Rove-affiliated group attacks Grimes for stance on immigration bill (that Rove endorsed)

On Monday, Alison Lundergan Grimes, the Democratic challenger to Sen. Mitch McConnell in the hard-fought Kentucky senate race, tried to distance herself from President Obama with an ad showing her shooting a gun. McConnell responded in kind. At the same time, an independent group with connections to Republican strategist Karl Rove began airing this ad blasting the “Obama-Grimes” plan to give “amnesty” to illegal immigrants.

Crossroads GPS, another organization affiliated with Rove, during the 2013 debate actually ran ads calling for a pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants, “where they will pay a fine, prove employment and meet other requirements,” as well as prohibit eligibility for welfare or Obamacare.

Rove has been pushing amnesty since 2004. Steve King wrote him a letter on January 6, 2004 saying it was divisive.

Unlike Rove Steve King is for unity. He even defended Rand's choice to run away from dreamers setting him up.

McConnell supports amnesty. The only thing he said was that he didn't see amnesty happening in early 2014. At no point did he say he was going to filibuster Boehner's amnesty bill.

McConnell still wants to give them legal status and have a ag worker plan, where the most of the "ag workers" will be working in factories and elsewhere. Anywhere people eat food will be counted as an ag industty.

Has Cornyn run any ads against his Arab mogul immigrant Dream (D) candidate?

Karl Rove is the king of the liberal Rinos in our party. I automatically go to the weather channel if he comes on Fox. What has happened is the we in the anti amnesty movement have won AGAIN!! Marco ( Shumer’s buddy) Rubio has totally collapsed on amnesty and is begging us to forget. We won’t forget Mario. But Karl Rove is a fat faced lying bas7ard if he is running ads with cornyn to reject amnesty. These men — with McCain have set up the ruination of this great country and its sovereignty by the communist in the White House. They are to be despised.

This is not welcome news - Rove’s ads are terrible and will not be helpful.
