The national GOP just labeled Marco Rubio’s immigration bill ‘amnesty’

The National Republican Senatorial Committee is out with a new ad in the Georgia Senate race hitting Democrat Michelle Nunn for supporting "amnesty." It's a pretty interesting ad -- especially given Republicans appear to be starting to use immigration as a wedge issue.

It's most interesting, though, because the "amnesty" cited in the ad appears to be the Senate immigration bill -- the very same Senate immigration bill spearheaded by potential GOP presidential candidate Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and supported by 13 other GOP senators.

The citations used in the ad are an Obama speech from 2013 -- in which Nunn is not mentioned -- and an Aug. 21 Politico story.

KEYWORDS: aliens; amnesty; mccain; nunn; rubio
McCain and Jeff Flake have the worst approval of all Senators. Kelly Ayotte is third in disapproval. Both Scott Brown and Rubens pointed to her amnesty vote as to where they differ.

Pat Roberts is the only anti-amnesty Senator who did not win a primary in a landslide. Enzi, Risch, scott and Inhofe all got 79% or more.

Rubio is a LIAR,
He hemmed and hawed and denied his support for amnesty and got his sorry lying ass elected by fooling us Floriduh voters.
Like the old WHO song says,
“We won’t be fooled again”.

This just proves that Ted Cruz’s mother is part Irish.

Lindsey Graham won his primary handily, and she is pro amnesty.

A bit late in figuring it out, but glad they FINALLY have it right.

Took awhile but the slow-witted Pubbies finally "got it."

Immigration is toxic---DemoRats are scurrying to look like they stepped away from Obama---b/c the voices on the campaign trail are getting louder.

The top issue generating voter discontent? Immigration.

=======================================

Lock-stepping DummyRrats got the discouraging word from the campaign trail.

Just the mention of “broken immmigration system” “unaccompanied minors” and the laughable “amnesty is the right thing to do”-——means eternal damnation.

Banishment forever from wealth-generating Congressional seats.

Voters' tarring and feathering, and riding the Dummies out of town on a rail, is a distinct possibility.
