From one Washington insider:
I just read the Frist piece you have up. It didn’t boost my confidence, and I think that even though pushing for the border security funding (which we were doing anyway), isn’t going to relieve the concerns about this: “Nearly everyone who has lived here illegally less than two years will have to return to their country of origin and apply through ordinary channels if they ever hope to live here legally” If I read this right, he’s saying that it’s okay that nearly 10 million people who have been here ILLEGALLY for longer than two years never have to go home, and that’s okay. And that we should be able to support this idea be cause “nearly everyone” who has been here illegally for less than two years will have to go home and follow the law. The trade off is that a few million have to follow the law so that 10 million don’t? He’s going to get killed by the right. I’m disappointed.
