        @ChasFlemming so deportation (and self-deportation) of 11-15 million people?

        No, you don't deport everybody. You set priorities like Obama claims but fails to do. You enforce employment laws. @mattklewis

        @ChasFlemming simple enough. So why won't conservative politicians who agree with this plan cop to it when asked?

        One of the problems now is mixed motives on the GOP side in favor anything that will get the hispanic voter to stop being mad. @mattklewis

        This mixed motive is why I believe you can't get straight answers from GOP politicians. The well has been poisoned. @mattklewis

        @mattklewis @JimPethokoukis Obviously, you don't pay much attention to what conservatives say. 1 cowardly politician ≠ conservatives.

        @mattklewis what's wrong with gradual deportation as they come into contact with the state? You know, how the rest of the world does it.

        @mattklewis The answer is to deport as many of them as possible. Pour encourager les autres.

        @mattklewis Conservatives that support 'amnesty' won't tell anybody what they'll do about the next 11-15 million that will come illegally.

        @mattklewis I guess they'll block all the family members of the newly legalized 11-15 million from coming here illegally? Really?
