Immigration

I have been looking into Huckabee's stand on Immigration. What I find is encouraging to me. Read his stands on immigration on his official site.

He made a lot of points there and I will give you a brief synopsis.

Huckabee states that the currently unsecured borders are a top priority and that he supported the bill to appropriate money for border security.

Immigration is a national security issue that must be addressed.

He opposes amnesty to illegals currently in the states, strikes down hard on sanctuaries and places of refuge for illegals, and stands against giving driver's licenses to illegals.

This is a short condensed list but it gives you a feel for what he will do as president. I totally agree that unsecured borders are a top priority. We are spending tons of money in Iraq and around the world fighting a war on Terror. While the war on Terror is important, ( I believe in fighting terrorist on their own ground ) we are currently neglecting a massive gap in our defenses. It is deplorable that people can so easily slip into the United States. How hard would it be for a terrorist to sneak in through the Mexican or Canadian borders with a Nuclear bomb?

Who is on the top of the list of terrorist targets? America. Then why on earth can't these people in our government get their priorities straight? We need our borders secured and secured now.

All the fuss about what to do with people who are already here is silly. They broke our laws, came here wrongly, and neither they nor anyone else should complain if they are deported. Hey guys, if I went to Mexico illegally and the Mexican government said, "Get out" then I would not be mad at the government. After all, it would be my fault and I'd be in the wrong for being there!

I am tired of watching people act like they don't know what to do about the immigration problem. The answers are crystal clear, unfortunately, people in government often do not want to implement and enforce their own laws.
