But that same strategy didnt stop the Senate tax bill and updated VAWA (with added protections for gays and illegals) Senate bills from getting to Obamas desk (remember they killed plan B?). .
Bohner couldnt get a GOP bill passed in house at all so he just put up the Senate bills for a vote and they passed with Pelosi votes.
This is a partticularly self distructive way to do business and just strenthens Obama.
I’ll take “OR ELSE” for THE AMERICAN way of life.
:”Senator Graham now returns with more advice, stating that if we dont pass immigration reform the Republican Party will continue in a demographic death spiral. According to Graham during a Sunday appearance on Meet the Press: “If we dont pass immigration reform, if we dont get it off the table in a reasonable, practical way, it doesnt matter who you run in 2016. .He wants us to believe that its in the Republicans best interest to grant amnesty to 11 million (low estimate) illegal aliens because they will then magically become republicans and vote for the GOP in upcoming elections”
Lindsey Graham gives more sage advice( tavernkeepers.com ^ | 6/17/13 | John)
Call the bluff!
Take Mmehhicco’s own law—put our label on it—then pass it as US law for the house.
I'm pretty confident of that. True constitutional conservative principles only appeal, but appeal strongly, to those who aspire to get ahead. With more low-income hispanics competing with low-income blacks and whites, nobody sees much of an opportunity to get ahead in life. Thus, they need the federal gravy train to keep on rolling.
And who powers that train? An elite globalist minority, through contracts, appointments, and connections.
Or else what? Put your threats to the American people on the table or STFU!
...or else, what? Our nation will be invaded by third worlders yearning to cash in on Uncle Sugar? Already done happened. What are we supposed to be fearful of if this bill is killed in place, as it should be? The rage of the political class in DC? LOL.
...or else ace pilot mclame will crash an F-4 into them.
Good piece of humor!
BUMP
” is Ryan brilliant or what?
He’s a whore, in cahoots with his wife(a former, big time corporate lobbyist.) Ryan sold us out on amnesty to corporate interests, and stands to get rich off his treachery!
If you don’t do your homework on these so-called “conservative stare”, don’t be surprised when they turn on you.
” conservative stars”
But they are well on the way to passing their own "comprehensive" bill (no citizenship yet, but as you know, strange things happen in conference). The bill will be created in the Judiciary Committee unless somebody stops it, and I think that would be difficult.
I called my congessman to tell him not to vote for a path-to-citizenship OR ELSE I will work to primary him next year.
Or else WHAT? McCain can’t lift his arms and Graham probably fights like a girl.
So if I was in the House I’d say, “you and what army”.
Punks.
The issue is not what WE are afraid of. Congesscritters are afraid of being called racists.
Calvin Coolidge: "[The political mind] is a strange mixture of vanity and timidity, of an obsequious attitude at one time and a delusion of grandeur at another time. The political mind is the product of men in public life who have been twice spoiled. They have been spoiled with praise and they have been spoiled with abuse."
I like Cal, but this time amnesty will destroy the country, and the politicians better think twice before pulling the trigger.
Coolidge calls them (IOW) cowardly blowhards. But these contemporary cowards are about to descend to a betrayal that the cowards of the 1920a would not consider.

Exactly.
The nice thing about that argument is that you can tell them that giving illegals citizenship after a few years of signing up is the same as them saying that illegals are the same same as you(or me.)
Same rights same benefits as us, even more because we are white and they get pushed to the front of line for being non-white.
Affirmative action and path means that they are seen by the laws as better than us. .
Business leaders want to see broad immigration reform this year, and they pledged on Thursday to put serious money behind that effort.
Carlos Gutierrez, a former commerce secretary under President George W. Bush, said that he's continuing to grow a Republican super PAC, which was first announced in November, designed to urge members of Congress to support immigration reform.
"We're going to do something we haven't done in the past," he said at a news conference. "We're going to put money behind the problem."
..."I'm not worried about whether we can get the votes in the House," he said, "if we can get agreement" between business, labor, and faith-based organizations.
"Once we get that together," he added, "we'll get the votes."
