Chris Christie has gone from being the Republican Wunderkind to elephant in the room, and Hilary Clinton is, well...

The other elephant in the room.

I don’t know how open borders and amnesty in this economy can be considered practical.

anyone who says illegal immigration is an act of love, is not a sane person. And yes I know the “context” of who the “love” is directed for. Ain’t buying it.

Let’s talk about MEXICO’s stance on illegals in their country, and what they do to those breaking into their country. Do THEY consider it an act of love?

I know what Mexico does to their illegals. I know the rights they give foreigners in their country. To have them sit here and lecture us about how bad our immigration laws is like having to listen to a nazi lecture us on how racist we are towards the jews.

“I don’t know how open borders and amnesty in this economy can be considered practical.”

It isn’t. But it’s best not to try to understand the RINO mind.

Are you the same Eric Gurr who’s running against John Boehner??

We see it every election cycle: a rush of increasingly insane extremist Republicans appealing to the base, slack-brained, wannabe libertarian Tea Partiers and religious fundamentalists, sometimes all rolled up into the same package, as with Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), the non-thinking white man’s Christian Nationalist.

This might be the single most incoherent political observation I have ever seen in print.

I see the libtard fascists are already selecting our losing presidential candidate for us. Even uses reverse-psychology suggesting a Bush is the only “sane” choice, at least until pinko-light Jeb secures the nomination, then the long knives come out as usual. No thanks...

Really?

Sane choice? I thought doing the same thing over and expecting different results was the definition of insanity.

"a vision that is bigger & broader"

More of the vision that sees sneaking over another people's border as an "act of love."

As we wrote in another thread, earlier:

"It goes deeper than his merely trying to rationalize a justification for being a "scoff-law," although that certainly should disqualify the man for public office. His focus is on those aliens, who want to come in--including those who came in illegally. That is simply not the correct focus for any American committed to our own people. One may believe those here illegally are some how the most noble, most beautiful people on earth. It would not change the duty of any American contemplating public policy for America.

"The only acceptable focus is the interests of the rooted people of America. This is not debatable, when you read the Constitution. The very preamble states the concern for the posterity of the Founders. When anyone here legitimately takes the oath of citizenship, they accept commitment to the preservation of the multi-generational achievement of the rooted population.

"Those of us whose forebears arrived after the Constitution came into effect in 1789, surely are honor bound to preserve the people who accepted us and allowed us to participate in their achievement. If Jeb does not understand this; if he has been led astray, by some unfortunate interest; it can never excuse his dereliction of commitment to the oath he took, every time he was sworn in to public office."

Posing as an enlightened prophet, enlarging the understanding of others, is no substitute for actually offering a rational argument for any part of that "vision." The last thing America needs is another pseudo-intellectual poseur claiming to be elevating our perception. His babel reminds one of some of the Leftwing sophomores, who offered the same pretense of serious thought in College.

Only down the rabbit hole with Alice, is this man an "Obligatory Sane Republican!"
