The article doesn’t seem to support the title.

RE The usual suspects pushing immigration reform have a new ally in the fight this time — the religious right. Ralph Reed’s group, the Faith and Freedom Coalition. released a letter Tuesday that outlines broad goals for reform, like keeping families together, reforming the visa system and securing the border

I saw him on a Sunday show talking about this, I couldnt tell what he was specifically calling for, I just heard fuzzy feel good compassionate sounding general goals from him

My guess is he is trying to get Hispanic supporters for his group after last year's whipping.

No excuses. The mexican government can try to brow beat and guilt-trip Christians all they want, but if they can’t get their own house in order, then don’t expect the illegals to get any help from US citizens. We are not the safety valve, nor the welfare office for mexico. And to the people exploiting illegal workers, watch out, you will be targeted. We have had enough of this, and you will pay the consequences. Tit for tat mexico, if you want to flood El Norte with your unwanted, you really don’t want a bunch of pissed off Americans invading mexico to regain what we have lost.

The socialist fascist can have their amnesty for the 33 million plus illegals who broke into this Nation, if the violators cannot vote for more than 25 years as a punishment for breaking our laws.

..................crickets chirping....................

The silence tells you everything you need to know about this amnesty push for the illegal Mexicans in this Country! These are nothing more or less than future socialist fascist voters the moochers party needs to stay in power!

Nothing left to say!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eight Deuce on the loose!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep families together by sending the illegals home. I’m tired of my country being a dumping ground for the third world.

A popular libertarian leaning drive-home AM talk show host in New Mexico is practically chortling that this article “proves” that the Christian Right is solidly aligned with “immigration reform” aka amnesty, so we might as well just smell the coffee and get with the program.

OMG!!! How many years have I been telling you that Ralph Reed is one of Grover Norquist/Rove’s puppets!!!! HERE is your proof! The Christian right is falling for the same nonsense that the minorities fall for witht he democrats!

You’ve got to be smarter than to swallow the Ralph Reed lies...he doesn’t care about GOD or FAMILY, he cares about Ralph REED and has had enough shady deals to be in prison!

Where you find Norquist, you find Rove, and Ralph Reed, and usually Newt Gingrich. ALL AMNESTY lovers!
Norquist and his cabal are who destroyed prop. 187 in Calif. and weakened the 1986 amnesty bill. He’s a muslim convert who cares nothing about USA sovereignty. His anti tax regurgitation is just to hook you!

THEY are NOT conservatives! STop buying their lie!

In the first place,there is no evangelical hierarchy, and no evangelical leader has the right to speak for all evangelicals on a matter such as this.
What we have here is a group of evangelical elitists (with a George Soros connection) promoting a disastrous agenda. They are distorting the words of Christ to do so.
There is a recent article on this topic on the informative VDARE.COM website, which we are not allowed to link here on Free Republic. However, if you go to that website, you can scroll down and find it.
