Dear lord, did you just call me a leftist? That's a first for me. You must have me confused with someone else.
If you reread my original post in this thread, it says that we should shut down the porous southern border. That doesn't really jibe with leaving the door open, does it?
As for the rest, America is a nation of immigrants. Why on gods green earth wouldn't you want the best candidates to immigrate? Too often we allow international students to attend US colleges over us citizens, (only to see them take that training back to their home country). If we are going to allow it, we should retain that talent and exploit it. Is that right-wing enough to pass your purity test?
