@advodude: can you give me a word or two summarizing your opinion of Koch, Norquist, Armey, Chamber of Commerce, Wells Fargo, and Walmart?

@advodude: why then are you on the same side of #immigration as #Koch, @USChamber, Armey, etc. etc.? What do they want, & why do you help?

@24AheadDotCom not sure I follow. What side of immigration do you think I'm on?

@advodude: based on your posts on #Upworthy, you're on the pro-massive #immigration & amnesty side (same as Koch, Bloomberg, Murdoch...)

@24AheadDotCom ah no it's more nuanced than that but I actually have friends in the community and think of them as actual humans.

@advodude: what do chicken processors & growers want from amnesty? Why are you on *their* side, not the side of workers?

@advodude: 1. Almost all think of illegal aliens as humans. 2. Please explain "nuanced". Do you support legalizing most illegal aliens?

@24AheadDotCom 1. The fact that you refer to undocumented immigrants as illegal aliens leads me to believe you don't. Humans aren't illegal.

@24AheadDotCom 2. I support finding a path to citizenship, especially for dreamers. They aren't the problem. Our immigration system is.

@advodude: calling someone an illegal alien isn't dehumanizing, just legally correct: http://24ahead.com/s/immigration-terminology

@advodude: you support legalizing illegal aliens, thus you're on same side of #immigration as those I listed before. What do they want?

@24AheadDotCom I support marriage equality too. Just like Dick Cheney. a stopped clock is correct twice a day.

@advodude: that's not a relevant analogy. If you found yourself on same side of fracking as Cheney & Exxon, wouldn't that be a warning sign?

@24AheadDotCom Not really. Policies speak for themselves. Just because someone I hate likes something doesn't always make it bad.
