>> If I had sent him money, I’d want it back about now. Pathetic. <<

I had qualms about this guy ever since all the freepers who hopped aboard the Mel Martinez express the moment he announced, SWORE they knew him PERSONALLY and could vouch that he's a staunch hardcore Reagan Republican who "100% opposes illegal immigration"...

...said the exact same thing 6 years later when Marco Rubio announced his candidacy.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice...

Did anyone read the full article? The excerpt that was posted ends right before the paragraphs that point out that Rubio's bill would not create a path to citizenship, which is why amnesty supporters are opposed to it. Just because it has DREAM in the name, and such term was by pro-amnesty groups a few years ago, doesn't mean that his bill would provide amnesty.

It seems like Rubio's bill would give college-aged illegal aliens brought here as kids and educated in U.S. schools the equivalent of student visas, such as are handed out annually to thousands of foreigners who apply to U.S. universities. Such visas do not confer U.S. citizenship, and do not even set up a pathway to citizenship. Watch how the amnesty pushers are all aghast at Rubio's "anti-immigrant" and "discriminatory" bill; while the devil's in the details, and I would like to see the final text before endorsing it, the fact that the open-borders and backdoor-amnesty crowds oppose the bill is a positive sign. Opposing anything with the word "dream" in it is just plain stupid.
