Wetbacks and Pepper Spray

Illegal Aliens are so far out of control, that the amnesty apologists, Bush and Kasich, couldn't even agree on how many should not be deported by their twisted logic. m/r

He Likes Ike :: SteynOnline

by Mark Steyn Steyn on America 

The debate?

Well, I thought the most interesting moment came when Donald Trump brought up Eisenhower:
Let me just tell you that Dwight Eisenhower—a good  president, great president, people liked him. 'I Like Ike', right? The expression 'I Like Ike'? - moved a million and a half illegal immigrants out of this country, moved them just beyond the border: They came back. Moved them again, beyond the border: They came back. Then moved them way south. They never came back.
To the establishments of both parties and the media, Trump is beyond the pale. Yet he keeps, confidently, moving beyonder. And, as he does so, he's moving the pale. NBC News:
Sorry Trump, 'Operation Wetback' Was A National Disgrace
At this point in the evening, the candidates were arguing not whether it was disgraceful but whether it was do-able. Trump's response is that not only is it do-able but it's already been done - by a two-term Republican president. Eisenhower, by the way, was the last non-politician to be drafted as presidential nominee (and "I Like Ike" came from Irving Berlin's Call Me Madam). His sudden reappearance in the GOP pantheon is a fine example of the difference Trump's made to this primary season: without his presence in the race, no-one would be talking about the practicalities of mass deportation of illegal aliens.
