Good news: Paul Ryan going to try to sell immigration reform to wary House Republicans

There actually is a smidgen of good news. He’s said repeatedly over the last few days that the House won’t take up the Gang of Eight bill, something we now kinda sorta know to be true. He’s not selling Rubio’s plan, he’ll be selling something that might demand real evidence of improved border security before proceeding to legalization. Although, if a bill like that was really in the offing, Boehner and Cantor wouldn’t need someone as influential as a former VP nominee to try to push it, right?

The bad news? He also thinks that “earned citizenship” is no way, no how, no chance equivalent to amnesty and offered to debate anyone who disagrees. A bunch of people, including Heritage, accepted the challenge. As far as I know, he hasn’t responded.

With Senate passage of a sweeping immigration bill imminent, Ryan has been meeting with House conservatives to persuade them that reform of the immigration system, including a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants, is an economic necessity and critical to fixing the nation’s fiscal problems.

Ryan, a potential 2016 presidential contender, sees himself as a “bridge builder” between immigration advocacy groups and reluctant Republicans, he said in an interview with Reuters…

“I would bet you a nickel that he has had more face time with each member than anyone else in the caucus,” said [Grover] Norquist, an influential conservative who also believes immigration reform is vital to the economy.

Republican strategist Whit Ayres calls Ryan “one of the most effective messengers the Republican party has in the House,” adding that “If Paul Ryan talks, the House Republicans will listen.”…

In the interview, he cited future budget deficits as a reason for urgency on immigration reform. With 10,000 baby boomers retiring from the workforce each day,

Your Phone Calls are Making an Impact on Capitol Hill

Stop Amnesty.

Tell congressmen we don’t want ANY bill passed, no matter what they promise. This bill is Amnesty for 30 million illegals, and a 1200 page bill that brings in 80 million 3rd world immigrants. The bill will destroy the U.S. and will turn the USA into a socialist state as is the democrats/Obama’s plan.

US Capitol Switchboard (202) 224-312

Michelle Bachman explained. ANY bill no matter if it promises all the border security in the world will be a trojan horse.NO bill at all must come out of the House because it will be merged with the Senate Amnesty and trojan horse bill. Call congress.

Tell them to stop all Amnesty or immigration bills.they are all trojan horse bills. some will promise border security that will never be enforced anyway. but in the bill will be the virus:

at least 3 ways to destroy the USA

1. amnesty to 30 million illegals and chain migration.

2. Amnesty forever to ANY foreigner in the 3rd world. all he has to say is he’s seeking political asylum .there are 6 billion poor in the 3rd world . and this bill will allow any of them to come here , all they have to do is to get on a boat and come here.
3. many more work visas for many occupations

Bachmann explained it . The House will write a border security bill only . then in conference the senate will add the virus and then bring it back to the house. then the conservatives won’t vote for it but democrats will all vote for it so then they only need 10% of republicans to pass Amnesty and the virus that will destroy America. so any bill at all will be added the virus . so best thing is for Boner to not let any immigration bill at all come out of the House. that is the only hope . call boner and the members of the House.

But also call the Senators . there is a chance we could still stop it in the Senate as Rush said if we melt the phone lines.

Paul Ryan just lost a bunch of support in WI.

[muir_redwoods]

you don’t have to be a Master plumber to know you don’t clean up the mess until the leak is fixed. Fix the border first

[TexasCajun]

From the Karl Rove / John MeCain / Linda Gramnesty / Maro Rubio wing of the Republican party.

[Slump Tester]

Ryan WAS an up-and-comer, but he started pushing for amnesty, he’s just another RINO loser like McCain.

[rolling_stone]

another traitor to his oath and his constituents..

[greene66]

Yeah, the “stalwart” conservative, who was supposed to placate the right into accepting the wishy-washy Massachusetts liberal Mitt Romney. Paul Ryan, who now is embracing gay adoption, and participated in those rancid, LYING radio ads with Rubio. Not to mention shared the stage with Luis “La Raza” Guiterrez, in support of amnesty. Ryan, another duplicitous trick played on us by the GOP-Establishment.

I have nothing but contempt for him.

[iopscusa]

Skinny legged prick Paul Ryan, knew he was bad news longtime ago. Cannot believe all the FReepers that bought into the “Romney picked a REAL Conservative for VP”...Paul Ryan bombed in the debates and did not even carry his home state. Worthless POS vote him out!

[skeeter]

Its not good news.

There is only one thing congress can/will absolutely deliver on in this mess: amnesty for millions and millions of illegals.

Once granted, it will never be revoked or reversed - we are changed forever.

Everything else - border security, collection of back taxes, english proficiency, all of the goodies intended to calm the population - is so much bullsh*t intended to sell amnesty.

WILL SOMEBODY PUL-EEZE FORWARD THIS TO PAULLY AND HIS STAFF....HE CAN USE THESE AS HIS TALKING POINTS AND AMERICA IS SAVED.....PRINCESS ANN WITH THE KEYS:

In defense of Paul — he didn’t carry his home state because of entrenched voter fraud in Milwaukee, Madison, and his own district.

“With 10,000 baby boomers retiring each day.”

That’s the same song-and-dance the euoweenies fell for, and now they have hundreds of thousands of irate Muslims on welfare.
The red States have a positive birth rate. Let’s turn out lights & go our separate ways if this is the best leadership we can expect.

[forgotten man]

You are right. Amnesty would have been signed into law by now if Romney had been elected. I feel a little bit better thinking that every cloud has a silver lining. You also give a good reason why we should never, never vote for a RINO.

[mason-dixon]

Ryan & Rubio now BOTH are DONE!!!

[qaz123]

F**K Paul Ryan and those like him. None of them will be affected by any of these decisions, that why it’s so easy for them to make and flip-flop.

Nothing but a POS, liar.

[darkangel82]

Someone call the doctor, Ryan’s got a bad case of Romneyitis.
