What say you?
Thanks Laissez-faire capitalist. He was for it before he was trying to blame it on someone else.
Woodward is also owned by Odinga, too. He just won’t admit it.
Woodward is a fellow traveler and one of the faithful.
No problem man...
Keep up the fight!
No treading on me...
Every now and then, still, Woodward commits a DC gaffe - which in reality is telling the truth.
Let’s say it’s the time of the Reformation. Woodward is Catholic and Obama is Protestant. Woodward is part of the faithful, but he sees Obama as being theologically bent in the wrong direction. It’s socialism vs. communism. Socialists are the first killed when the communists take over. Just as Protestants were killed when Catholics took over. Liberalism is a religion.
They blame everything on the Republicans because the media just swallows the liberal ejaculate and spits it in our face while Boehner and GOP play nice.
Let’s start that conversation by acknowledging we aren’t going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants... bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society. Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors. [but he’s not in favor of amnesty, snicker, definition of is is]
...by softening its edge on some volatile social issues and altering its image as the party always seemingly "eager to go to war... We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said.

...The Republican Party must embrace more legal immigration.
Unfortunately, like many of the major debates in Washington, immigration has become a stalemate-where both sides are imprisoned by their own rhetoric or attachment to sacred cows that prevent the possibility of a balanced solution.
Immigration Reform will not occur until Conservative Republicans, like myself, become part of the solution. I am here today to begin that conversation.
Let’s start that conversation by acknowledging we aren’t going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants.
If you wish to work, if you wish to live and work in America, then we will find a place for you...
This is where prudence, compassion and thrift all point us toward the same goal: bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society.
Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors.

"The sequester stemmed from the debt ceiling fight in 2011, when Democrats agreed to impose the across-the-board cuts if a bipartisan "supercommittee" couldn't reach a deficit reduction deal. That supercommittee failed to act, and the sequester went into effect earlier this year Source
Well, that certainly conjures up an image.
contributing. Instead of sucking 2k or more per family per month out of our economy they’ll suck out 2k or less. Math is unfamiliar to these pols.
Driveby poster.
Pardon, but there's nothing new about an op-ed written last February 22nd.
Woodward’s not owned by Obama - he’s not even owned by the Washington Post...
