Byron: I don’t see anything in McCain’s immigration remarks but the same old duplicitous guff.

… deal practically and humanely …

Who is arguing for inhumanity in the administration of criminal justice?

… with those who came here, as my distant ancestors did, to build a better, safer life for their families …

McCain’s distant ancestors moved from one British jurisdiction to another, without (so far as I know) breaking any laws. What does that have to do with illegal immigration?

… without excusing the fact they came here illegally or granting them privileges before those who have been waiting their turn outside the country …

Granting U.S. residence to illegal immigrants under any terms at all privileges them “before those who have been waiting their turn outside the country” How does it not? There are people in other countries who have been waiting years for U.S. residence. If illegal immigrants are granted residence without having to go to the back of the line in their home countries, how is that not “excusing the fact they came here illegally”? How is it not?

This is the Straight Talk Express? Feugh!
