He did say something. I gave you his statement.

Where is the GOP leadership in Congress on this issue? They actually have the power to do something about it. Boehner and Cantor are bottling up immigration reform in committee not allowing it to come to the floor for a vote. Lamar Smith and Steve King are pissed about it. Rubio wanted to offer his own Dream act, but Obama beat him to it.

The Chamber of Commerce owns both parties. People like Murdoch and Blankfein are pushing the Reps including Romney for an amnesty and an increased guest worker program. We are bringing in 125,000 legal foreign workers a month now despite the fact that 23 million Americans are looking for fulltime employment.

Romney at Langone, Murdoch, Blankfein meeting: I won't be 'flip-flopper' on immigration Read the entire article.

"Mitt Romney last week told a private group of potential supporters and business and media elites, including Rupert Murdoch, that he was treading carefully around the issue of immigration to avoid looking like a "flip-flopper."

The moment, the subject of the media mogul's now famous tweet, took place at a private fundraiser/meet-and-greet put together and hosted by Ken Langone at the Union League Club in Manhattan late Thursday afternoon, several hours after the Supreme Court decision on health care came down, multiple sources told POLITICO.

The event was attended by between 40 and 50 people, sources said, including some major names in fundraising, finance and media. They included Murdoch and his top adviser Joel Klein, Randy Falco, the CEO of Univision, Goldman Sachs head Lloyd Blankfein, real estate scion Bill Rudin, hedge fund executives Stanley Druckenmiller and Julian Robertson, Jets owner Woody Johnson, former Rudy Giuliani adviser Anthony Carbonetti, and pollster and strategist Kellyanne Conway, according to sources familiar with the list of attendees.

Lamar Smith and Steve King can both be relied upon to stand up for Americans and fight against allowing illegal aliens to stay..

Ive been in panel meetings in Washington and heard them personally...

but they cant do it alone...

Its unfortunate that the leadership in the house wont back their efforts...

The only acceptable action is deportation...

Id be more concerned about the anarchy from the other 270 MILLION people than what 30 MILLION illegal aliens might do...
