Hmm…. I don’t know about you, but I just heard him admit a mistake regarding immigration about thirty times in the last two months. He says he was wrong and is now a strong adherent of the fence first.

LOL. He still doesn’t understand that situation. Now he thinks that a border fence is the be-all and end-all of the flow of illegals into the US. He still wants to give amnesty to just about every illegal alien who can make his way to the US.

The fact is that a border fence is but one small part of the puzzle. We have tens of millions of foreigners coming through the US on tourist visas alone, every year, and it isn’t difficult for a few million of them to just decide to stay in the US once they get here. In fact, the potential flow of illegals from visa overstays far exceeds that of border infiltration. The key to the illegal alien problem will ALWAYS be interior enforcement, which McCain refused to do and still refuses to do.

But, since you think McCain is okay on this topic, could you answer a question for me – what would McCain do if, after building a border fence and giving amnesty to just about all of the illegals in the US, a couple of million illegals start flowing here through visa overstays, what would McCain do? Would he do what he says he can’t do now, since there are just too many of them?

McCain’s stance on illegals has changed little. The key is interior enforcement and McCain still REFUSES to consider it in a serious manner.
