I sure hope so. Americans could really use a “poisoned well” up on Capitol Hill right now.

Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), a senior Democrat deeply involved in both the immigration and gun issues. “There are many in the conservative movement who want to see an immigration bill done. There are very few in the conservative movement who want to see a gun bill done. That’s, I think, one of the differences.”

In a similar vein, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) suggested this week that immigration reform made more political sense for Republicans than any restrictions on guns.

“The Hispanic community voted 70 percent for the Democrats,” Pelosi told reporters, referencing last year’s election. “That opens the space in people’s minds on the Republican side that perhaps immigration reform was an issue whose time had come.”

Rubio. He’s so brilliant taking political advice form such heavyweights.

Or perhaps our recent misadventures with two wild-and-crazy guys from Chechnya “poisoned the well” on immigration.

“Rubio. He’s so brilliant taking political advice form such heavyweights.”

Whoa...how did we all miss this?

Marco Rubio Dismisses Tea Party Caucus As A ‘Little Club’ Run By Washington Politicians
http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2011/02/07/142708/rubio-tea-party-caucus/

Freeper, Jabba the Nutt, pointed this out a bit ago. This should have been the first hint that the tea party was being hijacked/used.

Let’s just call it what it is.

Rubio is a manchurian candidate. It was a set up from the beginning to use the tea party to fundraise and get him in office. He was chosen a LONG time ago to push amnesty, to fool conservatives.

Think about this. Rubio hires Grover Norquist’s friend & partner in destroying every immigration enforcement mechanism for 3 decades, Cesar Conda as his chief of staff when he’s a lowly state senator before he was elected to the US Senate....now how much do you think a big GOP power operator like Conda works for? Rubio was handpicked.

Here’s a snip of the article...Rubio is one fast talking lawyer, this is full of lies just like his amnesty excuses.

[snip]Rubio leveled even harsher words at the caucus, dismissing it as a “little club[]” run by politicians that could cause the real movement “to lose its energy”:

HOST: When Michele Bachmann began to create this Tea Party Caucus, I got this really bad taste in my mouth. … You and I see eye-to-eye on this, right? It’s a grassroots movement, right? [...]

RUBIO: Now, specifically about the Tea Party Caucus, the concern that I’ve expressed, is that what I think gives the tea party its strength and its legitimacy in the American political process is that it’s a grassroots movement of everyday Americans. … My fear has always been that if you start creating these little clubs or organizations in Washington run by politicians, the movement starts to lose its energy. Basically, the media will jump on that and start paying attention to that instead of the grass roots movement which is really what has given the tea party its voice. … I don’t want us to anything that kind of changes its grassroots nature. [snip]

LOL...he and his handlers hijack the tea party and he has the NERVE to say he’s afraid it might be use by ‘politicians’....BUT it’s OKAY if it’s highjacked by K st. lobbyists?????

WHO IS CESAR CONDA??

“There are many in the conservative movement who want to see an immigration bill done. There are very few in the conservative movement who want to see a gun bill done."

Reichsfuhrer Schumer knows that once the 'RATS have 30 million new voters, gun confiscation will be a no brainer.

Amen to that.

The RINOs on the gang of eight seem to think immigration reform will make us safer when in fact it'll just legalize terrorists.

Is Chucky on meds/drugs or getting his info from the voices in his head? Millions upon millions of unemployed American citizens and he comes up with this crap!

I just emailed Rubio. Contact your Senators. No more muzzie immigration. Investigate who or what country is building all the d@mn mosques. Investigate Obama’s connection w/muslim brotherhood. No road to amnesty for illegals. Do it.

I told him most Americans no longer trust Congress. This is very dangerous in what is supposed to be a republic. When too many people become too disgusted with rules imposed on them by others who have no connection to their society, they become less attached and devoted to both their neutered State government and the oppressive national government. This is a road map to dissolution of the Union.

Really? I’ve always found calling your friendly opponent a lying evil person who wants children to die an effective tactic when negotiating.

Chucky is a lying opportunist and always has been and I toned that down as to what I really think of him.

IMO the video of Obama’s little Rose Garden speech was the first time we’ve really seen him angry and surprised that he didn’t get his way.

Let’s hope it did poison the well, that the voice of the American people means something in Congress again, that the seemingly “new normal” procedure of simply announcing that the newest thousand-page bill is ready for voting on NOW is a fad that has outlived its usefulness, and that Obama will continue to be thwarted in his efforts to destroy this country.

I don’t suppose a couple of immigrants blowing people up at the Boston Marathon matters much, no?

Well, er, uh .......no! They've already poisoned the well with the lie that there are only 11-12 million of them people here. They've poisoned it in that they won't deport their asses or that they won't keep more of them from coming in. They've poisoned it by giving these effers drivers licenses. They've poisoned it by giving them welfare......by not prosecuting their rapes, robberies and murders.....all of it - every frigging bit of it.

And lastly, they've poisoned it with the allowance of trumped up ‘refugee’ immigrant entries like these two terrorist muslims that blew up the Boston Marathon.....by not admitting they're terrorists part of a cell, one of dozens in this country. That's what's poisoned the well, you bunch of selfish, power-hungry, lazy-assed, greedy politicians. That's what. Go choke on your immigration bill. That includes you too, Rubio.

Rubio is a latino willing to SAY he’s a conservative. That’s what passes for vetting.

He has never shown any visible sign of loyalty or character, just what people hope he’ll be.

Just like the dem voters do with their leader.
