Immigration has risen to the front but there is very little factual information being supplied by the media. We need immigration to supply workers for jobs Americans don\u2019t want but blanket amnesty is not the way to go.

To grant them citizenship without going through the normal channels says that it is alright to commit a crime (cross the border illegally) as long as you support those who let you in. They should go through legal channels and apply for citizenship like anyone else. It is just one more instance where liberal politicians are saying that laws don\u2019t matter as long as they serve their own self-interest. President Obama sought to weaken our border defenses and open our borders to encourage people from Mexico to flock to the US and promised to give them amnesty so they would vote for him, with no thought in regard to protecting Americans.
