American voters will not accept amnesty. BTW, Gingrich does not advocate amnesty. No wonder it didn’t make sense to you. Only the left wants us to think Gingrich is for amnesty. And you did... for a while.

Under Gingrich's plan an illegal alien would be rewarded for eluding apprehension until the time came for him to "step out of the so called shadows".

He, the illegal would be forgiven for all the years he remained underground and illegal in this country. Please tell me how that forgiveness does not constitute amnesty.

Because from the immigration definition of amnesty it means citizenship is also given...that is not what Newt’s plan entails.

They have to have a job...they will be fined.. they have to learn English...and they will not have citizenship if they accept being “legal”...otherwise they have to go back to their country and apply for citizenship thru normal proceedures. They will not be able to haul their extended families here.

You just don’t know what amnesty is apparently - you just hate on a candidate because you want to bring a different candidate up?

Without commenting on the illogic of that, let me be the one to tell you that amnesty gives citizenship. Gingrich does not want that. So on it’s face your assertion is untrue/ignorant.
