It is realistically impossible, economically risky and ethically wrong to seek the deportation of all 11.2 million undocumented immigrants in this country.
No, it isn’t impossible, not economically risky and it damn sure isn’t unethical.
Since those assumptions are so very wrong, everything after that is bs.
Let's test your theory for purity. Spend a couple days compiling a list of every law you broke over the last 25 years, then turn yourself in to accept punishment/fines for all of them.
ROTLOL Not one of these yo yos can do the right thing regarding illegals. All they want to do is keep the gravy train rolling.
For third-world wages.

Newt jumped the shark on illegal immigration. As an influential member of the 1986 congress that passed the last amnesty, Newt knows full well that the 1986 promise was a "one time only amnesty" that came with a promise to secure the boarder and enforcing the laws. We are still waiting on the promise to be full filled. No GOP candidate can survive being soft on illegal immigration, even if they get the nomination conservatives will simply sit out the general election rather then vote for amnesty.
I supported Newt but Amnesty for illegals is a deal breaker. I fully expect his poll numbers to drop much like Perrys' did. And I don't think glowing reviews from communist journalists are going to be of much help with the voting GOP grass roots.
We need an updated “Bracero Program”. This was a program begun during WWII to bring workers into the country in a legal way with safeguards and supervision.
Think of a ‘green card’ which is given to many more workers. The limits on the legal entry of workers is what causes illegal emigration.
The Bracero Program was cancelled in the 60s by the Democrats in response to union complaints.
The majority of illegals are men looking for work who have families they leave at home. They don’t necessarily want to become US citizens and will return home.
I'm not holding my breath.
The option of arming oneself is going to become more and more an imperative as whole segments (mostly young males) of a lawless country continue to cross the border to dwell illegally among us.
The gun rights folks on FR are generally very responsible and vociferous. However, I've seen hardly a peep from them, actually nada, on Newt Gingrich's pathetically-mixed anti-gun voting record.
The Gun Owners of America web site recently released the Grinch's abysmal gun rights voting record properly sourced through the Congressional Record.
He always had an "A" rating from the GOA until he became Speaker of the House after the GOP "Revolution" in '94. His rating then plummeted to a "D".
Where are the voices of concern from the pro-gun rights freepers here? I don't get it.
The position of Gingrich in being pro-amnesty and yet weak on gun rights should raise the hairs on a lot of people's heads.
And don't anyone tell me he's not pro-amnesty. A stinkweed by any other name still smells as bad. To paraphrase the Good Book...."Be not deceived, we are not mocked."
