Top House Republican Declares He Wants Total Amnesty
Redstate ^ | 12/5/2014 | Erick Erickson

Posted on 12/05/2014 10:27:20 AM PST by JSDude1

House Republicans, coming up with every excuse under the sun to avoid stopping President Obama, are letting slip the real reason.

Congressman Rep. Pete Sessions (R-TX)69%69%, chairman of the House Rules Committee, is telling Democratic lawmakers he wants total amnesty.

The Daily Caller reports Sessions met with Democratic lawmakers telling them how expansive his vision of immigration is before Rep. John Boehner (R-OH)N/AN/A announced the GOP would give up the fight on immigration.

More details are here. It is more and more obvious the only way the GOP will stop Obama is if House conservatives hold the line and oppose both the rule on the continuing resolution and the continuing resolution itself.

Time to work the phones people.

So after winning a landslide victory, the GOP is apologizing and making sure it will lose in 2016.

Ho hum...

Another misquote helpfully provided by a Democrat to try to whip up discord among us patriots.

The video shows Sessions did NOT say he favors “...Amnesty...”.

He DID say we should continue to “...deport criminals...”, a process which Obama has slowed down.

So let’s not be in a rush to believe lies about our allies.

Besides, if we don’t “convert” enough Congressional Democrats to impeach Obama before 2017, he can protect his precious illegal “Executive Order” until he leaves office — no matter what Sessions says or does.

add Petraeus to the search and read. Don’t know why he was taken out except for knowing too much about Benghazi.

Why don't we just make it simple and hand out American citizenship to everybody who wants it? That should make it easy on those sneaking in or wanting to.

I'm sure the GOP Mandarins and their Chamber of Commerce handlers would be happy with all the cheap labor and potential voters. It will also help cement their bona fides with their Friends Across The Aisle. I'm sure there are enough jobs and free welfare money to go around for whomever wants it.

We could re-name ourselves The United Suckers of the Entire World and forget all about that pesky Constitution stuff, too!

What have we got to lose?

>>NORTH AMERICAN UNION<<
Yep. The unionization of continents such as the European union, Asian union, N. American union must happen to move one step closer to a One World Government.

The nation that cannot control its borders (and immigration) is NOT a nation. The republic is dead and we killed it.

Louis Gohmert for speaker, there are rumblings that Gowdy isn’t as conservative as you’d like to believe.

I think CF was talking about Sessions.

The House GOP already had it’s leadership vote, Boehner was reelected the GOP nominee for Speaker without opposition.

I’ll settle for either one.

Those “rumblings” could be just dem disinformatziya. Sow dissension in the ranks.

It’s what they do.

Um it came from Erick Erickson on Redstate-he wrote that Gowdy doesn’t really want to support conservatives on Immigration, now that he’s “got them in his pocket” over Benghazi.
