All you Romney hating bigots should just shut up!

Mitt is perfect, he is handsome, smart, and can save the world with a mere thought...

He is also dreamy...

So dreamy...

(sigh)...

Any man the gorgeous has to be a great conservative, he just has to!

(pout...)

“Do you really find it necessary to be such a flaming RINO apologist?”

LOL, I’m guessing you are quite young. When an adult castigates rudeness, the kids talk right back.

Tancredo for sure, but perhaps also the personality-free Duncan Hunter.

Define “reform”

does reform include “BUILD THE $%@$! WALL”?
we can support that reform.

does reform include keeping legal immigration LEGAL?

does reform include keeping the 1996 outlawing of anchor babies? (custody follows the parents not the child)

We DO support reform, just not amnesty in the name of reform.

I'm guessing you're quite full of yourself.

You're a legend in your own mind.

“If all the border states simply did what Oklahoma did, it would be settled. Heck, they have NO illegals there anymore, and they didn’t deport anyone. The illegals simply left and went back to Tejas.”

Yes, they did. Our lawnmower illegal just called this past weekend and guess what? He’s coming back to America. Seems word has gotten out that Obama will give amnesty. We loved our “illegal alien” friends and was sad that they went back to Mexico last year...but, the thought that they are coming back now due to Obama is going to do a world of hurt on our already hurting economy!!

No, sorry, but I have sensed for far too long that there is too much mush-headed, weak-minded drivel infecting this site. And the truth is, you get people’s attention when you smack them between the eyes. We accomplish nothing on this site by simply allowing every mindless, left-influenced, uneducated thought to go unchallenged. In case you didn’t know, we are very close to losing this country to people who are playing the game far more aggressively than we are. It’s time we toughened up and answered back.

Define “reform”

Reform = Amnesty every time it is used in the context that Mitt is using here, whether it be Bush or McCain or Lindsey Graham.

Dirtboy, since you seem to know his position on immigration reform, why don't you tell us all what it is, since this article does not. And then please, tell us how you would handle the same problem.

And you think Romney has some sort of antidote? It would be McCain the 2nd except he’s better preserved.

Well, call me rude, but when someone with no authority over me “castigates me”, I usually tell them to buzz off.

Being officious and dictatorial is pretty darn rude.

>> Romney’s views on the subject changed with the political winds.

You know, I could get behind a politician whose views were coming into line with the prevailing political winds, if they were the correct winds.

The political winds I feel on *my* face are a giant disgusted revolt against socialism, global-warmism, islamsism, and UN-ism. I think a politician who GETS IT and takes a strong stand against these things and for personal responsiblity, accountability, and American sovereignty would win the electoral college as well as the popular vote.

What is puzzling to me about Romney (and not a few other GOP pols) is that they seem to sense a DIFFERENT wind. Where is it coming from? I think they’re doing so much Bambi butt-kissing that they’re trapped in his fartstream, mistaking it for the prevailing political wind.

No antidote, just opining and unless our side gets a perfect candidate (i.e. Jesus Christ) Zero will win again in 2012.

I think Mitt would join those anarchists and snti-capitalists protesting at the G-20, if he thought it would help him get elected POTUS.

Actually, Romney has made a good statement here...Republicans have been demagogued to death on immigration reform and it has hurt electorally...it needs to be resolved one way or the other (I note that the article doesn’t expand on his statement and give any details (edited?))...magritte
