Hensarling's Calling It Amnesty

Dallasblog.com | Caroline Walker:
“In an e-mail distributed to his constituents today, Congressman Jeb Hensarling outlines his opposition to the Immigration Reform legislation under discussion. Highlights: 'This bill contains a provision that would provide over 12 million illegal immigrants currently residing in the United States with amnesty. This is simply unacceptable.' ”
Ed Cognoski responds:

It will be a long time, if ever, for Hensarling to muster a majority of Congress and a President to agree to hunt down, capture, intern and deport 12 million American residents. The options that leaves are compromise or the status quo. I infer from his e-mail that he prefers the status quo. It may just be within his power to maintain it.
