A Tale of Two Shiftys’
There is a bigger controversy about to break wide-open that’s potentially far more significant than Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell approving Nikki Haley’s non-subtle attack on GOP front runner Donald Trump. That bigger controversy is the Spanish version of the GOP State of the Union rebuttal containing an “amnesty pledge“.
As this is written, Governor Nikki Haley is trying to get out ahead of the building expose’. Haley just gave a DC press conference claiming she does not support “amnestyâ€; however, against her earlier admission of Speaker Ryan and Leader McConnell approving her script – the Spanish version must have held similar approvals.
Governor Haley gave the English version, Miami Representative and party-insider Mario Diaz-Barlat delivered it in Spanish. Here’s a (paragraph by paragraph) comparison as translated by the Miami Herald (emphasis mine):
♦ English (Via Haley): No one who is willing to work hard, abide by our laws, and love our traditions should ever feel unwelcome in this country.
Spanish (Via Diaz-Barlat): No one who is willing to work hard, abide by our laws, and love the United States should ever feel unwelcome in this country. It’s not who we are.
♦ English: At the same time, that does not mean we just flat out open our borders. We can’t do that. We cannot continue to allow immigrants to come here illegally. And in this age of terrorism, we must not let in refugees whose intentions cannot be determined.
Spanish: At the same time, it’s obvious that our immigration system needs to be reformed. The current system puts our national security at risk and is an obstacle for our economy.
♦ English: We must fix our broken immigration system. That means stopping illegal immigration. And it means welcoming properly vetted legal immigrants, regardless of their race or religion. Just like we have for centuries.
Spanish: It’s essential that we find a legislative solution to protect our nation, defend our borders, offer a permanent and human solution to those who live in the shadows, respect the rule of law, modernize the visa system and push the economy forward.
♦ English: I have no doubt that if we act with proper focus, we can protect our borders, our sovereignty and our citizens, all while remaining true to America’s noblest legacies.
Spanish: I have no doubt that if we work together, we can achieve this and continue to be faithful to the noblest legacies of the United States.
It is important to remember the backdrop to this current dual narrative (one the GOPe leadership want to say publicly and one they wish to keep hidden).
Back in June 2014 Speaker John Boehner was only two days away from calling up the vote on the Senate “gang-of-eight†amnesty bill, when House Majority Leader Eric Cantor was defeated in the Virginia Primary.
Mario Diaz Balart along with Paul Ryan and Luis V. Gutierrez were in secret negotiations throughout the spring/summer of 2014 planning the pathway for comprehensive immigration reform. John Boehner asked Kevin McCarthy to “whip the house†and identify if they had votes for passage...
However, later that same night the results from the 2014 Virginia primary showed an unknown conservative outsider, Dave Brat, had defeated (primaried) Eric Cantor. At 7:00pm Tuesday night the first word went out that Cantor had lost.
So this hidden narrative within the 2016 Republican State of the Union Rebuttal should come as no surprise. Comprehensive Immigration Reform is the GOPe agenda they continue to hide from the electorate.
GOPe strikes out again!
Rinse Prius wants his head on a pike?
They really suck
Who would vote for any candidate backed by the Amnesty wing of the GO?. Not me. I will write in a conservative’s name.
If you think you can see “amnesty” in those phrases, then you’re a believe in emanating penumbras. Of course, there are those who believe that anything short of deportation is amnesty.

Thanks. I did a search but found nothing.
According to some blogger using a screen name?
Yeah, Princess Di was abducted by Aliens and forced to mate with Prince to produce Justin Bieber.
The GOP as usual are a pack of liars,
entitled, EXEMPT, and supportive of TREASON,
secret ObamaTRADE, murderous ObamaCARE,
and every coverup including the IRS attacks
begun by McCain.
The GOP are scum, and deservedly hated.
To do this was utter insanity; it’s going to completely blow up in their faces as the main stream media get their teeth into this. Nonetheless, par for the course with this whole deal where Haley spends her time attacking Trump and supporting Obama policies rather than attacking Obama’s failures and lies.
I really wonder who’s behind this whole SOU response, because it’s one of the most fuched up, ill-considered, self-destructive, self-hating moves I think I’ve ever seen the GOPe pull.
You’re welcome.
If the material in the OP is the real deal, the corrupt Washington cartel is not only talking out of both sides of its mouth, but in different languages nonetheless.
Call your elected congresscritters and ask their opinions on this crap.
Infuriating!!
Well Rubio got away with doing exactly this, so she had precedent on her side.
Rubio even had all these defenders on this site while he was promising amnesty at La Raza events.
These turds are going to make me vote for Trump just so we can clear out the garbage in the party apparatus.
Isnt this something the Palestinians do all the time?
In English: give us all the land we demand and we will possibly support peace.
In Arabic: no matter what, drive Israel into the sea.
