sort of - I am more of a moderate, but anyway, I don't a pathway to citizenship for those illegals "who are already here" -
- they jumped the line (actually they cut the line, or fence or whatever) to beat those standing legally in line.
- if you grant them all citizenship, more will come 'cause they know that at some future date, ANOTHER "amnesty" or whatever you want to call it, will surely be announced by this or a future Prez.
- this will trigger a new wave of illegals eager to "be already in the US" before Congress authorizes any amnesty.
So sorry, we have plenty of problems in the US, and while I am not opposed to legal immigration (we one can even argue might be wanted and needed), I am not interested in this many illegal aliens suddenly becoming "citizens" without steady jobs, or speaking English.
Sorry fellow libs, on this one I differ. Before you start calling me "Tom Tancreado" - I am not opposed to legal immigration; but I am not in favor of rewarding those who broke our laws and in some cases, are taking jobs from Americans.
