* If the “immigration reform” bill passes, we immediately get 11 to 20 million new demonRAT voters.

And in the longer term millions more illegals that will have to be accommodated.Citizenship for the illegals here now is, in effect, promising citizenship to all of Latin America if they just get here. After a certain point the drive will be to simply grant citizenship to all of Latin America in anticipation rather than waiting till they get here. Of course, by then the Congress will carry on business in Spanish and a majority of Senators and Representatives will be Latino, some born in the country.

We will be reduced to a one-party communist system, a-la 20th Century Soviet Empire.

And the elite’s hundred plus year effort will have payed off.

No lindsay, you are doing it wrong. Tell people it’s a lesser evil. People bought it for Romney. they’ll buy it for immigration.

Or they will see you for the POS you are.

I have a feeling that if he fails in his desperate attempt to prove his loyalty to Dear Leader, we’ll find out some very interesting info about him.

If/when this bill passes, it won’t matter who you or I vote for, its over.

All I hear about them talk about are the 11 million illegals, who ALL seem to be hispanic. What about all the Somalians, Palestinians, Iraqi’s, Afghani’s, etc etc? The same folks that were cheering 9/11 and then hiding behind the 1st Amendment. What about all the radical Islamic clerics in this country who hide behind the 1st Amendment?

People talk about the obvious, I’m concerned about things like the Supreme Court. What happens when Kennedy is replaced by a Hillary appointee? We’re F**ked. That’s what happens. Good bye our guns.

What happens when the corporations, with union employees, realize they can’t get cheaper labor? They hire the newly minted citizens and toss out their proud, American union worker.

Each and everyone of them will now be allowed to vote and collect as well.

Sad that by the time the South became a Republican stronghold, it was supporting the likes of Lindsey Graham and his many other southern cohorts we call RINOs.

You are speaking truth that would not be pleasing to the Bush family.

People in SC must be among the Republicans’ most uninformed. It’s a shame they have such a say in nominating presidential candidates.

I worked at the US Embassy in Baghdad for a while. It made me sick to go to the VISA office and see them all, lining up to come here. The same country that they despised. But, when you have someone from USAID and the State Dept telling them that they can live off the US taxpayer, they couldn’t get in line fast enough.

Linda... a complete and total waste of time. He's not representing us, in effect stealing his salary and big time perks from us.

Contact Trey Gowdy and ask him to please take out Linda in the primary next year. You can use 29306-2359 for the zip code.

Undoubtedly the most far-sighted of the 20th century tyrants knew Americans better than the uninformed American people themselves.

If we don’t give amnesty to 20 million illegals and allow them to sponsor millions more of their relatives thru chain migration, we will die as a political party.

People in SC don’t even know how liberal Graham really is: they are convinced that he is conservative “like us”.

Vote for conservatives where you can find them, but many times it’s only two liberals in competition. Goes back to at least Willkie v. Roosevelt.

The first thing the illegals will do once they have amnesty is to begin replacing old out of touch money grubbing politicians like Graham with their own. Dont the politicians of today study the history of yesterday to understand what will happen tomorrow? Nope. Apparently not.

Who can remember the boat people from Cuba and Vietnam? People have fled their own repressive country many times over the life of the United States, and they usually come here. Why? Good question. The reasons have changed and would be in better balance if we were the same country we once were.

Even though the GOP is closer to Hispanics on social issues, ie. abortion, homosexuality, religion, etc.

And I believe that even that is false.

What Mexican peasants and Indians mean by "religion" and what the Christian backbone of the Right mean are so totally different as to be a meaningless trope. The daughters of Mexican and Central American peasant immigrants (let's stop the use of "Hispanic", itself a meaningless term) get pregnant early and have lots of abortions. And our "modern" construction of "homosexuality", that stirs up so much nonsense among white Leftists, is meaningless in Mexican peasant culture.
