It's painfully obvious to anyone who's studied the 1986 amnesty what's going on here. There's a media-pleasing song and dance about policing the border and improving enforcement, which gets the Sunday talk shows swooning at the hip, supposedly bipartisan Gang of Eight and their magical plan to secure America. In the meantime, a behind-the-scenes cabal of leftists and open-borders diversity lobbyists, hand in hand with the Chamber of Commerce and the multinational corporation big business cheap labor lobby, and the neocon globalists who've infiltrated the Republican Party Establishment as pretend "conservatives", all pool their vast financial resources to undermine any sensible enforcement or border monitoring, while promoting the H1B visa and other measures to import the rest of the world at starvation wages and drive even more Americans out of jobs and decent incomes. This treasonous cabal is represented in the Senate by the Gang of Eight, especially by Robert Menendez, Chuck Schumer, John McCain and Michael Bennet, who've managed to play Rubio and Graham in particular like a cheap after-market fiddle.
To these idiots, in thrall with cheap labor and open borders in their ruling elite bubble, there's little consideration about the catastrophe this bill would unleash on the American people and nation as a whole. So what if the Constitution is upended, or the rule of law is subverted? So what if Americans, already driven to mass destitution, poverty and crushing debt by 5 years of Obama's mismanagement, see their wages pushed down even lower and their jobs disappear? So what if the H1-B visa allows even more trumped-up false degree holders from India and Pakistan to be imported into the tech industry and shoved into ten-person slum-style apartments, forcing even more indebted Americans out of work and gutting our own tech industry even further? For Rubio, Grahamnesty and the Gang of Eight, it's a "price worth paying" for the cheap labor.
These jerks are even willing to commit treason and endanger American security for the cheap workers. It's becoming evident that the Tsarnaev brothers were just the tip of the iceberg of a terrorist sleeper cell, among probably thousands already in the USA waiting to be activated for their next attack. Hardly a surprise given that documents in Afghanistan showed al-Qaida doing just that, using our lax immigration enforcement to smuggle in even more terrorist sleeper cells and infiltrate them throughout the country. The Tsarnaev brothers were legal immigrants! But to the Gang of Eight, that's not a problem. To them, tens of thousands of Americans killed and maimed by al-Qaida terrorist sleeper cells is a bargain in return for the dirt-cheap labor and crumbling US standard of living.
It's critical to focus our political activism to put smothering pressure on these RINO traitors, to primary them and to send a message. I even wonder if the moment of mass demonstrations is near considering how much these well-placed crooks continue to ignore the vast majority of Americans, struggling in this economic mess, to put the brakes on further wage-depressing immigration and simply enforce the laws already on the books, many of them from the 1986 bill. Primary opponents should start speaking up now, write letters to the editor, and we need to call our Senators and House Reps every day, light up their switchboards and mail and email, with insistent and angry reminders that we will not accept this treason. Like in 2006 and 2007, but even more forceful now.
It's smart politics as well as principle. I have plenty of otherwise apolitical friends who've become active and hopping mad at Congress on the immigration betrayal above anything else. Even many Dems who disagree with us on most issues, but will go to the polls to vote for a patriotic conservative who strongly opposes amnesty and the H1B visa. (For example the pro-amnesty and pro-H1B position of Amy Klobuchar in Minnesota has caused her popularity to crumble even among Dems and Independents.) This one issue trumps everything else for hundreds of millions of voters, since it's tied in so directly with the miserable economy under Obama, with respect for our laws and the security of our nation in general. The path to conservative victory in 2014 starts with taking a strong stand against the immigration treason as being pushed by Marco Rubio, Lindsey Graham, John McCain and their fellow criminals against our nation. Anyone from their states have ideas on primary opponents that the grass roots can start mobilizing for?
Any so called republican who trusts Chuckie Schumer on anything is hopeless.
The bill is a joke and I can’t believe Rubio and Flake are trying to sell something so obviously bad.
We need to expose it in committee.
It will fall apart mark my words.
Rubio is a good, honest man. I am glad he is a Republican and, generally, a conservative. However... He needs a whole lot more seasoning. He obviously fails to understand just how dishonest and sneaky the rats are. And he talks a little too fast, a little too confidently.
No, he is most definitely not ready for prime time. Not yet, and not by a long shot.
What kind of judgment do you have to possess to trust a complete scumbag like Schumer even a little bit?
I don’t know that Rubio is deserving of all that.
He got out foxed by an old hand. Schumer mat be a communist numbskull, but he’s been in DC a long time and knows how to make mincemeat of a noob like Rubio.
Rubio sees immigration reform as a political issue rather than a constitutional and sovereignty issue.
He is not ready for prime time.
Immigration policy should first, foremost, and always serve the interests of citizens.
Anybody who can so easily be made a fool of by Chuck Schumer, John McCain and Lindsey Graham is not fit to be President and probably never will be. It was almost embarrassing to listen to him babble on Levin and Rush’s program last week. I think Rush and Mark felt sorry for him.
My goodness, you sound like one of those ‘Bitter Enders’ Grover Norquist warned us about...one of those loathsome
‘restrictionists, who merely think of themselves as conservatives’!
Prepare to be ‘marginalized’!!!! Grover need his amnesty, so get over yourself.
Grover vs. ‘the Bitter Enders’(Grover trying to give Rubio political cover)
[snip] Grover Norquist is known as an anti-tax crusader, but in the coming weeks he will be just as much a pro-immigration crusader, combatting what he calls the “bitter enders” who oppose comprehensive immigration reform. Norquist says that he’s trying to counteract the effect of “a handful of radio talk-show hosts who talk loudly.” “The bitter-enders who are still responding to radio talk-show hosts from eight years ago haven’t noticed that the world has shifted from underneath them,” he says. “The people who need cover are the guys who are still voting like they were Pat Buchanan.”

[snip]”In an unlikely pairing, renowned anti-tax activist Grover Norquist stood alongside AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka, the leader of the nation’s largest labor coalition. Senators from both parties yukked it up with jokes throughout the hour-long affair.
After the conference ended, Norquist predicted the Gang of Eight would succeed, arguing that opponents like Sessions and Vitter, who sunk the last immigration bill in 2007, have been marginalized.
Restrictionists, Norquist said, are people who merely “think of themselves as conservatives.”
“If you’re a Republican, you look at the business community wants it, the religious community wants it,” he told reporters. “Who is the opposition? Who in the modern Reagan Republican Party is a no?”

As I have Posted before, we have a Senate, the Deliberate Body (LOL), working on two important issues.
#1 - Turning Law Breaking Illegal Invaders into Democrat Voting Legal Citizens. I would call it Rewarding Illegal behavior.
#2 - Making Law Abiding Gun Owners overnight Felons if they refuse to comply with Tyrants attempting to steal their God Given Rights as outlined in the Bill of Rights and the Constitution. I call that Treason.
