The dramatic shift in the Republican Party on immigration continued Tuesday, as Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), a conservative tea party icon and possible 2016 presidential contender, endorsed an overhaul of the nation’s immigration laws that would allow the nation’s estimated 11 million illegal immigrants to obtain legalized status. “Immigration will not occur until conservative Republicans, like myself, become part of the solution. That’s why I’m here today: to begin that conversation and become part of the solution,” he said in a breakfast speech Tuesday morning before the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce in Washington.

All I can say on that, is this.
Orwell was right. Reduce the number of words, piece by piece until the ones left are meaningless.
They did.
glad you’re alright pal.
I. now in ST Augustine St Johns county
I love it here and see this and how we voted here, LOL

OK I will and if I forget then please remind me as I have to go now, misses shouting for me, [sigh] probably take trash out LOL
I have Animal farm on netflix and I will be watching it with the kids later this week.
Orwell was most certainly right ., you know it;s no surrise that the commies were going to do certain things.
One only had to read the commie rules of 1963 or Alinsky, or Cloward and Piven
Hell all what they wanted to do was there for all to see
got to go now but good talking to you
But they get to stay here...and take jobs from Americans...and suck up welfare...
Should we hold our breath for the Mexican Government's reciprocation?
can anyone tell me why
What is "because we have a corrupt media who only puts our side down"?
Words....just words.
The actual intent is to ease the illegality of what these people have done, and to make it easier for them to remain here under some sort of official government sanction.
What the American people want, is enforcement. We want to see widescale deportations, an end to gov't freebies for these lawbreakers, and immediate arrest and deportation upon contact with law enforcement. That is what the majority of the American people have been saying for decades.
The people aren't the least bit interested in what the politicians, the big money enablers, and the illegals want. We want the invasion to cease, which is the one thing Washington will not address. Cheap labor and votes are all that matter to them.
I'd better stop. I've got blood squirting from my eyes.
You and me both pal’O mine. You and me both....
There isn’t a simple solution. Iam a Texan, lifelong, and Ihave seen the illegal problem go from what was an asset for Texasin some areas to a really bad problem.
If they are here illegally, they aren’t supposed to vote. That is one of the things that needs fixing.
Within 5 posts they are guaranteed to take a long held conservative ideal and deride it as ‘purist’.
See my tagline....
Yup. Saw that. And I haZ a big happy on that one. She was a GOP shill to the core.
American contractors like myself, thank you for your efforts. The illegals have hurt us badly over the last 15 to 20 years. More than I can even begin to express on this forum.
To fix this problem, we (not sure I can do much good, other than communication on this side of the pond, but I try my hardest) need go in head-first, strong and hard to eradicate it (not much hope that will ever happen, but hope is still there)...
Of course they are bending over and they want us to bend over with them. They are bending over for the super elite and Wall St and cheap labor, and those who are never affected by illegals taking over America.
Corporatists are not now and never have been conservatives. The GOP elite are politicians looking for voters first, while many are corporatists looking for ways to profit while screwing the country. They did it by giving away our jobs to China and bailing out Wall St with our tax money as a reward for their blatant incompetence and campaign donations. Their ilk are now looking for ways to declare our country broke by giving it to illegals.
Mark my words. These are left wing goals. The republicans shouldn't even have them on the table. They shouldn't even be discussing them. These issues are irrelevant to the more important needs in this country.
There's no reason to give either of these issues any attention at all. Move on.
