Huckabee Releases Immigration Plan

Friday, December 7, 2007

DES MOINES, Iowa -- Republican presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee proposes

to stop illegal immigration with a Mexico border fence, more border patrol

agents and forcing illegal immigrants to go home before they can return.

Released Friday, Huckabee's plan takes a tough stance -- similar to those of

his GOP rivals -- though he has been more forgiving of some here illegally:

As Arkansas governor, Huckabee attempted to make children of illegal

immigrants eligible for scholarships and in-state college tuition.

Huckabee defended that Arkansas effort at a debate last month: "In all due

respect, we are a better country than to punish children for what their

parents did. We're a better country than that."

His new immigration plan does not address education, health care or other

services provided to illegal immigrants that strain communities in

early-voting Iowa and other places where people are angry about the issue.

In addition to building the fence and installing surveillance cameras along

the border, adding law enforcement agents and making people go home, the

plan would, among other things:

Punish employers who hire illegal immigrants, create a system to verify

citizenship and stop the IRS and Social Security Administration from

accepting fake Social Security numbers.

Pass a tax plan, called the FAIR tax, which would eliminate the IRS as well

as income, corporate, payroll and other taxes in favor of a 23 percent sales

tax. Huckabee said this would create an economic disincentive for illegal

immigration.

Eliminate the visa lottery system and admission preferences for brothers and

sisters of citizens, increase visas for highly skilled and educated

applicants and expedite processing for Armed Services members.

His plan quickly drew criticism from a spokesman for rival Fred Thompson,

Jeff Sadosky, who said the plan "contradicts everything he did as governor."

He pointed out Huckabee denounced a 2005 raid on illegal immigrants at an

Arkansas poultry plant and gave $1,000 in state funds to help children whose

parents were arrested.

He reminds me of another ex-gov or Arkansas who said one thing on the campaign trail

and then did something else when he attained the office he was seeking. I don't

think Huckabee is to be trusted. Are people really stupid enough to think that he is

going to change all his governor-stances if he becomes president? I think he's done

too many dangerous things to start believing him now....AAC

Yep, I completely agree.

They've done it before....

He won't admit it but there is a pattern of his clemency and pardoning being

directly associated to his thinking the criminal has found Jesus.

I think if he wants to live his life that way and give the benefit of the

doubt to allegedly reformed criminals that's his business.

But that makes him a non-starter for me as President.

When he was trying to dodge the claim that there might be a relationship

between his pardoning and religious conversion he stated that he was faced

with a prison overcrowding problem.

Hello!?

Prison overcrowding is caused by too many prisoners.

Too many prisoners is caused by too many criminals.

Too many criminals is caused by POOR LEADERSHIP at all levels in YOUR state.

This is exactly the type of soft-headed thinking that prevented Clinton from

correctly and properly dealing with Al Qaeda and the Taliban.
