And I knew then that we would have a long, hard slog restoring the respect for the rule of law, but I have set about doing that since that period of time. More than 30 years later, we are here on the floor strengthening the rule of law after all this time, after the amnesty that has been advocated by others. Each decade we seem to have to have a battle. They want to come with what they now call comprehensive immigration reform. Just about anybody in America knows if you say ``comprehensive immigration reform,'' you really mean amnesty. I say to them: Just be honest. If you think amnesty is a good idea, why do you say all those three words when you can say ``amnesty'' and be honest?
