When he said that last night it kinda took me aback that he just flat out said that on Meet the Press.

At least he can be honest about it. I bet there are tons of politicians who rail against illegal immigration and yet still knowingly use it as a source of labor.

Pretty much everybody with money has illegals working for them. You can just drive down the street early in the morning and pick one up for a day if you want. The women clean and the men do construction/landscaping. They're hardworking and appreciate the work. What's not to like?

What if the people were hardworking undocumented tax payers? Would it be OK in your eyes for them to be "working under the table" because they wanted to avoid taxation? So, if you're non-American it's ok to come to the US and show flagrant disregard for the rule of law but Americans are expected to walk in lockstep with whatever the government tells them to do, like good like servants. Colin Powell should be fined or jailed as should others.

I certainly don't bother with all the gov't forms and taxes for the guy who cuts my grass. I've never checked his papers, but it's a pretty safe bet he's legal given that he's an older black man. I pay him $40 twice a month tax free. Throw me in jail. Please.

Not surrendering all your convictions and independent thoughts to your party makes you a sell-out?  Wow, I must have been TOTALLY misusing that word.

He completely supports everything Obama is doing, to call himself some sort of Republican is foolish.

*raises hand* I make sure the people who come on to my property are American citizens. I don't need any insurance issues if their is an injury.
