Amnesty, benefits for illegal aliens

You support the McCain-Kennedy immigration scheme, and you claim - assisted by Barack Obama - that you do not support amnesty and benefits for illegal aliens. But, isn't that simply a matter of semantics?

Kennedy-McCain would wave a magic wand and declare millions of current illegal aliens to be legal residents, and eligible for billions of dollars worth of benefits. One day they'd be illegal aliens, the next day they'd be legal residents and able to receive billions and billions of dollars.

So, if we parse your statement very carefully, then you don't support benefits for illegal aliens: we'd have to wave a magic wand first before giving them benefits.
