Something has to be done to catalyze resistance and force Boehner yo ve kn our side, but for the life of me I don’t know what it is.

Later this spring or early summer you will see the vote that will go down in history as the death knell for the Republican party - yes it is a death wish. They will not garner one single additional hispanic vote because of this amnesty, but they sure will be forced to accept the suicide pill they helped create.

Either a new party springs up to save the 2014 election or America is done, over, finished.

Through sheer cowardice, our little Republican Party, which I have somewhat faithfully supported since 1970, will be as responsible for the collapse of America as all enemies, foreign and domestic.

Not necessarily globalists.

There are ways to dilute it, although I'm not sure if we're gonna be able to do enough to get the AFL-CIO or SEIU to break away.

Like I wrote in my earlier post, making sure that the DV is killed is extremely important.

It makes the Congressional Black Caucus either backtrack completely, or exposes its members as completely lack in principles.

Without the CBC supporting this, I think the bill is effectively dead.

Does the GOP really think it will gain more than a dozen extra Hispanic votes with this sellout? And I don’t mean 12 percent either. This party is its own worst enemy and has been for years now.

You think GOP will gain 12 votes?

That’s an awfully high estimate.

Mexifornia, OK.

Get ready for Mexitexas, ‘cause it’s moving in and the highlight is on the first nation listed - most favored. Don’t kid yourself.

These guys are exerting a lot of power and not representing the rule of law, much less, the Constitution.

Don’t they have other things to do?

Does the Boston bombing terrorist attack which happened only 46 days ago mean anything to these spineless bustards?


When it comes to these Senators, they have a short term memory..or they choose not to give a damn

I am praying very hard that it will be God’s will that this awful bill crash and burn in the House.

Pray with me. Several times a day. Something simple like, “Lord, if it be your will, let the immigration bill die in the House.” How hard is that?

Yep, exactly what will happen. It is what happened last time the politicians gave amnesty and didn’t enforce laws as they promised to do. The politicians all know this, that is why they did not demand a secure border before even considering this amnesty. They want to make sure the replacements can get here.

Here's the report on the GOP TRAITORS in the the Senate Judiciary Committee
Click on them and let them know what you think.

In short, the GOP is full of VILE members who'll sell us out in a heartbeat!

Here are the ones that I know about.
What do we do when our side is full of TRAITORS?
I submit the following for proof.

Check out this link, "Senate Republicans Willfully and Knowingly Lie to Their Constituents (vote to fund Obamacare)".And let's not forget Sen. John McCain, one of Conservatives worst enemies, saying 'I don't understand' GOP filibuster on guns.
Thanks to Cyropaedia for this:

Those are the people in the leadership seats, who were voted into those positions.
But ... I agree with your statement.

And Mark Levin told us what a good guy Hatch is!

How stupid are the Republicans? Why the hell are they giving Obama a political victory?

If Boehner does not kill amnesty he’s through.
