HOT AIR: How about legalization without citizenship for illegals? Hot Air poo-poos the idea, but I'm intrigued, and so is Roger Simon. Here's the idea: grant them permanent residency, but bar them forever from full citizenship (i.e., the right to vote) unless they return to their native country and wait in line as part of the normal immigration process.

It's essentially a grant of amnesty, which the Democrats so badly want, without adding to the ranks of Democrat voters, which the Republicans so badly want. What's not to like?
