To the GOPe,
DON'T DO IT. Last warning.

"...Republicans, alarmed by the GOP's shrunken share of the Hispanic vote in the 2012 election, are eager to enact "comprehensive" reform legislation." AND, the PUBICS are STILL NOT going to get the 'beaner' vote!!!

Mr. Rubio is "a game-changer," says Mr. Graham. "He brings a lot to the table," with solid conservative credentials and a large following among Republicans. (end excerpt)
Be sure to read the rest, I can only guess at why immature and amateurish Rubio was recruited, outmaneuvered, then 'bought'.

Once this happens, you’ll never see a conservative elected anywhere IMHO.

MEET THE NEW DEMOCRATIC VOTERS---Viscious Mexican drug cartels are swarming into the US----beheadings are their calling card. The Mexican drug lords are partners in financial arrangements with Hamas and Hezbollah terorists. They will be empowered to expand those partnerships via The Schumer-Rubio amnesty bill. Its a small step from blanketing America w/ marijuana and heroin to aiding and abetting Hezbollah terrorist operations. To these hardened criminal, the profit motive rules, no matter the source.
NY POST EXCERPT--- Mexican cartels dispatch agents deep inside US - spread into non-border states
CHICAGO (AP) Mexican drug cartels whose operatives once rarely ventured beyond the US border are dispatching some of their most trusted agents to live and work deep inside the United States an emboldened presence that experts believe is meant to tighten their grip on the world's most lucrative narcotics market and maximize profits. If left unchecked, authorities say, the cartels' move into the American interior could render the syndicates harder than ever to dislodge and pave the way for them to expand into other criminal enterprises such as prostitution, kidnapping- and-extortion rackets and money laundering.
Some cartels even have Mexican operatives fill out job applications before being dispatched to the US, Riley added.
In Mexico, the cartels are known for a staggering number of killings more than 50,000, according to one tally. Beheadings are sometimes a signature. So far, cartels don't appear to be directly responsible for large numbers of slayings in the United States, though the Texas Department of Public Safety reported 22 killings and five kidnappings in Texas at the hands of Mexican cartels from 2010 through mid- 2011. Still, police worry that increased cartel activity could fuel heightened violence.--SNIP--
In Chicago, the police commander who oversees narcotics investigations, James O'Grady, said street-gang disputes over turf account for most of the city's uptick in murders last year, when slayings topped 500 for the first time since 2008.
Although the cartels aren't dictating the territorial wars, they are the source of drugs. Riley's assessment is stark: He argues that the cartels should be seen as an underlying cause of Chicago's disturbingly high murder rate. "They are the puppeteers," he said. "Maybe the shooter didn't know and maybe the victim didn't know that. But if you follow it down the line, the cartels are ultimately responsible."

They don’t give two sh*ts about what we have to say about it. Most GOPe senaturds will be long gone once that 13-year timeframe is up. La Raza’s money and influence own this bunch.
On this and Obamacare, we are screwed. Big time.

Sorry, I was hoping what happened last week in Boston will stop them headlong on this dash, any thinking person would have slowed down and ask questions, but today I feel more pessimistic.

So Rubio showed up with support and then lost 100% of it.
Stuff happens in politics.
Fred wrote this nonsense? Time to retire!

"Wont make it past the filibuster."
Agree except we have not been hearing much if any talk about a filibuster lately. Barnes and Kristol are pathetic. Amazingly we have gone from 70+% against in 2007 to 70% in favor now. Go figure.

Two months ago it was gay marriage, last month it was gun control, and this month, amnesty. What will it be next month?
