I just feel angry and betrayed by this sudden return to his unpopular amnesty proposal.

He was very plain in what he said: he's not in favor of blanket amnesty, but he wants SOME kind of plan.

You are familiar with how this works, aren't you? He says something and then other representatives say something and then they put a bill forth after they ALL discuss it.

I'm not against a guest worker plan either. It just has to be done in the right order and in the right way. And the first elements must be securing the border and providing for real interior enforcement.

Then would it be too much to ask that we wait to see what he actually DOES, rather than what the MSM says he's going to do?

And that is fine, as long as it doesn't include an amnesty or any sort of reward for the lawbreakers.

Yes, and I believe that the public has something to say about it to. We help mold their opinions based upon the way we react to the proposal. Our representatives are representing US not the cheap labor special interests or the hispanic-pandering RNC.

What he DOES will be largely based upon the way Americans react to his trial balloons.
