Mexicans and the Republican Party

According to the Republicans latest flavor of the day, Newt: immigrant good, sort of. Newt doesn't want to deport all of them, he just not sure which ones to deport.

Furthermore as I have always stated here at the Presidio the facts are in our favor. Immigrant good for the United States.

More facts: The most scrupulous study I’ve seen of the economic impact of illegal immigration — by Gordon Hanson, an economist at the University of California, San Diego — weighed the costs to society (schools, health care, etc.) against the benefits (tax revenues, labor productivity, etc.) and concluded that the difference was “close enough to zero to be essentially a wash.” The idea that illegal immigrants are dragging down the economy is just wrong.

But listen to Mitt Romney whose grandfather illegally immigrated to Mexico, by the way.





He can't figure out what he wants, but then he falls back to, "we must secure the border first." His lack of immigration ideas begins at the 4:05 mark. 


And finally some advise to the Republicans, especially those in Texas. Instead of trying to steal our vote why not try to win it?
