people immigrate here unskilled and untalented. we need to that up number. we have to have more skill based immigration. the second thing we have to do is reinforcement that includes improving the infrastructure at the border and getting operational control of the border. work place enforce: e verify or something else that works. tracking people when they come in the country and leave as visitors. 40% of our illegal immigration are visa overstayers. bill: all of that with the technology we have should be doable. the real elephant in the room sure. bill: all right? are the 12 million illegal aliens are already here. what do you do. i don t like that either. i wish we didn t have 8 or 12 million people here undocumented but we have to deal with it in a way that s compassionate but also responsible. here is how i would deal with it if you commit a serious crime you are deported and no one would disagree with that if you haven t come forward and be fingerprinted and background
anything. bill: gun stuff. i don t agree with you. i think it should be federal. there are 32 states that still have this gun show loophole where you don t have to get a background check. that s what the universal background checks would be closing that loophole. bill: crossing the border already signed. i support that. 50% support a ban on high capacity magazine. bill: ladies it, it comes down to this. each state decides what kind of weaponry is legal. the federal government says you can t cross state lines with certain types of guns. that takes it all away. we should be presenting the stun dangerous guns from getting into dangerous hands. we should be preventing that before crimes happen rather than after. bill: 300 million guns already on the street. you are not going to prevent dangerous guns from getting dangerous hands. you are not. it s not going to happen. 2,300,000,000 guns on the

you shouldn t have done that? you know what? if i started judging people on politics in this life and i don t,. bill: you would be lonely out there. listen, do i live on the west coast. she is a lovely dame. i don t get the thing with palin. i was over at palin s during the golden globes. we were have your bring your own varmint pot luck dinner. we got up in the helicopter and blew some and lope up. bill: tickets are going crazy for the bolder fresher shows. phoenix february 22nd, l.a. kno-ho-co kia theater march 1st. selling? you know why our opening act is al roker.
