Paul Ryan Leading House for 'Amnesty' Deal
NewsMax ^ | June 29, 2013

Posted on 06/29/2013 1:41:35 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

Paul Ryan, the Republican congressman and former vice-presidential candidate best known for his war on spending, is emerging as his party's leading champion of immigration reform in the U.S. House of Representatives.

With Senate passage of a sweeping immigration bill imminent, Ryan has been meeting with House conservatives to persuade them that reform of the immigration system, including a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants, is an economic necessity and critical to fixing the nation's fiscal problems.

Ryan, a potential 2016 presidential contender, sees himself as a "bridge builder" between immigration advocacy groups and reluctant Republicans, he said in an interview with Reuters.

He argues that the immigration system is broken and must be overhauled. "It doesn't work for national security. It doesn't work for economic security," Ryan said.

The only thing positive coming out of this latest shamnesty push is these open borders internationalists letting us know well before 2014 who they really are.

We’ve certainly got our work cut out for us, though.

Looks like I can take all the money I would have donated to Rep candidates and spend it on something I can rely on.

Such as Free Republic...and ammo.

He has also said secure the border first. This means his House bill will differ from the Senate bill as it will have a very strong secure the border first provision. IT’S A TRICK. He’ll use that and many GOP Congressman will vote FOR this and then we’ll all watch it DISAPPEAR IN CONFERANCE where the Senate version will be adopted and they will get AMNESTY now and our borders will never be secured. Ryan and our GOP reps. will live happily ever after claiming they did the right thing but lost in conferance. KILL IT, NO AMNESTY BILL.

What we need is a path for deportation.

The only people that need to “come out of the shadows” are those that bought Congress.

Ryan needs contributions from big business for his run in 2016. The current McRubio-Schumer amnesty bill hurts our national security and threatens our economy. We need to throw this guy overboard.

Politicians think we’re stupid. The immigration system is broken cause the Politicians broke it.
I knew Ryan was a phoney Conservative when he used “undocumented immigrants” on the Mark Levin show. Real Conservatives don’t use lib lingo and they don’t push amnesty first.

Paul Ryan combined with Romney and both could not even carry either of their home states in this last presidential election. That kind of epic failure almost looks planned to me.

Rag the prick Ryan on Twitter about his inability to even win his home state for the Romney mis-campaign!

From the article....
“Paul Ryan, the Republican congressman and former vice-presidential candidate best known for his war on spending”

I couldn’t stop from laughing after that sentence.

Ryan and Rubio are two liars and frauds.

Let's not overreact.

It may simply mean that they are not slaves to ethics. Having ethical principles is so last century.
Or it may be simply a special sensitivity to closet skeletons.
Or maybe some of their family members have been threatened.

We are talking about both thug-o-crats from Chicago and every corrupt large city on the East AND West Coasts!

Romney Republicanism is to real conservatism what Bill Clinton is to marital fidelity and truth-telling.

Opposites.
