However, the public remains skeptical about the GOP’s immigration policy, which is an incoherent mix caused by the clashing preference by most voters for reduced immigration and the preference of GOP-leaning business leaders and donors for a greater inflow of foreign workers and immigrants. So far, GOP leaders have not aligned themselves with voters...........................Blame the RINOs for this.

Bottom line—Registered Republicans and the precious Independents are overwhelmingly against amnesty; so, naturally, the GOP-e is embracing it.

Yep. The RINO GOPE cannot even articulate a different stance than Obama on immigration.

I think amnesty is probably toxic for a huge portion of the Republicans, and probably more Democrats that you would believe — there's a reason the Uniparty-Elite haven't shoved this down our throats.

This Obama mega-amnesty for illegals will be his Emancipation Proclamation

Guess who said that ?

This is a non-issue for the social engineers/financial elites.

The illegals are like a time released toxin.

They are here. They are not going anywhere. More and more are coming. they are being distributed far and wide.

When the numbers are enough, they will be activated to do the damage they've been brought in to do. (vote away property rights, vote away 2nd Amendment, etc.)

Barring some "radical" dark horse who starts a landslide movement to eject them all from the country--the damage is done. It's now a waiting game.

Lately, I’ve wondered why immigration is such a big deal at this point - there are laws on the books that when effectively applied address most issues - immigration policy isn’t broken, its simply not carried out as written into law.

As suppose it’s just politics at play. Two+ more years is a long time - although if the Senate goes Republican later this year - let the entertainment begin.

“Even incumbent Tennessee Sen. Lamar Alexander is trying to win his tough primary with a TV-ad that declared him an opponent of amnesty.”

Alexander is claiming he was fighting amnesty when he voted for amnesty.

“When I use a word,” Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, “it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less.”

Let’s hope this lying, limp-wristed, modern day Humpty Dumpty goes down in defeat against Joe Carr tonight.

I think most Americans feel the same way I do. Let’s worry about AMERICAN KIDS before we start blowing our money on other people’s kids from Central America. That’s just flat goofy! Send them home to their parents. Let the governments in Central America deal with it. It’s not our problem. Rimshot Joe Biden claims that they are his kids, the governments need to go after him for child support.

Taking a stand against Illegal Immigration would have been a game winner in 2006, 2008, 2010, and 2012. But, the GOPe chose to ignore the issue becaus it would have given the GOP and unfair advantage over the Democrats...and that just wouildn’t be cricket.

My understanding is that any executive order can be reversed by the next executive. While a lot of illegals will stay deportation of some can be accelerated not to mention the ease of shutting down the border afterwards!!

Junk poll. It’s telephone and all adults, not Likely Voters. It included Hispanics. This means that Likely Voters are really against it.

I seriously question that 11 million number. Last 'amnesty' discussion everyone was batting around 22-40 million. This time 11 million.

I don't believe any of them. The border's been wide open for 50 years and neither party has done a single thing about it and these border-jumpers have been crossing as fast as they could.

It's a LOT closer to the 40 million than the 11 million.

If the MSM would show what is really going on at the border and across the country, the opposition numbers would be much higher.

Wait until schools start back and classes are filled with these kids who don’t speak a word of English.

What would the polls say if you add in another 11,000,000 Mexicans?
