Last night, according to POLITICO, Newt Gingrich "may have had a Perry Moment". Nothing could be further from the truth.
“I don’t see how the, the party that says it’s the party of the family is going to adopt an immigration policy which destroys families that have been here a quarter-century,” he said Tuesday. “And I’m prepared to take the heat for saying, ‘Let’s be humane in enforcing the law without giving them citizenship but by finding a way to create legality so they are not separated by their families.’”
"Would you send home the illegal who came here in 1990 who now has two kids who are Americans by birth and are in high school. His son is a first string defensive back on the football team and his daughter is a straight A student and a cheerleader who wants to go to college to become a doctor? "
So where did Newt go wrong? He's talking about it!You know the answer to that question. 9 times out of 10 the answer will be, "well, not that guy".
We have an open border. The Obama administration turned off the electronic frontier and booted the funding for the fence. Obama cut the funding for the National Guard troops and sent them home. The Border Patrol is under funded, undermanned and, thanks to Obama's Justice department arming the Cartels, they are out gunned. Now Newt, who was a leading contender going into the CNN, The Heritage Foundation and the American Enterprise Institute debate last night, proved that he has no understanding of what is happening on our border. To make statements such as his could start an even bigger stampede of illegals charging the border with the idea that they can get their cards from a President Gingrich.
There should be no talk of what we will do with those already here until we secure the border. Obama has shown he has no intent to do it so he must be replaced. The only person running who has an absolute record on securing the border is Texas Governor Rick Perry with his 10 years of experience.
