make it be.
you close the borders. You get more agressive about cracking down on the illegal aliens and we take it serious what our border patrol officers are trying to do

LARS: The amnesty proposal that was defeated in Congress — in your view, was that amnesty for illegals and would you back amnesty for a path to citizenship, as the current president calls it?
SARAH PALIN: No, I’m not for amnesty. Let’s ratchet this down quite simply to remember what we’re referring to. Illegal aliens are called “illegal” for a reason.
We need to secure our borders and I am not for amnesty. And there are humane ways to deal with the 11-13 million illegal aliens who are in our country right now, but if they’re not going to follow the rules, they need to get out.
I’m good with that. Still, after eight or ten ticks in the “Good” column, this is a tick in the “Bad” in my book.
What was her position on illegals while gov of Alaska?
And do hordes of illegal Mexicans pour over the border into Alaska every day? Are they a big problem in Fairbanks and Juneau?
“Wow she really blew it. She has totally lost my support. It McCain more important than conservative values. I guess so. Typical politician.”
Translation: “Lots of scheming Romulan and Ronulan trolls like me who are infesting Free Republic are also infesting Facebook.”

McCain is the guy who threw his own campaign, undermined Palin at every term and told us we had "nothing to fear" if Obama became president.
You should "get over" your own self.
Ooh! I love puppet shows! Can you do that thing where he talks while you drink a glass of water?
I give her a pass on this one. How can she support anyone other than McCain when the two of them were on the ticket together. The obvious criticism would be . . She thinks McCain is qualified to be President, but not qualified to be Senator.
She supports McCain. Big deal. I support the conservative in the race . . and that is NOT McCain.
McCain is a back stabbing RINO. I have great respect for Mrs Palin, but her support for McCain after he threw her under the bus makes no sense.
This time around we have him in our pocket. IMO it he will win and be of tremendous value in the battle ahead.
Are you the type who listens to crappy music because "everyone is doing it?"
If someone told you to choose between a bludgeoning to the head or a dagger to the crotch, which one would you choose?
I love Sarah and support her above all for President, BUT now I have a small doubt about her judgement. I don't like that feeling.

Are you kidding or serious? You lost your country due to McCain-Feingold and you do not even realize it. You have no clue the damage that McCain has caused.
You are about 20 moves behind the cut throat Dems. McCain is a trajan horse for Obama.
Thank you, lt.america, for your noble efforts to expose the catastrophic problems caused by illegal aliens flooding the Yukon. The Salvadorean MS13 attacks on the Aleutians must stop!
...and if I lived in Arizona, I would vote for JD.
Now, you try it.
Endorsements are kinda like the waitress telling you the special of the day...you are still free to decide for yourself.
Hahahhaha....

McCain ia nothing but a political HACK and LIAR! He LOVES amnesty for illegals and for SARAH to not realize this, for her to campaign for this TOTALLY WORTHLESS, back stabbing RINO just goes to show what a TOTAL LACK OF JUDGMENT AND DISCERNMENT SHE HAS and yes I am yelling! They are both disgraceful. How dare they look the American people in the eye tonight on GRETA and say that McCain is for securing the borders! It is the height of hypocracy and LIES. McCain has had well over a DECADE to get it right and to deal with this issue and he has steadfastly REFUSED and worked AGAINST securing our borders because history has shown time and time again that McCain loves and cares more abot illegal aliens than he does Americans!
But I respect Palin for her political history of winning the bigger fight. Let the primaries run their course, I'm behind whoever wins.
Thank you for your well thought out articulated answer. I’m sure you expend the same amount of reason when you blindly vote the party line.
I’m one of those freaks who carefully examine each candidate before I choose.
Call me irresponsible...
