Exactly.
The media is the greatest propaganda machine the world has ever known. More subtle than Hitler or Stalin's media, and better funded.
The media never, ever vetted Obama. There is so much we do not know about this vile man, thanks to the media. They are, as Democrat Pat Caddel put it, the enemy of the American media. They must be defeated first.
If it has anything in the bill to do with spending technically it’s toast. All new spending has to originate in House bills.
Yeah, and Ned Beatty had a great weekend canoeing in North Georgia.
That guy was a broken clock. He was miles off on Sarah Palin, and thought that Duncan Hunter would be President in 2012.
Please....you're kidding, right? Pissant has been gone for over two years now.
Rubio’s role was to be chaff aimed at the middle of the Party. He didnt need to convert us, just neutralize us (with the help of Zuckerberg’s lying ads).
The goal was to fix the mistakes made in 2006 by convincing enough of the party that conservatives would be brought along to pass amnesty (and Rubio was the face of this sleight of hand).
The GOP-e is patting themselves on the back for saving the Republican Party from both demographics and their own base.
Indeed, the reverse will happened. Amnesty will prove to be the breaking point of the GOP. The problem with “where else do conservatives have to go” is that eventually, it no longer matters just so long as its no longer here. We’ve arrived at that point. Thank you, Marco: I mean that. You destroyed the Republican Party and eventually, we’ll all be better as a result. In the meantime, my thanks is accompanied by a healthy “Freep You” to boot.
Hope Rubio gets recalled.
TALKING POINTS---Just before the IR procedural vote, Judiciary Committee member Sen Grassley offered a simple amendment to the Judiciary Committee considering voting the immigration bill out of commmittee. "The secretary (of homeland security) may not grant registered provisional immigrant status to an alien under this section unless the alien fully discloses to the secretary all the names and Social Security account numbers that the alien has ever used to obtain employment in the United States," said Grassley's amendment.
Grassley's amendment would not have prohibited illegal aliens from being converted into legal aliens just because they had used names and Social Security numbers that did not belong to them. It would only have required that the illegal aliens make the names and numbers they used known to DHS before they could be granted the right to legally live in the United States.
Grassley said, "Congress should not thumb its nose at the millions of Americans who are victims of identity theft, often perpetrated by an undocumented person who steals Social Security numbers to get jobs, govt benefits, driver's licenses and more. This amendment will simply require the person applying for RPI status to disclose any previously used Social Security numbers," said Grassley. "It's the first step to helping clean up the mess that's been created for the victim of identity theft. The amendment also authorizes certain federal agencies, upon receipt of this information, to notify individuals who were the victims."
===============================================
ON RECORD AS AIDING AND AETTING FELONIES Ranking member Sen Schumer dismissed Grassley's proposal. "When people are living in undocumented status, there are times, I suppose, when they've made up identities, made up Social Security numbers," Schumer told his Judiciary Committee colleagues. "How are they going to remember all that, and are we going to delay RPI status? "(The) purpose of this bill is to bring people out of the shadows. We all know when they lived in the shadows, they had to forge documents, forge Social Security numbers, et cetera. I just don't see how, when you've lived here 10 years, and you've had many different identities, many different numbers, you're going to remember them all," said Schumer.
==========================================
The Senate Judiciary committee defeated Grassley's amendment 8 to 10 on a party-line vote.
=======================================
ACTION ALERT Freepers should mobolize locally--get grand juries to begin indicting these Senators for FAILING TO UPHOLD THE LAW AGAINST FELONIES. A few convictions and imprisonment oughta wake up the treasonous Congress. KEEP IN MIND---those elected to office are held to a higher standard of law than we peons....but have never been held to account.

WIKI Involuntary servitude is a United States legal and constitutional term for a person laboring against that person's will to benefit another, under some form of coercion other than the worker's financial needs. While laboring to benefit another occurs also in the condition of slavery, involuntary servitude does not necessarily connote the complete lack of freedom experienced in chattel slavery; involuntary servitude may also refer to other forms of unfree labor. Involuntary servitude is not dependent upon compensation or its amount.
The Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution makes involuntary servitude illegal under any U.S. jurisdiction whether at the hands of the U.S. government or in the private sphere, except as punishment for a crime: "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."

Exactly. I have no desire to be a serf on a corportist plantation. Rubio, Ryan and the rest of the beltway GOP who support amnesty and trampling our constitutional rights can GTH. I voted for them both and feel this is nothing short of a brazen betrayal. I am done.
The GOP “leadership” has fumbled this badly. Amnesty goes over like a lead balloon in the white male demo. Without them there basically is no GOP. It will take many years to replace those WM base voters who walk. The GOP is done for decades.
Hey give him a break! He has no choice but to fund his show with constant horribly repetitive product pitches and radio commercials that make you want to poke out your eardrums with spaghetti sticks.
