John McCain has suddenly changed his position on immigration! He also changed his name to "Tom Duncan Tancredo Hunter," danced the cha cha, dyed his hair purple, joined Cirque de Soleil, threatened to invade a sovereign nation (oh wait, that's Obama), endorsed setting up Murder Squads to assassinate, er, "capture or kill", people in other countries (oh wait, that's Obama, too), dressed like Marlene Dietrich, declared his love for Nancy Reagan, and then adopted all the children Angelina Jolie hasn't had time to get to.
All just a bit too little, too late. Won't he be surprised to find out we still won't vote for him and still think bad thoughts when we hear his name? Nice try though. For a pandering, patronizing self-obsessed loser who doesn't think much at all for the people of the United States. After all, if we secure the border, who will pick all that lettuce and dig the wells??
McCain changes course on immigration
WASHINGTON - Republican presidential hopeful John McCain on Thursday backed a scaled-down proposal that imposes strict rules to end illegal immigration but doesn't include a path to citizenship.
The move away from a comprehensive measure is an about-face for the Arizona senator, who had been a leading GOP champion of a bill that included a guest worker program and would have legalized many of the estimated 12 million illegal immigrants living in the U.S. It failed earlier this year.
"We can still show the American people that we are serious about securing our nation's border," McCain said in a statement, adding that the new bill would "provide an essential step toward achieving comprehensive reform in the future."
Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!! ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!
One last thought, with all that Manly Man talk from Barry Obama, I think it's pretty clear he's made the mistake of responding to a few of those "Add four more inches to your leadership skills" emails we all get. The problem, of course, is that you really don't get four more inches, you just get to look stupid.
McCain is lame.
Grahamensty is toast!
Well, either he changed his mind since the 17th, didn't tell his staff letter writers that he's changed his mind, or hasn't changed his mind and the WP/others, being DUmmie MSM, have got it wrong (again).
Take your pick. It's just another nail in an already closed coffin for me.
I will add another pejorative from a specific former moderate elite who would accuse from their gated community ... called us 'purists'!!!!!
Oh, he was already about 9th on the list of 10 candidates for me.
You are correct,sez write in Tam's article he still wants to work for comprhensive reform.
WOW! This lady nails it with a great big hammer, bless her! McPain was for it before he was against it. Phooey on McPain. I wish I lived in Arizona just so I could vote against him.
Well said Tammy.
Maverick, Lindsey, Kyl, Lott and McConnell can take a flying leap for all I care about their futures.
Besides, since we’ve been designated bigots by them I’m sure they don’t want our votes tainting their totals on election day anyway.
Does anyone know who may be thinking about stepping up to take on McCain in a Primary? Now is the time for a NAME !!
This was posted on townhall:
“Among other things, the bill makes being in the country illegally a criminal misdemeanor and toughens penalties for re-entering after being deported. It mandates an electronic system for employers to check workers’ citizenship status and requires illegal immigrants who commit a crime to be held in jail until they are deported.”
Question - what is being here illegally now (felony, misdemeanor or nothing)? I wonder what the impact of making it a misdemeanor will be? We sure don’t want any more illegals in jail or just fined for being here. I don’t get it.
