So can Mitt use the word immigrant to describe his father?
Not in my opinion, maybe it’s semantics but I can’t see how an American living in another country who returns to the US can be called an “immigrant”.
I choked on this when I heard Willard say it last night in the debate and was surprised Newt didn’t call him on it.
His father was brought back to the US as a small child by his grandfather, who had fled to Mexico to carry on his polygamist Mormonism. The grandfather was a US citizen, not a Mexican, and there is no way they were “immigrants.”
That was not only pandering, in was putrid outright lying. But Romney is good at that.
