FreedomTalks

Last fall, our chairman, Dick Armey, spoke at a conference hosted by Reason here in D.C. Today, Reason.tv, the new video project from the organization.

They’ve posted a clip of Armey talking about immigration and the role liberty — for all people — has played in this country’s history.

Here’s the gist of his statement:

“The biggest immigration problem we got in America is a government that’s not doing its job,” says Armey. “I don’t like illegal immigration, but I’ll tell you something: I don’t run stop lights. But you put me out on the road at two o’clock in the morning on the way to the all-night drugstore to get medicine for my babies, and you give me a stop light that is stuck on red, and no traffic in sight, and I’m gonna go through that red light.”

Here’s the clip (about three minutes long).
