It’s insane to allow anyone to immigrate if they can’t support themselves. If they can’t they should be immediately deported. If they have family here then their families should be responsible for them or they should be deported.

Any American citizen that believes this government (either party) represents our interests is delusional. The drop in our standard of living can be directly attributed to illegal immigration; Obama’s Bolshevism is just the icing on the cake.

I must have missed the previous story where we eliminated the debt and have a lot of extra cash.

The unemployment rate will grow exponentially.
Sad for teens, seniors, and any other group needing a low level job.
It’s all part of the plan to destroy the American economy.
And the idiot voters still support these socialist bastards they have put in power.

You obviously do not understand how this works. If any of them have jobs, they will be counted as newly employed additions to the work force with jobs created by BO causing the rate to go down.
Those that don’t have jobs won’t have any effect on the rate because they were not counted with any group before because they, after all, “officially just got here”.

And if they’ve had three drunk driving offenses that just happen to have come while they were illegal rather than legal. This whole thing is insane—get them out of this country now!

I hate the GOP - what a worthless party. The GOP has become Enemy #2 in the nation.
They vote to gut the military, but they vote yes to Trillions in new handouts for illegals.

Latinos, should be a natural constituency for the party, Paul argued, but "Republicans have pushed them away with harsh rhetoric over immigration." ...he would create a bipartisan panel to determine how many visas should be granted for workers already in the United States and those who might follow... [and the buried lead] "Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers... [Rand Paul calls on conservatives to embrace immigration reform]
- ...by softening its edge on some volatile social issues and altering its image as the party always seemingly "eager to go to war... We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said. [Rand Paul: Time for GOP to soften war stance]

One day after announcing on his radio show that he is "truly considering" running in 2014 for the U.S. Senate seat now held by New Jersey's Frank Lautenberg, Rivera amped up his message today in a television interview and a column on the Fox News Latino website... a moderate Republican who is fiscally conservative but also supports gay marriage and Roe v. Wade... [Geraldo Rivera declares himself a 'moderate Republican' as he eyes U.S. Senate run]

Cheap labor has to be subsidized somehow. But not to worry, they’ll use the cuts to Social Security to fund it.

RE :”
The SenateJudiciary Committee voted Monday to allow illegal immigrants who get legal status to begin collecting tax-welfare payments, as the panel spent a fourth day working through amendments to the massive immigration bill and party-line splits began to emerge.
....
In one vote, Sen. Jeff Sessions, Alabama Republican, tried to prevent anyone but citizens and green-card holders from being able to claim the Earned Income Tax Credit, which uses the tax code to transfer money to the poor.
But Sen. Charles E. Schumer, New York Democrat, said that would deny the tax credit not only to legalized immigrants but also refugees, asylum-seekers and other legal workers.
And Sen. Mazie K. Hirono, Hawaii Democrat, said denying the tax credit to legalized immigrants would hurt their children, many of whom are U.S. citizens.” No word from Rubio on this. He did his dirty work.

Tax-welfare benefits?
But ‘conservative’ Rubio’s ‘conservative’ commercial to ‘conservatives’ said that this new immigration bill would NOT reward illegals with benefits.
Poor Marco, the old dogs — McCain, Schumer, Gramnesty — pulled the wool over his eyes, again. Just like they did with the ‘secure the border first’ canard.
[Feel like a used fool, Marco? You should. You got pwned.]
