I think like you. The only thing that bother me is his alliances with Russia or Venezuela, true enemies of the US.

What makes Republicans(rinos in the Senate) enter into a deal with dems that will permanently make them an underclass in votes,tank the economy,increase unemployment, decrease wages, and go against the wishes of their electorate? Just to name a few of the many problems with the amnesty bill. Is there any other answer other than political corruption, our elected reps taking money or other goodies?

I agree that it is most likely corruption. Our political/corporate elites have lost touch with the rest of us. They are post-American when it comes to their world view. And there appears to be no political price to pay.

The federal government controls 25% of our GDP and state, county, and local government another 20% or so. Crony capitalism has become predominant. There is a symbiotic relationship between the government and the corporate world--similar to what Ike warned us about re the military industrial complex.

Government can make or break an industry thru regulations and laws. In turn, corporations can influence those regulations and laws via political contributions. And the entrenched government bureaucracy thru public unions can make or break their political masters who are transient. It is no coincidence that the DC metro area is the richest in the nation and virtually unaffected by recessions and economic downturns.

In addition to money, the attraction to power and control motivates many of these politicians who think that the people work for them and not the other way around. Many probably detest the American public whom they view as just pawns and rubes who can be easily fooled and led. Until we start holding them accountable, I see little that will change their behavior. Obamacare was shoved down our throats and now they are using the same model for amnesty. You won't know what is in the bill until it is passed.

Graham says if/when they pass this bill, they will NEVER need to address 'illegal immigration' again.

I call BS. deja vu.

Grahamesty is sounding exactly like Ted Swimmer in 1986.

1986: Amnesty In the campaign for the 1986 amnesty law, Kennedy predicted that the law would grant citizenship to no more than 1.3 million people. “We will secure the borders henceforth. We will never again bring forward another amnesty bill like this,” he said.

I suppose the open border crowd would respond by saying "Well this bill is not like that one." IT IS WORSE AND WILL GUARANTEE AZTLAN SUCESS.

I am not defending Snowden. He deserves to be prosecuted, but I am disturbed by his disclosures.

Personally I really liked Paula Deen and her show until I learned that she campaigned for the Dear leader and the big mooch. After that I couldn't care less about her fate.

Truth is however,she played it all wrong.

She employed the Trent Lott defense of cry babying/multiple apologies which just empower all the wrong commies. She basically appealed to the DBM to save her grits(with plenty of butter).

The result? The drivebys smelled blood in the water and they ate her in one quick bite.

If she had gone on the offensive and kicked some ass for wrongly being portrayed as a racist she would still be on the air.

The hard left responds to weakness as do vampires and sharks which they are closely related to.

Like the Duke said, “Never apologize, it’s a sign of weakness.”

Thanks very much. I'm ready to start holding them accountable.

Gotcha,I think we also need to remember that this is a 29 year old high school drop-out. Chances that he does everything right are small.

I think these nitwits really believe that Mexican-Americans will start voting for them if they just GIVE them something.

How do Repubs run against this?

It is amazing how they re-use the same ole song-and-dance acts, speeches, teary-eyed stories, shell games.

They are using the same rhetoric from the Bush2 era and the 3 attempts to pass comprehensive immigration then.

Secure the border, learn English, pay a fine, go to the end of the line, yada yada yada.

The only things that change are the new regulations buried deep within the document and/or its amendments.

I don't think people understand that the Corker-Hoeven "amendment" is 1190 pages long.

If you haven't read the Corker-Hoeven amendment to the Senate immigration bill, you aren't alone. Congress hasn't read it either. The Gang of Eight and the cosponsors of Corker-Hoeven spent the last couple of days boasting about the amendment, and making promises about what it would do, then Majority Leader Reid sent the Senate home with a 1,000-plus-page reading assignment for the weekend. The text of the amendment wasn't released until Friday afternoon. The Senate votes on Monday. Additional handwritten changes to the amendment have yet to be distributed to every Senator.

This is Senator Schumer's version of "transparency."

I wonder how long it took to write this "amendment." I think we are being played for suckers. Both parties had this drafted and held it for the opportune time to give political cover for more Reps to vote for the bill. First, they had to go thru the contrived theatrics of condemning the bill because it did not do enough for border security and the voila, at the last minute, they come with a "fix" to make the bill sound.
