George P. Bush said on Tuesday that “it’s never too late” for Mitt Romney to take a leadership role in the immigration debate, but he acknowledged Republicans were outflanked by President Obama’s election-year decision to allow hundreds of illegal immigrants to remain in the country without fear of deportation.
“Governor Romney had an opportunity to get in front of the president on the issue,” said Mr. Bush, 36, the son of former Gov. Jeb Bush of Florida. “But the president clearly has taken the initiative on it.”
Mr. Bush, who is urging younger voters to increase their participation in the 2012 election through his political action committee called MavPAC, said he hoped Mr. Romney would still “formulate a plan — a more comprehensive plan” on immigration. But he added, “Leading up to Election Day, it’s very difficult to get anything so controversial through, so we’ll see.”

We already have one.
It is called The Law.
You mean to say there are MORE Bushes coming after Jed?
Dear god!
How many times are you going to post about George Prescott Bush today?
I’ve seen 4 so far.
The Bushes are as bad as the Kennedys and Clintons in their sense of noble entitlement. It is profoundly un-American to erect these political dynasties.
Support David Watts for Land Commissioner.
There is no way a republican or RINO can out-pander the democrats.
Democrats conceived the modern American Moocher/Welfare state, developed pandering to a high art and are the real masters of turning people into slugs in return for a few slivers of government cheese.
One more for today.
All of the current solutions they are offering are thoroughly DISHONEST.
Right.
Exactly what our Founding Fathers tried to warn us about.
Why else would there be a reference to “...All Enemies, Foreign and Domestic...” in the Oath of Enlistment that I swore to?
It claimed to legalize 1 million illegal aliens, which turned out to be 3.6 million so any amount claimed today to need Amnesty, multiply that by 3.6 and you'll get much closer to the truth!
Since that time, a mere 36 years later, Congress of both parties, various politicians beginning with President George HW Bush and every President since that time, law enforcement, Department, of (in)Justice, Border Control, State Department and each and every governmental entity throughout this country have turned a blind eye, thanks to the pressure by US Chambers, Multi-national corporations operating in the US and now even unions promised new members to fill their ranks!
One of the few elected law enforcement officers, America's Sheriff Joe Arpaio and a handful, of conservative politicians have paid lip service and the American people who are very opposed to the continued invaders from mostly Southern Border.
The Open Borders Crowd (which include each RINO in and now out of office, major newspapers such as the Wall Street Journal, and every major institution, arts, etc. call those of us who have called for enforcement names such as zenophobics, racists, screaming we want to split up "families."
Enforcement is now seen as anti-immigrant and the rest of whatever other invective mentioned above!
If it calls itself bush... run away quickly.
This is only my second I am not for George P. Does that mean I get one more freebie before you talk about me?
Correct.
He and his Regime are beyond doubt the greatest threat to our Republic that this country has ever faced.
The question is, how much longer do we allow this to continue?
Here’s an honest solution.
Enforce our country’s laws.
I’ve seen 4 so far.

...The Republican Party must embrace more legal immigration.[Posted on 03/19/2013 7:04:07 AM PDT by Perdogg]
Unfortunately, like many of the major debates in Washington, immigration has become a stalemate-where both sides are imprisoned by their own rhetoric or attachment to sacred cows that prevent the possibility of a balanced solution.
Immigration Reform will not occur until Conservative Republicans, like myself, become part of the solution. I am here today to begin that conversation.
Let's start that conversation by acknowledging we aren't going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants.
If you wish to work, if you wish to live and work in America, then we will find a place for you...
This is where prudence, compassion and thrift all point us toward the same goal: bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society.
Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors.
Latinos, should be a natural constituency for the party, Paul argued, but "Republicans have pushed them away with harsh rhetoric over immigration." ...he would create a bipartisan panel to determine how many visas should be granted for workers already in the United States and those who might follow... [and the buried lead] "Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers...[Posted on 04/21/2013 1:52:42 PM PDT by SoConPubbie]
