You’d have hated Reagan since he granted amnesty to millions of illegals.

When the perfect conservative falls from heaven, I will happily vote for them, but in the meantime Perry will have to do !

This again?

OK, here are the facts concerning Reagan's Amnesty:

1. It actually had enforcement included in it, tough sanctions against illegals and employers that were never implemented. The same cannot be said about McCain's Amnesty bill that Perry backed.
2. Reagan admitted to his son Michael that his Amnesty bill was probably the biggest mistake of his political career
3. The hope was that his bill would solve the problem by legalizing those here and removing the incentive for future Illegal Immigration (see #1 and #2).
4. The amnesty did nothing but increase Illegal Immigration, because Illegals saw no downside to coming here illegally.
5. Given #1, #2, #3, and #4, why does Rick Perry still think it's a good idea to give Amnesty to the Illegals currently here in the US?

So you’re defending Perry by saying Reagan granted amnesty? And by the way, he also said amnesty was never to happen again. What part of never again did Rick Perry miss? Unlike Rick, Reagan did not love amnesty. Unlike Rick, Reagan believed in US sovereignty and had no desire to open our borders to the world because unlike Rick, Reagan was a conservative.

There are few things on this earth worse than these amnesty RINOs who, just like Romneybots, use Ronald Reagan’s name to support their RINO candidate’s progressive acts.
