So unemployment is over 10% and this asshole has the audacity to hire a bunch of illegal wetbacks to work for him?
WASHINGTON – Former Secretary of State Colin Powell says illegal immigrants do essential work in the U.S. and that he has firsthand knowledge of that — because they fix his house.
A moderate Republican, Powell urged his party on Sunday to support immigration generally because those who come from abroad are, in his words, "what's keeping this country's lifeblood moving forward."
Powell said a path to legal status should be offered to illegal immigrants because they do work that needs to get done.
At his own house, he said on NBC's "Meet the Press," illegal immigrants are always around when he needs work done.
He did not specify whether he hired them directly or they showed up with contractors.
