Assuming there are 30 million illegals in America, that's enough to create some 50 congressional districts and they don't even need to vote to do it. If they do vote, you can pretty much count on those districts being almost exclusively democrat. As it is we don't know how many districts exist almost wholly due to the presence of illegals.

The costs of administering a single district must run into the millions. How much pork can a district seek? How many earmarks? What will all those new democrat congressmen vote for?

If you think Obamacare is bad, you haven't seen squat. Wait till the day all those democrats start dictating how many cars a family can have, what job you can have, or where you can live. Wait till they dictate that all paychecks come from government and you get a small cut of what is left over.

Illegals are nothing but government growth hormone and amnesty today is nothing short of treason.

The first problem with the article is calling Charles Krauthammer a conservative.

Krauthammer can only be percieved a conservative by a someone like Obama with a Marxist worldview.

Just another example of Republicans catering to illegals for their votes (legal or not). We have become a government that appeases the non citizens. Welcome to Amerika.

Hispanics dont vote for immigration they vote for free stuff just like all the other moochers in the 47% and the females that are singularly focused on others paying to maintain their vagina.

Mark Levin’s position on amnesty is sound as it always has been but the GOP and Romney had NO strategy to court Hispanic votes, as challenging as that would be this time around. And Romney is certainly not able to convert many voters to R.

That was an fatal mistake.

For years now the Dems on the Dem channel been showing the electoral map and how it soon will not be possible to win the WH at all without Hispanic voters, cheering it on.

The GOP needs to try to understand these people and find things they want that Dems can’t offer them that they can, at least to fracture the group. Yes I know that is difficult. And at least try to get some of them to not vote.

The economy completely tanking under O would give an huge opening.

Immigration isn’t the problem. The problem is that you don’t even speak to hispanics. Instead, you throw out some richie rich white guy from MA and expect to win. When I say “richie rich” I’m not talking about the money but the attitude that comes with it.

“And all the rest of the Republicans who are falling into the race pandering and race politics stuff and sound stupid, and look stupid, and are embarrassing themselves. And are going to destroy the Republican party or what’s left of it.”

To0 late Mark. The GOP is dead. In it’s place is a new party, still called the GOP, which is modelled after the Democrats.

Remember the comment about not having to worry about the poor because we have a safety net.

The election was the result of one thing, freebies and Romney didn’t offer enough to these people.

Let’s see, over 80% currently vote for Democrats. Is Krauthammer under the delusion that the additional 30 million won’t do the same and will switch to Republicans?

Limbaugh nailed this today - finally.

Hispanics are no different than the other democrat constituents - they don't care about immigration or amnesty, they want the taxpayer to fund their stuff.

That may seem belittling but its far less insulting than accusing them of caring only about amnesty for illegals.

Of course the democrat party wants amnesty, it means more clients, more votes.

And isn't it just like the GOPe to decide that the best strategy is to give the democrat party exactly what they want.

You don’t get it. Old time illegals were mainly from Europe and Spain and then Russia and Asia. Hispanics, espcially from South America and Mexico are a different breed. They come here from a culture expecting to be ruled by a leader, and given government goodies. They are taught Western culture is for evil white destroyers. Even middle class Hispanics born here like the idea of “free” shit. Get it?

It’s a huge divide that cannot be mended unless Republicans start standing for big government.
Then whats the point. The stupid party should have been fighting these bastard left wingers on all this amnesty in the first place before it changed our American western society for good.

TOO LATE!

Hispanics won’t vote GOP unless they’re given freebies or have candidates that speak Spanish (GWB).

If you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything. Hispanics are Democrats for the same reason all other Democrats are Democrats - it’s the freebies, Charlie. When “the man” runs out of all that money they think he has,the riots will start. - Obama has done more to divide this country through his hatred and anger, while insisting rather split personalityish that he’s the Great Unifier, than any President.

Exactly and apparently some here don’t even get it.
