Phyllis Schlafly: Disqualify Marco Rubio for Lying About Amnesty in Spanish
http://www.breitbart.com ^ | August 18, 2015 | Katie McHugh

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.

Rubio is already disqualified by anyone who wants a trustworthy candidate. That ship sailed a while ago.

The Rube is disqualified because he’s already Constitutionally disqualified..

Rubio is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. He will say anything to get where he wants to be,

Anyone who would vote for him is naïve at best.

Longtime conservative activist Phyllis Schlafly has not endorsed Donald Trump for president, she told a radio show this week.

Schafly told the “Focal Point” program that she had not endorsed the billionaire businessman despite an interview in which she agreed he could be the “last hope” for America.

“I haven’t really endorsed anybody for president,” Schafly clarified after the WorldNetDaily “exclusive” on Dec. 22 in which she was interviewed.

Establishment Pukes like Rubio want a second underclass in this country that speaks another language for political power, it becomes so much easier to be elected when you can say one thing to one group of people then turn around and in a different language say the complete opposite to the other group....

WHY THE FATE OF THE REPUBLIC depends on Bernie Sanders.

Let me explain. Look at the potential general election matchups as will be seen and understood by undecided persuadable voters.

Rubio/Clinton>
R= young, inexperienced, nice, rino (vs) Cl= media favorite, old, experienced, grandma, mean. Rubio’s problem, how do you fight a grandma? The Matchup= Young kid vs grandma. Winner grandma in the first round.

Cruz/Clinton>
Cr= smart, lawyerly verbiage, gentleman (vs) Cl= media favorite, old, experienced, grandma, mean. The Matchup = Smartass lawyer vs grandma. Winner grandma by unanimous decision.

Trump/Clinton>
T= grandpa, old, high negatives polling, take no prisoner fighter (vs) Cl= media favorite, grandma, old, experienced, high negatives in polling, mean. The Matchup= Badass vs badass. Winner grandma in a split decision.

Rubio and Cruz have no chance by visuals alone. Trump an outside chance.
All three would beat Bernie.

Conclusion: Vote Bernie in primary. I’m serious.

What’s really mind-blowing is that Assad’s Syria should have been held out as a MODEL COUNTRY in the way that ALL PEOPLE were treated equally...regardless of ethnic background, religion, etc. Sure, he was nasty to those that opposed him, but that can be put in context - if you don’t try to overthrow him, you’re almost certainly safe and protected.
