Ari Fleischer: Illegals Are Entitled to Due Process Under Our Constitution

‘All persons, not citizens but persons, are entitled to due process’

RUSH EXCERPT:

FLEISCHER: "Border patrol agent and you see someone coming across the river, can’t you just send them to the other side of the river? Why do you have to let them land and go through a whole port process? On the other hand, we are a nation of laws which is what makes us great. When people do, and they are and our country, and they’ve cross the border under our constitution, all persons, not citizens but persons are entitled to due process. So we have to go through it and that’s what makes us great. It is said that laws are the restraints that make us free. And that’s true. But they are restraints and those restraints come with burdens. One of those burdens is to have a judicial process in place. I hope it’s fast, quick and fair and people who don’t belong here shouldn’t be here."
