    They could grow up to become parents of Republican governors:

    Well, at least they weren't gay or had children out of wedlock or both

    Wow, another Republican who doesn't practice what they preach. I'm shocked, I'll tell ya. Shocked!

    Doesn't retroactively practice through his grandparent's sex life what he preaches?

    Who is he, this guy?

    I was sure this would be about Marco Rubio.

    Has no bearing. She's the grandchild of illegal immigrants. What that has to do with her stand on the issue is beyond me.

    Agree with YF. We're talking about records from the 1930 census? How that has any bearing on the problems we face today that are exacerbated by illegal immigration -- crime, the drug trade, the educational system, emergency rooms and health care at large -- escapes me.

    I wish my kids were anchor babies in a EU country where you get citizenship just by being born there. Too bad my wife can't get a German passport.

    She indirectly benefitted from illegal immigrancy and now she wants a law that would prevent other illegals from benefitting.

    And the strange thing is, I'd agree with her on the law. Except right now, this makes her look hypocritical.

    Well if we can ignore the current world by worrying about a birth certificate from 1961, why can't we worry about census records from 1930?

    I swear on all that is holy I am going to have to dedicate my life to educating people on the proper use of that word. Holy mother of mercy. *head explodes*

    If she is willing to retroactively take away her grandparents drivers' licenses, I'm in her corner.

    Illegals should be rounded up and sent home, lest they spawn more conservative politicians.

    If she was Mormon, she could baptize her grandparents, get them drivers licenses, and grant them citizenship -- all while they're dead.

    Kidding folks. Just kidding.
