Gabrielle Giffords' "path to citizenship" proposal for illegals is a scam

Gabrielle Giffords is a stealth liberal candidate, and if allowed to be elected, she will march in lock step with liberals Clinton, Kennedy, Schumer, Pelosi, et al.

Gabrielle Giffords' proposal to offer a "path to citizenship for illegal aliens" is completely unworkable and she knows it. Such a deliberate attempt to hoodwink the public is the hallmark of the stealth liberal candidate masquerading as a moderate.

Look at her proposal. She states that illegal workers should be allowed to become citizens if they merely pay back taxes and learn English. Really? And how many illegal workers keep verifiable records of their employment income? And what employer of illegal workers is going to provide such verification? And who is going to research these records and in what time frame?

There is simply no reliable way to verify the income of illegal workers. What is to keep an illegal worker from reporting no taxable income? What is to keep an illegal worker from reporting just enough income to qualify for earned income credit? Will the illegal worker now get social security benefits and a check for earned income credit, based on past illegal employment, all in exchange for applying for citizenship? Hmmm, sounds like amnesty to me!

Currently, it takes a minimum of ten years and many thousands of dollars to achieve citizenship for applicants who follow the law. The very idea that an estimated 12 to 20 million illegal aliens could be processed for citizenship by an already over taxed immigration bureaucracy is simply ludicrous.

It is simply unreasonable to expect that such a plan could ever be enacted. Gabrielle Giffords knows that this plan is unworkable, as its deficiencies were discussed at length last Spring in the US House of Representatives.

Gabrielle Giffords knows that if she told you that she favors total amnesty for illegal aliens that you probably wouldn't vote for her. So she resurrected this flawed plan that was thoroughly discredited last Spring in Congress and hopes that you won't notice.

The fact that Gabrielle Giffords would attempt to scam the public with such an unworkable plan for dealing with illegal immigration shows that she is unworthy of your vote.

The fact that Gabrielle Giffords proposes to give citizenship to individuals who have evaded US immigration and tax laws without penalty, while an American citizen or employer who is guilty of income tax evasion faces strict penalties, shows what is on Gabreille Giffords' mind: Amnesty for illegals.
