Here's a few simple bullet points in response to various items:
- "We're not criminals.'
Uh, yeah, if you're in the U.S. without appropriate documents, yeah, you are. Helpful hint: If you're actively afraid of being "found out" by someone in law enforcement, you're probably violating the law and worse yet, know it. - San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom restated San Francisco is a "city of refuge" and as such, it is illegal for city employees to aid federal officials investigating someone's immigration status.
Between this and their blatant disregard for the Second Amendment to the Constitution (hey everyone, it's actually there in the Bill of Rights, right between Amendments I and III.) I honestly can't figure out why San Francisco's allotment of Federal funds hasn't been cut to $0. You know, "play by our rules or you don't get our money?" This isn't a (there it is again!) Freedom of Speech issue, it's blatantly violating Federal law. - John McCain
When reading his comments to, of all groups, the AFL-CIO, can anyone doubt he's lost all touch with sanity and anything even remotely resembling Republican principles?
[...]But he took more questions, including a pointed one on his immigration plan.
McCain responded by saying immigrants were taking jobs nobody else wanted. He offered anybody in the crowd $50 an hour to pick lettuce in Arizona.
Shouts of protest rose from the crowd, with some accepting McCain’s job offer.
“I’ll take it!” one man shouted.
McCain insisted none of them would do such menial labor for a complete season. “You can’t do it, my friends.”
