Republicans Believe Illegal Immigration 'Should be a Crime'
Politics
The US Supreme Court's decision to make businesses subject to losing thier business licenses in Arizona gave Republicans support to run with the illegals as a campaign issue.
Republicans now can push the illegals issue to offset the political loses from the Paul Ryan 'reduce medicare' which Republican try to ridicule calling this "medicSCARE'; but, Democrats are running with a win on mediSCARE in a New York House of Representative special election last week.
2 wedge issues:
1. illegals are criminals
2. medScare

(CNSNews.com) – Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D.-Fla.), chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, denounced Republicans last week for believing illegal immigration “should in fact be a crime.”
“I think the president was clearly articulating that his position--the Democratic position--is that we need comprehensive immigration reform,” said Wasserman Schultz at a Christian Science Monitor Breakfast on May 26.
“We have 12 million undocumented immigrants in this country that are part of the backbone of our economy and this is not only a reality but a necessity," she said. "And that it would be harmful--the Republican solution that I’ve seen in the last three years is that we should just pack them all up and ship them back to their own countries and that in fact it should be a crime and we should arrested them all.”
