““Look, it’s obvious I didn’t do this for political gain. This is not something that’s going to gain me any parades. People are frustrated, and I do understand it. What I hope they understand is that I studied this issue carefully for almost two years and I concluded that what we have in place right now is a disaster,” Rubio said.”

He’s started to talk DOWN to us like Hussein does.

It took him two years of studying this to determine that it’s really bad? So one can infer from his statement that his two years of studying the problem led him to a “solution” that would make it vastly worse.

What good is studying if come to the wrong conclusions?

He did it for the Lobbyist and all that he gets from them. Just your average, corrupt politician.

He did admit the problem is ENFORCEMENT. So, then, ENFORCE!

Replacing a law we don't enforce with another law we won't enforce is a non-starter.

The people, freed to deal with the problem, could do a far better job.

“I think conservatives have a right to be skeptical about this. The federal government under both Republicans and Democrats in the past has failed to enforce our immigration laws. That’s why we have 11 million people here that are illegally here,” Rubio said.

Still, Rubio said, keeping the status quo would be worse, describing it as “de facto amnesty.”

It is good that he has studied this for two years—during that time he must have discovered why immigration law since 1965 has created the “disaster”. Where is the evidence to suggest the illegals will pay taxes once they are given amnesty? Does Rubio not realize that the Dem party is also part of the equation and that the Dems see this as the windfall of all time. Does Rubio really believe the Dem’s will allow him to keep these illegals from voting and collecting the benefits of welfare in the US? Does he realize the magnitude of the disaster that will hit Americans if his legislative efforts do not produce the results he claims? Federal law never plays out exactly as predicted—that is a rule from the science of complexity.

That is irrelavant, as the new bill could easily be a bigger disaster.

Florida Sen. Marco Rubio is defending his participation [ . . . ], saying he knows it won’t win him any “parades” among conservatives, but it’s necessary.

But I just heard radio ads promoting Rubio's participation from the Conservative Right Wingers for Conservative Conservatism PAC.
