Ron Dodges Immigration Position Just Like He Dodged TABOR

You may remember the recent controversy about an Oregon GOP Party resolution proposing that the children of undocumented immigrants should be denied citizenship ... and how Ronnie has been doing his darndest to back pedal from the hardline immigration policy he took during the primary.

But try as he might to deny it, the truth is Ron is relying on the same GOP folks to get him elected. Just this past Thursday, Ron was in Wasco County at an event hosted by county party chair Jim Lehmn who wrote the same radioactive resolution.

Here at SaxtonWatch, we'd like to comment on Ron's reliance on someone like Lehman to advance his campaign, but the fact is that we're not sure where he stands on the issue. Just a couple of weeks ago, he said, "I really think immigration is an adult issue...I'm entirely focused on the adult issue."

But then again, this is the same guy who won the GOP primary running ads decrying the cost of public education for the children of immigrants.

So which is it, Ron? Can you really neatly divide adults and children, or is this simply more political posturing to get yourself elected?
