Immigration

I have just a passing thought on immigration and the bill/bills that the republican party are about to pass in the Senate.

It seems that the republicans don't want to learn the lessons of the past. While I vote overwhelmingly republican, I consider myself a Reagan Conservative. I am not truly beholden to any particular party. That being said, the republicans, if they continue on their course of immigration destruction, are going to learn the hard way what the democrats have already faced. Voters, if ignored, can bite you in the a%$ and quickly vote you out of office.

Instead of playing politics and pandering to the possible negative votes of the illegal and legal mexicans (and to be fair, Canadians and any other person who wants to live here) of this country, give them ideas and solutions so that no matter how you vote on the immigration issue (and I believe that anyone who is here illegally should be returned immediately, whether black, white, green, red or purple) they trust you to treat them fairly and give them a way to immigrate quickly and legally into this country.

At the end of the day I don't believe it is about handouts, which is typically the solution of the liberal party, it's about ideas and ideals. If we work with that, we are head and shoulders above what the opposition has to offer.....which is nothing.
