ILLEGAL Immigration

That's I-L-L-E-G-A-L, get it?

The debate on illegal immigration has reached a new tone of absurdity.
The half-wits at the US Conference of Catholic Bishops have added their shrieks to the crescendo building on the Left.

Cardinal Theodore E. McCarrick, the archbishop of Washington, said Catholic parishes and social service agencies see firsthand the results of the current law, including long waits for family reunification and mistreatment of illegal aliens. He added that bishops also are "disturbed with the current public discourse," which they see as anti-immigrant.

So now if you are "anti-law-breakers" you are reclassified as "anti-immigrant". Nice twist of words.

McCarrick then goes on to add this piece of stupidity:
Cardinal McCarrick said religious teachings justify aiding illegal aliens.

"We go right to the New Testament and say, him or her who is without sin cast the first stone," he said. "How many of us have not violated some laws, whatever they might have been -- either they're traffic laws or immigration laws or tax laws, something like that."

We'll skip the blatent mis-use of scripture here, and just concentrate on taking this statement to its (not so) logical conclusion: from this time forward, if any one breaks any law, we must not prosecute or punish them. They must be forgiven (we'll forget the mis-use of forgiveness here for the time being also).

So, as far as these Bishops are concerned, rapists, go ahead and rape. Murders, keep it up. All is forgiven.
