You are parsing what she has said. I note your pushing Herman Cain and he claims he'll deport. Again, the problem in MONEY as he'd find out if he'd ever held office. Massive incarceration and deportation would be expensive. We only need to build the fence, give Border Patrol free reign and enforce the law.
AGAIN, illegals fled when Arizona passed their law. Mass deportation isn't necessary if they find the laws enforced.
Illegal Immigrants Flee Arizona Enforcement, Sanctuary Cities Attract Them
With no sanctuary cities they'd be out of luck and keep running back to Mexico.
Are you a retread?
Of course I’m parsing what she said. That’s how you tell the difference between what a politician says and what a politician means.
I am not opposed to a fence, to e-verify, and to allowing border patrol to do their jobs. If, as you claim, the majority of illegals will flee voluntarily than the cost of incarceration and deportation would be a fraction of what you are concerned about.
As far as where she has pushed amnesty one she stopped representing McCain, that was her position and she has not refuted it. It is not my responsibility as a voter to try and dig up a re-affirmation of her original pro-amnesty stance. It is her responsibility as a candidate to loudly and clearly refute such a stance.
Am I a retread? I am a conservative with loyalty to my country, and not to any political party. If the Republicans nominate a suitable candidate like Herman Cain (who supports deportation of illegals, not a path to citizenship for them), they will have earned my vote. If they nominate Sarah Palin - and she refutes her McCainish approach to amnesty - they will have earned my vote.
If they nominate someone who is going to print greencards for the 20-30 million people who snuck into the country, they will not.
