Yes I can admit that, can you show me where Paul said he would forgive identity thief?
Do you not understand that giving permanent residency to 12 million future "taxpayers" who are now illegal aliens would necessarily have to include a provision that they will not be prosecuted for using other people's social security numbers, using fake residency cards or working for cash and not reporting said income to the IRS?
Every single working illegal alien has committed one of those crimes.
Therefore the only way that Rand Paul can favor some kind of legalization path for these people is to grant them amnesty for their crimes.
Otherwise, he would have to be in favor of deporting every single one of them.
I think he has made it perfectly clear that he wants them to stay.
Therefore, he is in favor of AMNESTY!
Got it?
