According to Sen. John McCain, a member of the Senate’s Gang of Eight, criminals will not be legalized under the proposed bipartisan immigration bill.

A laundry list of crimes that would normally put a citizen in prison for years.
Something about Equal Protection Under the Law, Mr. Rubio?
Oh that's right. In your country, laws are negotiable.
Oh pulleezze....the only person who is considered to be a bigger liar, buffoon, and general idiot in DC than the Obamadork is McQueeg.
Shove it McQueeg, deep and often, up your smelly Obama.
Maybe we could have a single soundbite acronym for them...like say, the Treason Triangle.
Back when it was topical, we called them the Three Amigos, but that movie is 27 years gone now...and it was a different group. But still featured McQueeg and Lindsey Light in the Loafers.
It's amazing both of them are still there.

IF the law is passed, it should immediately be taken to court as a violation of the 14th amendment rights of ANYONE who has been charged with any of the law violations noted here.
I don't know where Congress gets the right to statutorially exempt an entire class of people from a law as an ex post facto act. It seems to be a violation of Equal Protection on its face.
The ACLJ, Judicial Watch and others should have a field day.
” IF the law is passed, it should immediately be taken to court as a violation of the 14th amendment rights of ANYONE who has been charged with any of the law violations noted here. “
Yes.
Didn’t the Ninth Circus, within the past year or so, rule that a convicted kidnapper could not be deported automatically out of hand, upon the completion of his sentence?
