GOP outrage over immigration will backfire come election time

The GOPe are out of touch with the Middle Class. They are wealthy enough that the immigration doesn’t hurt them. They aren’t taking their jibs and the added tax burden is negligible to them.

At this point, it is not just the Tea Party that the GOPe should fear, it is all working class voters if both parties.

The president and most Democrats see it as a question of keeping together families ...To Republicans, it is primarily a security issue of rounding up the “illegals” and sending them back.

So one plan is to unite illegal families here and the other is to unite the illegal families back at their legal home.

I love it when a Jewish publication tells me what I am doing wrong when they OVERWHELMINGLY voted for Obammer who would prefer the state of Israel disappear from the world.

I guess my last post on this was removed. Many Jews are highly supportive of removing illegal aliens from Israel, yet state it is racist to do so in the US.

Mrs. Bloomfield’s little Dougie appears to be very concerned about the future of the Republicans. I think this commie ‘RAT advice to Republicans scheme has run it’s course. After the 2014 elections, I believe the commie ‘RATS need to worry about their ‘RAT comrades getting elected and reelected. The GOP seems to have taken care of their problems. Sorry Dougie. All of you liberals are braindead. Worry about your own political party Skippy. The GOP can take care of itself.

Well, we don’t have to listen to them; they can go scratch!!!

[Thunder90]

These are the same “jews” that want to see Palestine become a state. Some of them even wish that Israel didn’t exist!

[C. Edmund Wright]

Zackly right......what we know is that liberals are liberals FIRST - regardless of whatever else they are - Jews, feminists, enviro wackos, etc....

Republicans may be counting on under-voting by Hispanics, as happened in this month’s election, but that was attributed to disappointment in Washington’s inaction on immigration. Since then the president’s executive order has been enthusiastically received, as the Latino Decisions poll showed, and the uniform condemnation of Obama’s action by Republicans is expected to boost turnout in 2016, to the benefit of Democrats.

That is likely true. It is also true that blacks are noted (by Republicans) for being impervious to discussion of their own best interests.

But unless blacks are really, really thick it will sink in that saturating the bottom of the labor market with Hispanics doesn’t do a thing for blacks.

[MurrietaMadman]

Why should anybody think they are right on this?

Why, indeed.

Democrats Defy Logic The Hispanic vote is only influential in a few states: California, New Mexico, or Nevada to name a few. They tend to congregate in large numbers in a small number of states. The Black vote is wide and deep, especially in the South and Northeast. Hispanics are approximately 16 percent of the nation’s population, but only 10 percent of eligible voters. Even worse, only 7 percent vote.

The Hispanic population of eligible voter is smaller than any other group (voting age population or VAP). The VAP for Whites is more than 77 percent, for Blacks 67 percent, and for Asians 52 percent.

In fact, voters said, by a 51-39 margin, “those living in the U.S. illegally but working should be offered legal status.”

It all depends how you ask the question. Ask "should the border be secured and immigration laws vigorously enforced", and you will get about 80% yes.

[Waryone]

And we know there will be backlash. Just look at dem ruled Oregon to see how badly they wanted illegals to get driver’s licenses. Oh wait!

Talk about blind. Did you not see where this article comes from? It’s called JNEWS. I’ll stand by my statement.

And by the way, when did God give you the right to judge me? And are you in charge of this forum? I didn’t know that.

Merry Christmas and leave me alone.

Constitution amendment needed? We need a Constitution amendment to stop presidents like Obama from abusing the power of executive action. Something like this:

"Majority votes of both the Senate and the House can overturn an executive order."

Blind; It is an opinion post by one Jew in a San Francisco weekly called www.jweekly.com. Tagging all Jews as blind in a myopic political-religious diatribe is incredibly foolish, as well as unspiritual. Leave the Jews alone and I will leave you alone.

Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him.

Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?

So basically what it means is that any one who knows what they are talking about and tells it like it is probably will not be nominated much less elected as president.

Recent history shows that we need to nominate some one who don`t know what they are talking about and lies faster that a fox can trot.

THIS is what will backfire !
