Republicans want the same thing that Democrats want with the illegals.They want a huge number of new Democrat voters in order to usher in the Single Party Democrat State. It seems counterintuitive and maybe the first reasons are more immediately related to money but these guys are not stupid. They know that the SPDS is what will eventuate. And all their Cheap Labor will just add to the poverty class which will be the 95% of us who are not part of the New Nomenklatura and even most of that class will be prosperous only in the context of a third world economy.
What? The corporations the Congress critters are in bed with would never let them raise this issue. Can you say ‘cheap labor’?
I took a lot of courage for Boehner to tell Joy Bahar in public ‘I’m Obama’s best friend’...
“Courage” isn’t the right word. “Complicit” or “compromised” would be better words. The GOPe is the best Potemkin Village opposition party that money can buy.
The ebola isssue is another. why are no republicans calling for Obama to stop flights from African ebola countries. Maybe I missed it but I havent heard even one yet. WTF is wrong with these cowards?
Both parties only care about the Hispanic vote anymore. Republicans figure conservative whites are in their pocket and dems figure blacks are in their pocket. So all that matters is Hispanics.
So much for representative democracy.
Conservatives should take ownership of this issue and use it to their (and the country’s) best advantage. Thousands of young children have been shamefully abandoned in the US. Those children need to be reunited with their families as soon as possible. If there is no budget for this, then we can accomplish it by crowdfunding. “Think of the children and sponsor a child to reunite him or her with the parents.” The outpouring of money from conservatives would be an inspiration to everyone, and soon these young unfortunates would be on their way home to their native countries.
