"Get right with the law" is the trendy new poll-tested slogan that's supposed to make both amnesty-resistant Americans and illegal aliens accept whatever so-called immigration reform Congress considers. Alas, playing with words will not sell amnesty to Americans or non-amnesty to illegals.
House Republicans went into a "retreat" in a Maryland hideaway to consider a statement of "principles" put before them by the House leadership. Sen.

Myth: The plan is not amnesty because illegals will have to pay fines and back taxes, learn English, and pass background checks. In fact, all those requirements are a farce: It's impossible to calculate back taxes, the aliens, of course, will never learn English before they get amnesty,...
