...and the Great Spineless One (aka: boner) had the nerve to send a plea for funds to me (along with an insultingly written “survey”. No money for you and your ilk, boner.

4 Horsemen were sent by the SC Tea Party in 2010. Tim Scott is the only one who has not sold out.

Ted Yoho has a fake conservative challenging him. Yoho is a good candidate except when he got duped into voting for Ryan-Murray.

“However, for those that serve in our military, there should be an opportunity for citizenship. “

“For example, a trio of South Carolina lawmakers, Reps. Jeff Duncan, Mick Mulvaney, and Trey Gowdy – the latter of whom is the chairman of the immigration subcommittee in Goodlatte’s Judiciary panel – have cosponsored the bill, as has McKeon.”

True, but I bet not too many “dreamers” dreamed of going into the military.

If they join the military, that seems fair enough. My grandfather joined the army and fought in WWI in order to become a US citizen. A lot of men from foreign countries did this over the years.

But here’s a question - if this method of citizenship is already legal, why is this new bill inclusion necessary?

They are working very hard to go the way of the Whigs. They are being devious, they promote Amnesty, they will not hold to account a criminal Executive. They’re useless, worse: they’re in the way.

Up to a year ago, I thought that if they went to the back of the bus they could go along for the ride.

Now they clearly need to go UNDER THE BUS.

Question: Hasn’t service in the American military historically been a legitimate way to earn citizenship?

There are already provisions for LEGAL immigrants to join the military and earn citizenship. This is about letting illegals join the US military and become US citizens. How can we know the background or even the true identity of illegals? We know that they are lawbreakers. How many will be foreign agents or terrorists? No way to know. Are these really people we want in the US military?

There are no Republicans, there are Democrats and those that wish to hold office called Democrat lights. Both want the same thing (besides power), a future in politics and who cares about the country anyway... Me, Mine, and Ours!

Sometime in the late seventies, the allowance for a foreign national to earn his US citizenship by serving in the military was done away with. Now, you still have to apply and pass all the standard requirements and tests to attain citizenship, with no preference for the time you served whatsoever.

Boehner’s Amnesty Czar’s Twitter feed has gone to radio silence. Becky Tallent has the gravitas of Brittany Spears, but something’s up.
