Gingrich: Immigration Deal Sells Out U.S. Security
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich used the Georgia Republican Convention on Friday to air complaints about a Senate compromise on immigration reform. He called the plan a citizenship "giveaway," adding, "These inherited bureaucracies do not work." He also slammed the federal government's inability to track the illegal immigrants already in the country, who are believed to number 12 million, and quipped that shipping companies would do a better job, according to The Associated Press. Gingrich said, "Allocate $$200 million to send a package to every person who's here illegally. When UPS and FedEx deliver them, we'll know exactly where they are."

I think it's that bad. And I would challenge everybody currently running for president to indicate whether they would sign or veto this bill - nothing in between." "This is a terrible sellout of American security," Gingrich concluded. © NewsMax 2007. All rights reserved.
