    NC Craig Medans Talks Tough on Immigration

    Madans talks tough on immigration

    Illegal immigration has been a hot topic lately in Charlotte.

    CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Craig Madans is gearing up for another run at mayor, and he is focusing on a major issue.

    The Democrat, who lost to Pat McCrory in 2003, said Friday that McCrory has been dragging his heels on illegal immigration.

    “The mayor’s been here for 10 years,� he said. “Illegal immigration didn’t all of a sudden just up and start.

    “We brought it up as an issue, and now he is discussing it as an issue.�

    Craig Madans is taking a hard stance on illegal immigration.
    McCrory, who has served as mayor longer than anyone in Charlotte’s history, said earlier this week that he wants a task force to research the problem.

    “I want to make sure -- at a minimum -- that we're enforcing immigration laws, especially when undocumented workers are breaking the law in our city,� he said.

    Madans is taking a hard stance on the issue.

    “If it is illegal, and that is the law of the land and that is the law here in Charlotte, it must be enforced,� he said.

    Ed Mulheren, McCrory’s opponent in the Republican primary, said he wants to do more than just send out police to round up illegal immigrants. He said he would target the employers who are hiring them.

    Well....this is great news and about time a politician said "if it is the law of the land, then it is the law here" wherever here is.

    I would even help hold McCrory's feet to the fire with chains and locks if it would do any good. Somebody needs to be in charge with enough power to secure the border and deport illegals along with their anchor babies.

    Just how is Bush going to stop terrorists in Iraq when he can't even stop unarmed illegals crossing the border and has no intention of doing so?

    I kinda think McCrory may be thinking of a seat somewhere in DC later on with this hot immigration issue. I think he's got bigger fish to catch in the DC fishing pond.
    I wonder how many illegals got their NC driver licenses renewed last week? President Bush needs to protect the borders not illegals. President Bush is a coward and guilty of treason when it comes to securing the borders.

    If he will show that he has the intestinal stamina to stand up and fight this illegal invasion then he will get my vote for the next step up. But he's got to show some real fighting spirit.
