You know -- I don't think it's even just misunderstanding I think it's you know we are so used to them.

Political partisan bickering on this issue that we refuse to see each other as human beings I think I think that's really more.

Didn't -- Joseph specifically look at him gap I don't you don't know my question is that slight.

You were just talking about having people intense with no air conditioning it's a 12030.

Greece isn't that as a -- -- -- you mean.

-- -- And yes give me.

Yes I am.

With a -- well I've had already happened million people come through those towns.

And then survived the weather and controversy is a good program save millions and millions of dollars.

Taxpayers' money so I have no problems.

Putting inmates in the -- The -- -- all of their -- that ethnic background.

Do you feel Jose is by the way Filipino you know American he's -- guys Valentino.

You know Spain occupy the Philippines to force entries thank you for saying that reminding people that -- -- many.

Filipino.

People have been Hispanic Hispanic names.

But here is his my my question -- yet is what the president did political pandering.

Look I mean saying that the president is playing politics is like saying LeBron did you know LeBron gets on the court in -- basketball.

I mean you can interpret that any way you want but always notice they're 36.

Undocumented people and not covered right because of what the president did.

I I want everybody that wants to come to this country.

-- that wants to a barrel laws wants to respect.

American culture and traditions I want them all here but.

The thing that bugs Tea Party years.

Is this arbitrary -- of the rules like do we do we do we keep changing the rules from the top down.

I think Barack Obama had an opportunity to work -- Marco Rubio.

I think there's been an opportunity to do this and this is a political football.

And this is a failure of politics it's a -- in the INS.

And it's a failure.

Of an unwillingness of both parties -- to set a set of rules and then implement the same roles.

Tea Party values treat everybody exactly like everybody else under the laws of -- Now I agree with that I completely agree with you than -- one of the things that I really had to learn -- How incredibly outdated the whole immigration code -- the tax code is complicated look at immigration code right instead of giving people visas were giving were -- people to be smugglers.

And I think the fact that we haven't been able to actually put the partisanship aside and say look.

This is an issue that needs solving united -- a couple of nights ago I got so many emails from Tea -- -- and the commitment saying I agree with you let's solve this issue.

But the point here is this we need comprehensive.

Immigration reform we dealt with a million people there's twelve million people like me around this country we pay taxes we contribute to this country and men want an actress and then -- Let's you have to -- the last word share are you in favor of immigration reform would you end under any circumstances back.

Kind of a legalization.

-- normalization.

Of the eleven or twelve million who are here who do not have criminal records if they paid a fine if they otherwise were qualified to -- A prominent on the tell you something in summary I took an oath of office to enforce all the laws that the laws are on the books aren't going to enforce them if -- change the laws -- get rid of them.

I won't be involved that's -- position as the elected sheriff and that's the way I do it I enforce the laws.
