GOP CHIEF: Mitt Romney's 'Self-Deportation' Quote Was 'Racist' And 'Horrific'

Correction, 12:26 p.m. ET: An original version of this story said that Reince Priebus referred to Mitt Romney’s comments as “racist.” He said it “hurts us.” Business Insider regrets the error.

Though it wasn't a topic of any of the panels here, multiple state chairs and GOP officials openly talked about their support for comprehensive immigration reform

Interesting strategy, building the brand by smearing the brand.

This is why I don’t give money to the Republican party. They just waste it paying huge salaries to idiots like this.

Just how can it be “racist” to talk of enforcing laws against obvious criminals? Reibus is supporting illegal invasion of America. Reibus should be deported...what a completely compromised fool.

Whoever decided the best way to destroy the GOP was to infiltrate it with morons and make normal Americans more embarrassed to belong to it than to the Democratic Party, that tactic was a stroke of political genius.

The GOP is self-detonating.

"Using the word 'self-deportation' — it's a horrific comment to make," Priebus said, in a forceful rebuke. "I don't think it has anything to do with our party. When someone makes those comments, obviously, it's racist."

This cannot possibly be an accurate quote. No Republican would say anything so ludicrous. I'd have to see the video to believe the RNC Chairman really said this.

When it comes to gunning down extremists in the street here, is there any doubt where the bulk of the GOP will stand on the issue?

Actually I think there is some self-deportation going on. U.S. GDP growth is an anemic 2%. Mexico is expecting 4% and perhaps 7% next year.

What I have heard is illegal immigration is running at net zero.

It may be homophobic to say so but I suspect the little turd burglar keeps a latino poolboy at home.

There can never be effective immigration legislation. As long as there is hunger, miserable poverty and repression on one side and relative prosperity on the other, human beings will cross borders despite the laws or risks to improve their lot. That is understandable. What is not understandable is why once here and convicted of a felony, there is not a consensus to deport them immediately after finishing their prison term.

What a drama queen. What is racist about self-deportation? Preibus and all the other GOPers’ just don’t get it......America wants them to self-deport, wants to send them home....whatever it takes to keep them from destroying our country. It crosses party lines.

Idiots.

Even worse, its becoming a crime to be perceived as “racist”. I may be wrong but I’m not seeing anything in the constitution that negates the rights of racists whether they be the KKK or the NAACP.
