Mitt Romney: Republicans Should 'Swallow Hard,' Pass 'Permanent' Amnesty Bill
Breitbart ^ | 26 Nov 2014 | Tony Lee

Posted on 11/27/2014 6:42:56 AM PST by Cheerio

Former Massachusetts Governor and failed presidential candidate Mitt Romney believes Republicans should "swallow hard" and pass a permanent amnesty bill in the wake of President Barack Obama's executive amnesty that even Romney conceded would encourage more illegal immigrants to enter the country.

This is exactly what these DEMOCRATS want. Until Reagan signed the amnesty into law, in the early 80’s, the state of California was a “RED” state. Don’t think that the democrats didn’t notice all of that. They believe that if there were no borders, they will be the dominant party in the USA for the next 100 years. IT’S ALL POLITICS

“Your idea of paying them to leave is interesting. I hate to reward the illegals for breaking our laws, but it would probably be cheaper in the long run.”

Asset forfeiture would work the same magic.

If they leave on their own they can take their assets with them. If they stick around to get deported they risk having everything confiscated as well.

Probably the only way to see that deportation is actually enforced will be to give all confiscated assets to the Democrats and the GOPe. I’m only half kidding. If we haven’t learned that there isn’t an ounce of patriotism or loyalty among those treason loving crooks then we’ve learned nothing.

The old “$h!t sandwich”. The more bread you have the easier it is to swallow. And Mittens has plenty of bread.

We don’t need sweeping immigration reform...we need sweeping WELFARE REFORM!

With welfare reform would come the self-deportation of millions. The flow of illegals across our border would stop.
Welfare reform is better than a wall. Costs nothing..saves lots of money.

Democats held congress and the presidency for two years, held the senate and the presidency for six years, if they wanted this legislation, they had plenty of opportunities to propose it, pass it, and get it signed.

I see no reason why we should do something to help their agenda. Let's help those who want to come here LEGALLY and EJECT the line cutters and kick them back to their own countries. If it be a hell hole, they certainly know what it could be like if they FIXED IT.

Only good thing about Obama winning is Romney and McCain lost.

They’d actually have been worse for the country by “getting things done” with the Dhims instead of being United against them

Appearing on Fox News Sunday right before the midterms, in which Republicans were about to take back Congress largely because voters disapproved of Obama on illegal immigration, Romney said or a potential GOP-led Congress: "You're going to see a provision first of all to secure the border, second of all, to deal with those who have come here illegally and, third, to make sure our immigration policies are open and transparent to many people who do want to come here illegally. That's going to happen."

Look, once the border is secure, we can talk. Not just a bill passed, but the action taken. It'll never happen with Obamugabe.

I agree, Jim, that we could get rid of a great deal of the problem. But there seems to be no desire by the RATS and little desire by the GOP to do so. My old pal George Putnam, God rest his soul, was all over this issue three decades ago. If he were alive, he would not believe what is happening to the country.

IMPEACH - Obama’s executive order allows illegal aliens to destroy America’s soul
By Kevin Fobbs

Renew America 11/23/2014

Are we stupid or what? Did our parents, and grandparents and great grandparents just simply get it wrong about our nation and its values. Did the greatest generation, who fought against Nazism and tyranny, sacrifice and die on foreign soil so that our American Dream and its values and principles could simply become a joke? This is what has befallen the nation since Obama took the oath of office as president of the United States. Now he stabs the nation in its heart and soul with an Executive Order that allows millions of illegal alien immigrants to become unofficial-official citizens. According to the New York Times Thursday, November 20th, is the date the president decided to shield illegal immigrants from deportation.

There are hundreds of thousands of liberals, socialists, Democrats, and some Republicans in Name Only (RINO) who support this move by Obama to give into the tyranny of relentless badgering at the nation’s walls of law that protect Americans. This action by the president is a culmination of a series of lies, mistruths, and out and out hammerlock tactics that have nearly strangled the lifeblood of liberty from the U.S. Constitution and the laws which protect Americans.

These illegal aliens have plied their tales of woe and of desperation upon the willing ears of sympathetic mainstream media writers and have evoked images of pain and suffering of years on the run. Can you imagine that: years of running from the law which was supposed to be enforced by the Border Patrol agents and the Obama administration. So a criminal who breaks into your home is now given the keys to the house because it is politically incorrect to deny the law breaker access.

What about justice and following the rules that were and should still be the hallmark of this great nation? Are they now trivialized and even scoffed at by the inhabitant of the White House and backroom mainstream media pundits?

Do not be mistaken, this is not an invitation to warm and friendly illegal immigrants who only want a chance at the American Dream. No, it is an out and out invasion by law breakers who have no respect for the laws that govern the nation, or for its language: ENGLISH!

The rest of the history

There are scores of reasons I do not like Mitt Romney (though I did — while holding my nose — vote for him over Obama; but that was a no-brainer).

The man is an insane loser i see that now. Its probably a good thing in retrospect that he managed to steal defeat from the jaws of victory 2 years ago.
