You have even boasted of your hiring illegal aliens to do work around your home.

Even though you KNOW that what I said was that I don't ask people if they are illegals, it was still wrong to do, and I have stopped the practice. If you had been paying attention, I have changed my position on immigration as well. But if you want to continue to mischaracterize what I said, I guess that is your right. If you think I am not a Conservative, go back and read what I said about scorpions.

Pukin, I have not seen any posts on your part, which reflect a change of position on illegal aliens, but I will take your word and I applaud you for that. That said, I don't believe I mischaracterized what you said, nor did I see what you said about scorpions, but I don't see any point in belaboring the issue.

We do need to be respectful and not divisive. However, illegal immigration is a major issue being debated in the House, Senate, and at lower levels of government. It is a divisive issue, but then so was the Mier's appointment. It is easy to say, "Let's be pragmatic, and allow amnesty." That however is like trying to sweep an elephant under your rug. The long term consequences are too profound, and many wanting amnesty want to stop the debate. Let's be respectful, but continue with the debate.
