Please do it right or don't start it at all President Obama! [View All]

I applaud the President's interest in immigration reform. I believe he is genuinely concerned and wants to reform the system. It is past time.

However, I do not want a start to another seemingly wandering move through possible solutions to fixing the problem. The last thing we need is another beginning with shifting guidance and no end game in sight.

This is a difficult issue to say the least, and one in which the Party of No will use that word louder than ever. It will take a very determined and coordinated effort to change anything. If one issue will galvanize the loons even more than health care reform, this is it. They think an immigrant is somebody they don't know personally.

I am not one of the people who is of the mind that President Obama should only tackle one issue at a time. However, I do believe that there are enough problems that have been tackled and that have not come to any real conclusion.

Don't start down the immigration reform road and leave it littered with with more ill will and unnecessary squabbles with people who are allies and want to help. This makes it much harder to ever try again if it can't be done now. If you don't know where you want to go and the steps that have to be reached to get there, you will never make it.
