2016 campaign hinges on legalization

GOP conservatives believed they had won the illegal immigration fight last year when congressional leaders embraced a deportation crackdown, but big-money donors are mounting a counterattack, saying the Republican Party must nominate a pro-legalization candidate if it is to win the White House in 2016.

The day it does that I’m going to do two things - leave the party never to return, and short sell my T-bills.

Then screw the big money donors. The next conservative leader of the country MUST take his or her message direct to the people. Amnesty for all these third-worlders will simply transform the U.S. into Venezuela.

If the GOP must, then I must not vote for them anymore.

We already have an immigration policy not only embraced but codified into law ... enforce it or go pound sand!

Zwick and the Church can stick up their pasty butts.

If they want to turn Salt Lake into Juarez with snow that’s their problem but leave the rest of us out of it.

Better start selling. I’m pretty sure the Cheap Labor Express has taken over the GOP. The majority of the party and its candidates support some form of amnesty.

We have an immigration system. Immigrants comply with it and attain citizenship.

It’s not about immigration.

It’s about cheap labor importation.

Most of the GOP has been bought off by The Cheap Labor Express.

They work for them, not us.

They are traitors to the citizens.

The last 4 Presidential elections have been staged to prevent us from electing a President who would stop the invasion.

That is the only way to stop it.

We MUST elect a President who WILL enforce the laws.

Both parties have a very aggressive proillegal immigration policy already so I’m not sure what they want. Unless they are talking about making the US into a country that will be able to attract immigration longterm, then both are failing miserably

Then I guess they won’t win the White House in 2016.

The GOP is really starting to piss me off. How about listening to the people instead of the dollar bills, you jerks!
