I have a different perspective. I had to help our Hispanic pastor fill out his permanent residency papers. It was a nightmare. Here was a man who had done everything legally and the government made it nearly impossible. We had to send Membership rolls, Pictures of our church (inside and out), Give letters assuring he had a job, an hour by hour accounting of what he would be doing, a letter stating his job was unique and invaluable, 2 years worth of church financial records, as well as his own personal requirements. This is just a portion of what we had to do and when we turned it in, they sent us a letter requiring us to basically do it all again. Now I here people say, "Let these people go home and get back in line." That, to me, shows ignorance of the system. The illegals that are here were never in line. You have to have money, education, sponsors, job prospects, etc. Most of the illegals are poor people just looking for a way to get a life. Are they right to cross our borders illegally, no. However, we need to come up with a reasonable policy which allows honest POOR people to come to our country and then they'll get in line. Another idea I have (I should be president on this one). Many of these illegals come here just looking for an opportunity to work ANY job. We have a bunch of people on our welfare rolls who sponge off the system and refuse to work. Let's round all those people up and send them to Mexico and keep all the illegals who want to work and pay into the system. My name is Pastorbps and I approved this message!

Pastor, I understand.. BUT

Did you ever steal something when you were young that wasn't yours? I mean it was a necessity in your mind and after you done it.. you thought of all sorts of reason why you should keep it. You might have even told some friends and they also agree with you.. you should just keep it.

When basically it's wrong and you stole something from someone that was working hard and doing it all right. You took what was not yours regardless of how you compartmentalize.

In one such instance I can remember.. I had to take it back and being young I cried and apologized. Then later I purchased it on my own and I sure felt better about it.

I've noticed the obvious accusation that Mike Huckabee has flip-flopped on this issue. However, can any of you show me where the Gov. supported anything other than measures taking care of the children of illegals? I've not seen nor in my research found any prior stance on the issue that could allow anyone to call Gov. Huckabee a flip-flopper on immigration. I'm open to the facts if I can see them. I've looked and can't find them.

From the article:

Mr. Huckabee has faced some of the same questions, and yesterday's pledge — signed at a press conference with Numbers USA Executive Director Roy Beck — was an effort to provide answers.

It's a major reversal from less than two months ago, when Mr. Beck told The Washington Times that Mr. Huckabee was "an absolute disaster" on immigration during his time as governor. Americans for Better Immigration, another group Mr. Beck runs, has rated Mr. Huckabee's record as "poor."

Mr. Huckabee fought for tuition breaks for illegal-alien college students, failed to complete an agreement to let state police enforce federal immigration law and criticized enforcement efforts both at the federal and state level.

No, because if I move any thing about Huckabee there, people will get miffed at me and frankly, I'm weary of that.

I agree. That's why I said about the shot glass thread being moved. The only thing that seems to stay on the general forum is the Huckabee of the day threads/posts.

That's only because we don't have a forum for that.

Couldn't we move it to the board of wisdom and make PG look at all the Huckabee threads :D

Who has been getting miffed over their threads being moved? C'mon people. Get a life. It's just a meaningless thread on a message board. GET OVER IT!

Sorry Shellie, that some people are so immature.

Actually, I have thought a political forum is a good idea. THAT way I don't have to wade through all the other stuff to find the Huckabee video thread all the time. :twisted:

How about just starting a new forum with all NEW posts going there for a while, and then after Huckabee quits :roll: and Ron Paul is the Republican nominee, you could move all the old, then outdated prediction threads.

Just and idea.....no kiddin' :wink:
