Phyllis Schlafly, architect of the modern conservative movement and tireless opponent of mass immigration, says GOP hopeful Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL)79% should be disqualified from the race for dishonestly saying one thing about amnesty in English and another in Spanish.
"If Jeb's candidacy falters despite the $114 million he raised, the establishment's next choices, Sen. Marco Rubio and Ohio Gov. John Kasich, have basically similar views," she wrote in her Monday World Net Daily column:
Kasich said the 12 million illegals should be "legalized once we find out who they are," and Rubio said Obama's executive amnesty "can't be terminated because there are already people benefiting from it."
Rubio's statement was made in Spanish on the Spanish-language network Univision, which is reason enough to eliminate him from serious consideration. When somebody is running for president of the United States, why should we have to get somebody to translate his remarks into English?
Why indeed? Bilingualism has corroded political discourse rather than strengthened it. Lying in a different language is a becoming bipartisan pastime. Democratic Rep. Luis Gutiérrez mocked Kathryn Steinle's death during a Spanish Telemundo interview, calling it a "little thing." Steinle was allegedly murdered by an illegal alien. Gutierrez exploded with rage when an expert immigration witness calmly called him out during a congressional hearing.
Breitbart News exposed how Rubio himself endorsed Obama's first executive action acted on behalf of illegal aliens, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), in Spanish to Jorge Ramos, then his campaign claimed he didn't--then they did when pressed.

so she is actually for Kasich, and she is conservative?
someone has been smoking some of that funny green “tobacco” IMO.
BTTT...Phyllis Schlafly
She’s endorsed Trump
well that is a slight improvement in the right direction, IMO.
Mario Rubco is a lying weasel. I remember him lying to us about what was in the bill he schemed up with Schumer.
He lied when he ran for office.
He’s lying now.
Never give more knives to backstabbers
Don’t you remember him trying to sell you:
“Comprehensively Screwing Americans Out Of Their Country”
She is not for Kasich. She criticized Kasich in the article. She has endorsed Donald Trump.
No Bueno, pero muy mal integra...
Nice strawman argument. I hate it when FReepers accuse someone of automatically supporting candidate Y when they come out strongly against candidate X.
Rubio is an amnesty whore and I'll never vote for him.
Rubio’s allowed to say whatever he wants, in whatever language he wants.
Likewise, TRUMP is more than welcome to translate some of those Hispanic Language clips and play them side-by-side with what he’s saying in English.
Correct. Rubio loves open borders and lying. America and Americans aren’t really to his liking.
I like her but at 91 I often wonder if she is making most of the commentary attributed to her name.
If so good for her! (even though I disgree with her on trump)
Good for Phyllis Schlafly, Rubio’s a lying amnesty pimp.
She’s still sharp at 91. Sharper than many people younger than her.
We have one last chance to stop The Cheap Labor Express, she has concluded we need somebody from outside the District of Corruption to do that. I agree with her.
Rubio is already disqualified by anyone who wants a trustworthy candidate. That ship sailed a while ago.
I read full article twice she does not say she supports Kasich.
She is using trump tactics on him, get the story started.
That sets up a perfect opposition ad.
Video of Rubio in Spanish.
Translator, a Hispanic, translates Rubio’s admission that he is for amnesty.
Translator 2, another Hispanic, translates into English.
Video #2 of Rubio in Spanish.
{more Spanish to English translations}

Another ad.
Shows what Rubio said in English compared to what he said in Spanish, followed by Spanish-to-English translation.
She endorsed Trump. She is saying Kasich and Rubio are the same.
