#1 Putnam is an old-tyme reporter - on the job since Murrow's days - and thus he's unafraid to call it like he sees it... and he's right: 80% of US citizens (though he was referring to CA) would support enforcing the law of the land and controlling the borders. Everyone "gets it" regards the economic burden the illegals put on them and the only ones who don't mind are the professional moonbats, those experienced in spending other people's money to assuage their self-imposed guilt trips. Add in the security issue and it solidifies the 80%.

Damnit -- Do it, Ahnold. Create a sensible plan to separate the illegals already here into economic refugees from asshat Mexico / Central America - from the bad guys, the crooks and jihadis and druggies. I'll bet it's not that hard to tell them apart one on one, face to face, when the interviewer is a vet INS or Customs officer.

The plan should put the good guys back to work and on the path to legality - and jettison the bad guys 30 miles out in the Pacific - or on figgin' buses to Tiajuana, at least.

Once closed, enforce the law - use State Guard troops, if you need to, to back up the Border Patrol. Then clean out the wormy whiny types from INS, such as those who're fighting the Minutemen, instead of welcoming them.

Make a common sense plan. There still is common sense in America, it's just less common than once was true. Execute it. Don't apologize for telling the truth. Don't be swayed by the media advisors - they don't know shit about what Joe Avg thinks, as so many polls and elections have proven. C'mon Ahnold - get solid on this. Make CA the model. Do it.
