Hillary Clinton opposes mass deportations, promotes illegal immigration (AP malfeasance)

I've been unable to find out which Associated Press "reporter" wrote this:

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton said Tuesday that illegal immigrants are "everywhere in America" and that comprehensive immigration reform - not mass deportation - is the solution to the problem.

If the "reporter" had been doing their job, they would have pointed out to Hillary that no national figure is calling for mass deportations, and she's engaging in a strawman argument.

Clinton said the issue is a complicated one that has become distorted by politicians seeking electoral gains. "They are decent people," she said of illegal immigrants. "They're everywhere in America."

And they might vote! Oh, wait, she didn't say that, even if she might have been thinking it. While it's acceptable to say that most or almost all illegal aliens are "decent people", it's not acceptable to say that all are as she did. Unless we're talking about saints, every group of people has both good and bad members. And, unless she's going to follow statements like that with a statement like, "most of them are good people, but we have to support our laws and encourage them to return home", she's promoting giving them amnesty and is thus selling illegal immigration.

If you know someone in Iowa, please urge them to go to her appearances, ask her tough questions designed to reduce her credibility, and then upload the response to Youtube.
