Very clever phrasing. You avoid mentioning amnesty and immigration reform. What you DO NOT mention is conservatives who love this nation will not compromise to allow illegal aliens who have broken our laws from becoming citizens.

What part of ‘illegal’ in illegal aliens don’t you understand?

The fact you need to get cemented in your brain concerning immigration is that the American people decide who gets in and remains here. With the real unemployment rate at 23% nationwide (it’s closer to 40% in my community), the U.S.A. doesn’t need immigrants.

So, you can stuff your sermonizing about hoping that “... all Freepers will see the benefits of reviewing and tweaking or modifying existing procedures after reading the facts...”

We know the facts. You obviously don’t like those facts, and dislike self-governing people who do. Go pound sand.

it will require passing laws which make it illegal to give aid and comfort to illegals.

See: "LePage, illegal aliens, welfare"

They are willing to pay enough taxes to support the unearned wages that are given to the poor.

"The poor" should live in barracks under supervision and be dispatched to the various businesses to earn their benefits. If they gain skills and can be encouraged to climb the wage ladder, they could begin to work towards entering the regular work-force.

This would only work well in a thriving economy, and with deportation reform.

...I have to believe most illegals are here for jobs.

They are here to drink and drive, rape, commit crimes collect welfare and do destructive things that regular Americans aren't willing to do.

Paul Ryan is one of the things wrong with the GOP.

I am sorry,I believe we are here to seek,speak and live in the truth and at times the truth is not as it first appears. It is for that reason that I wrote what I wrote.

I am probably far more conservative than you believe and I advocate for my country and the citizenry by continuing to caution that what will save Christianity in western civilization as well as western civilization is an informed,sane and just people who do not confuse opinions, misinformation and facts (from one or two perspectives) with the truth.

I am of the opinion that there are quite possibly more than 30 million undocumented persons living in this country. I would be delighted to have closer counts than we presently have. The numbers would have a significant impact on resolution. I don't know your thoughts on the subject but I do wish they could put a stop to the flow of people coming over for a few years at least I don't know how to secure the border but I believe it must be done.

BTW I lived in Texas in 1959 thru 64 and saw how ranchers abused the bracero program and brought unsuspecting Mexicans up and used them telling them they were part of the program.

Only illegals I came across are working as computer programmers, medical profession, accountants and technicians. But they are all from India and overstayed their student visa’s.

Wetdream?? You sound like some one I would not like to share a trench with in a battle. With an attitude like that you should run for office.

I am very aware of the challenges on the border. I have been down there since ‘05 chasing these grass crawling invaders on my dime. It is not a wetdream and it is not impossible

Too bad, those are the kind of people we want as naturalized citizens. They probably screwed that up.

I do not understand the GOPe morons. Why would you think another round of immigration laws is the answer when Obola flaunts current immigration laws? If I hear Boner say “our immigration system is broken” one more time I may lose it. The system is not broken, it is being willfully ignored.

Yes, that is why we need a sensible immigration reform.
Keep the productive immigrants, get rid of the free loaders
and criminals.

Just as with firearms issues...

there are already too many laws on the books, and we don’t need any more. What we need is enforcement of the existing laws.

“Immigration Reform” means nothing, without the specific and details.

Yet both sides (or maybe more than two sides) keep shouting it back and forth.

Amnesty, combined with the current broadcasting of those illegal aliens to every city in every state in the union would not be merely the end of the Republican party.

It would destroy any chance of a multi-party system in this country.

All the time the time the left has been complaining about the ‘two-party system,’ Patriots assumed that what they meant is that they wanted three or more parties.

But they didn’t.

What they have always wanted is a one-party system and the only viable party to be the DemocRat party.

This has been their path from soft-tyranny to outright tyranny.

“Amnesty” would give them that power.

Incidentally, back in 2008, I predicted (wrongly) that Obammie the Commie would first and foremost grant amnesty. I thought he’d put it through to prevent any GOP candidates from winning any significant position. But it appears their plan was different. They knew that he could do whatever he wanted and no one would say anything because they could always use the Race card.

So they saved this ace-in-the-hole for his last year in office, so that, AFTER DESTROYING THIS COUNTRY AND WAKING UP THE AMERICAN PEOPLE...these communists/fascists/socialists/progressives could sweep 2016 anyway.

These are sick, tyrannical effers.

There’s not that much wrong with our immigration laws, but they would be better if they were simply rolled back before the time of JFK (and Terd Kennedy)

The current term “immigration reform” is a RAT lie, I refuse to use it. The best term for the topic that I’ve heard is: “deportation and border reform”.

This historic election proves that Republicans need to reach across the aisle to get the Obama agenda done. :)

That would require a bureaucracy a lot bigger than WPA/CCC to get them to their jobs.
