Stopping the Gang of 8 will hurt the GOP in 2014...seriously?

Posted on 06/11/2013 12:42:28 AM PDT by eekitsagreek

So let's assume that this stupid amnesty bill will pass the Senate and send it to the House. I think we all know that this bill is designed to look so awful that the GOP House will vote against it and thus make the GOP look like it is anti-Hispanic and thus create trouble in 2014, at least that is what the Dems hope will happen (kinda like the gun grab thing that flopped on them).

Are you telling me that with all the scandals now erupting around Obama, any [likely] future scandal still to come, not to mention the effects Obamacare will have later this year and especially next year on our economy and employment situation, that most voters will find the act of of the GOP stopping amnesty to be the most outrageous? Do Dems really believe this one issue will trump ALL to their benefit? They really believe that this is their ticket to keeping the Senate and retaking the House?

Seriously?

If the Republican Party wants to survive they must defeat these Gangs of Eight. That means shutting up Rubio and shutting down Boehner. They don’t do this they’re done.

Boehner MUST GO! TODAY. BY NOON. He is completely ineffectual in opposing the Democrats. Where the hell is he with all these Obama scandals. The biggest scandals in history and where the hell is Boehner? He’s focused on getting amnesty passed. This guy is a frickin tool.

But if the Republicans were in the White House and Senate, don’t you think Nancy Pelosi would be also quiet about the scandals?

Oh.
Nevermind

Stopping the Gang of 8 ... is one of the best things the Conservatives could do to "grow the voter rolls".
Everone I speak to, is SOOOOOOOO sick of the weak losers that have infiltrated the GOP.
They want representatives who understand principals and who have standards.
"COMPROMISE" is a DIRTY WORD !
Take a good long look at where "COMPROMISE" and the "Establishment Republicans" ALWAYS take us.

The GOPe likes their cheap labor and cheap tarts. The Bushies have been pro-Amnesty forever and a day. Both parties are one party of a-hats.

Well if it a choice between damaging the Republican Party or damaging the REPUBLIC it is a no brainer.

Let the Gang of 8 and the Republican Party rot.

Long Live the Republic.

Big deal, Hispanics won't vote Republican anyway. Giving them amnesty insures more D votes - simple math.

Freedom and America are done until Red States secede, or Amnesty will turn them Blue..

The "Hispanic vote" story has been debunked over and over.

For Romney to have been elected, he would have needed to increase his share of the "Hispanic vote" from 30% to greater than 75%. There are simply not enough "Hispanics" to swing an election to the GOP unless the GOP becomes even friendlier to the FSA than the Democrats, which seems unlikely (and pointless).

In the large white majority, however, there are TONS of votes up for grabs, and the GOP only needs 2-3% more to become a consistent winner. Of course, this means screwing over the GOPe specifically, and the ruling class in general, but, you can't make an omlet without breaking eggs.

Are you kidding? Tammy Faye Boehner and his merry band of RINOs are chomping at the bit to pass amnesty. He just announce that by years end he expects to pass it. I would not doubt it. They all want to disappear this problem so they don’t have to do something hard like enforce immigration law.
