Alas it's amnesty, directly or indirectly. (although it could depend on how long it would require to apply for citizenship, which I assume would be BEFORE their 2nd 4000 payment). Assuming we buy the logic in parantheses, they are paying about the same if not maybe less (not counting legal...

Again, you're not getting it. THEY ARE AVOIDING THE CURRENT PUNISHMENT, WHAT YOU ARE SAYING IS NOT A PUNISHMENT. They may consider it a punishment, but I assure you that these are standard things required for LEGAL IMMIGRATION. The reason why you your interpretation is wrong is, again...

I've done my own research with this, and my friend's lawyer. In most cases people are held for trial, than deported. Regardless, that still CONTRADICTS WHAT YOU SAID. So what is it called when we don't punish the illegals for the crime, but instead make them pay a fine and stay anyways...

I've seen the law in practice, just not with ILLEGAL immigrants. IE my best friend who LEGALLY came to this country from haiti. He missed signing his last paper before becoming a citizen and was held in jail for SIX months, THEN DEPORTED. So yeah, I do have a good idea how it works. We've...

Under Title 8 Section 1325 of the U.S. Code, "Improper Entry by Alien," any citizen of any country other than the United States who: * Enters or attempts to enter the United States at any time or place other than as designated by immigration officers; or * Eludes examination or...

Uhhh, it's a crime. You're still REWARDING the behavior, are you this daft? So why would ANYONE apply legally and wait up to 4 years?

It is amnesty. "1. a period during which offenders are exempt from punishment " The punishment for ILLEGALLY coming to this country is to be deported, not to pay fines. You'd have a case if he was using these for people LEGALLY entering this country. Your logic is wrong because there is...

Jared Hawkins, Thank you very much for your donation of $50.00 to the Ron Paul 2008 Presidential Campaign. Your donation will allow us to expand and grow our campaign. We depend on donors like you to help us spread the message of freedom, peace and prosperity through Ron Paul’s candidacy...

How could you possibly let ONE lie (a rather benign one at that), get in the way of 30 years of consistent voting? I mean even if he had 10 more things he lied about, have you looked around lately? Whatever then, I can see it now... *dollar collapses* "Hey man, at least I proved I wasn't...

I disagree, there's many on here who have watched fox news. I don't personally, but my Mother used to. Suffice to say you can hit the target demographic with fox, even if it is smaller than a CNN's would be in term's of how receptive they are to his message. I like that he just blew hannity...

Not really... I think if we've learned anything it should be that it mostly certainly doesn't need to be true to smear someone. Sure they probably won't report it, but it's worth a shot. Yeah, and somehow I have a feeling asian populations will disagree with you. If even 5% of Mccains...

Does anyone in this forum ever stay realistic? Is this the RP forum, or the bi-polar forum? Cause every 3 days we're either in the white house already, or ready to support obama... Not really trying to flame anyone, just saying, staying neutral might be better. Humility and confidence, but...

Why doesn't RP use the comptroller general? I mean how much more official can you get. I understand he probably isn't in a good position to get political, but how many options are there? That guy has been talking about this for months, yet it isn't any more of any issue in the mainstream.

This would work real well.... At giving the MSM the ammo they need against him. I mean they already tried to get him on his earmark bills. IMO this would most certainly be used against him. (especially if ALL candidates ARE NOT taking the money as well) I just don't like this idea, it seems...

They looked as if they ignored Ron. I mean I imagine the conversation would probably be awkward. What excites me the most though was what Hillary and Guiliani were saying to eachother while laughing. Clinton "ha ha ha, when you going to get rid of this guy?. I mean we got rid of kucinich...
