Are There Some Real Conservatives Left?

I was beginning to wonder. I am very glad to see (at least for now) on the Reno Gazette Journal website today that the Senate Republicans refused to offer amnesty to illegal immigrants. These people are criminals and should be treated as such. There are legal channels to enter this country. Hundreds of thousands of people enter this country legally each year. What makes these people so special that they get to break the rules? This is America. You are welcome here. We have jobs for you here. We have homes for you here. We have a place for you here. We ask only one thing. That you come here legally, through our proper channels. Is that too much to ask?
