Boehner spokesman to Obama: Don’t mess up immigration effort
WaPo ^ | January 29, 2013 at 3:47 pm | Rosalind S. Helderman

A spokesman for House Speaker John A. Boehner warned President Obama Tuesday not to derail bipartisan efforts to overhaul immigration laws by pushing more liberal proposals than those under consideration in Congress.

“There are a lot of ideas about how best to fix our broken immigration system,” spokesman Brendan Buck said in a statement, responding to Obama’s Las Vegas speech on immigration. “Any solution should be a bipartisan one, and we hope the President is careful not to drag the debate to the left and ultimately disrupt the difficult work that is ahead in the House and Senate.”

Here's another example of why Boehner is a failure and will be a failure. His spokesman uses liberal talking points: "our broken immigration system". Really?

What exactly is broken about the immigration system? The main problem I see is that the current laws are not being enforced.

The problems with the current laws are never, ever mentioned. First, the law was changed to favor immigrants, putting the benefit to Americans and the United States by immigration has been lost.

Mark Levin pointed out last night how Eugene McCarthy and other liberals said that the US economy can not compete in the world on the basis of importing low cost (low wage) labor. But that's exactly what we're doing.

Allowing 10's of millions of foreigners and foreign governments determine the number of illegal aliens in our country is insane.

Boehner needs to change the template, not embrace it. He's a loser, he doesn't know what battle he's fighting. My suspicion is really that Boehner's on the other side. That he's losing on purpose, because he doesn't agree with conservative/libertarian positions.

Here's more obvious proof that illegals getting the vote will be a problem :
The Dems wont accept a bill without it. It is their #1 demand, they know who these folks will vote for otherwise it wouldnt be their non negotiable item.

All this smoke about Obama disagreeing on border protection is just a scam to get us to line up with Rubio, MCcain and R party leaders by making us think they are fighting Obama.
This is just a scam to change the story on FNC and talk radio aways from the drawbacks of amnesty.

Obama will gladly sign any bill with ‘path to voting ‘ in it.
So I say tell O that ‘path to voting’ is not on the table. Republicans should take that stand and see Dems scream.

Ink’s probably already dry on the bill in the backroom. You can pretty much bet on it.

Exactly, and the GOP is in on the scam just as much as Barry. They claim that they’ve we’ll have border security before we make citizens of 20 million new Democrat voters, but there is nothing in their bill to stop Barry from offering it immediately. Only a commission that can offer a ‘recommendation’—which you know was put in there only to try and fool us.

Boehner has to be the dumbest a-hole to ever hold that position.


You are wrong. Boehner is simply the “new-age” kinder, gentler, “in touch with themselves,” sensitive, diverse, and neutered male that is the typical Republican of today.

He’s simply doing his part to maintain harmony between the free people and the communists. You just gotta give him credit where credit is due.

Hispanic pressure groups---"Voto Latino" AND other latino groups lobbying Congres for amnestys----- need immediate investigation:

(1)to determine the scope and dimension of Voto Latino and other Hispo/lobbying groups using pressure tactics on Congress (a violation of US law).

(2) Hispo/lobbying groups and Voto Latino's exchanging votes for amnesty (a violation of US law).

(3) Hispo/lobbying groups and Voto Latino's sources of funding---whether tax dollars are illegally funding legislative initiatives, and, whether foreign countries are funding their activities.

(4) whether Voto Latino is using hate-mongering against amnesty opponents to force a vote.

PARA-MILITARY DEMOCRATS A RELIC OF CIVIL WAR Carpetbaggers---Northern invaders into the South ----were prominent in politics until 1875, but nearly all left under pressure from the Red Shirts and White Liners -----white paramilitary organizations, then-described as "the military arm of the Democratic Party", working openly to violently overthrow Republican rule, using intimidation and assassination to turn Republicans out of office and suppress freedmen's (former slaves) voting.

The Republican sheriff of Yazoo, Mississippi, received a brief flurry of national attention when insurgent white Democrats took over the county government and forced him to flee. (WIKI)

================================================

FREEPER ACTION MEMO In 1875, Hiram Revels, a Mississippi Republican--and the first African-American US Senator--wrote to then-Pres Ulysses S. Grant denouncing Northern invaders into the post-Civil War south for manipulating the Black vote for personal benefit, and for keeping alive wartime hatreds. (WIKI)

We need to get someone with integrity----like Cong Allen West (not reelected)----- to write letters to his colleagues, and to the media.

Cong West needs to do the following:

(1) decry the agitation and intimidation tactics being used by latino groups,

(2) expose latinos using hatemongering for personal gain,

(3) emphasize the illegalities WRT threateing the US Congress, and,

(4) precpitate investigations into fraud.

Is Mexico friend or foe?

EXCERPT Scary Times in the Texas Valley: Ask old timers about the “WW 11 days” in South Texas and you’ll get assorted stories and tales, enough to fill a book.....South Texas was a hot-bed of conspiracy theories, real and present dangers, and a fear of direct war time threat. Apparently the concerns were not without foundation.

For one, the political climate in neighboring Mexico was extremely volatile. Agents of the German war machine were known to be active throughout Mexico (with the knowledge and consent of the Mexican govt?).

Nazi Germany was the leading importer of Mexican oil, taking just over half of their annual production....... To counter, American oil and gas production in Texas and Louisiana was elevated. Port Isabel's large oil refinery was a shipping point for fuel headed to the war, and was considered a possible target for German U-boat shelling or even a shore scurry. (Hat tip to FReeper Grampa Dave for posting the full article.)

==============================================

I guess when Texas Gov Perry was honored by Mexico for giveaways to illegals---and when he told nay-saying Rep primary voters we didn't have a heart----he knew n-o-t-h-i-n-g about Texas-Mexico military history (/snix).

RE :”Nice take.”

Take ‘path to voting’ off the table and Dems will scream.
All this enforcement talk by Rubio and McCain is to just distract us from the ‘path to voting’ that Dems demand and these RINOs caved early on.

That Darn Obama doesnt want to protect the borders. Thanks goodness we have Rubia to stand up to him

Offer no freebees and no voting and see how many sign up!

Rubio is engaging in very deceptive, sweet sounding talk, attempting to convince recalcitrant Americans that illegals are "conservatives," and that Rubio, McCain, Bohner are fighting Obama on this. Truth is----the key to amnesty is voting by hate-mongering latino pressure groups. That translates into (1) a permanent Dem party, and, (2) US foreign aid zillions to the corrupt Third World.

Sure would like to see Rubio's emails, cell phone records, and the like----to see who in the Third World is giving him orders.

The salivating federales see a Pres Rubio as their ticket to untold riches----as the dispenser of US tax dollars. The playbook is already in-place---Rubio hired a neocon for his campaign.

The cunning pukeneos are masters at duping US presidents and blanketing America-hating hellholes with tax dollars.

Vote-crazed pols are concerned only w/ getting entrenched in office, and achieving higher office, on the backs of mainstream Americans-—using MSM Americans for their personal gain.

Fugeddabait.

We have to scare the beejezus out of ‘em-—let the creeps know WE KNOW what they’re up to.

It’s appalling that a few narcissistic pols can corrupt a Nation-—making unconscionable demands on the citizenry.

Allowing law-breakers and foreign countries to exert a stranglehold on a free country is NOT what the Founders intended.

Over at the Voto Latino websight Maria Teresa Kumar is president and she has been on MSNBC praising McCain/Rubio and politely told Ed Schulz not to criticize them on TV for their motives as long as they are working to get more(create) Latino voters, err earned legalization, justice.

About Voto Latino

Cant their families unite back in the 3rd world nations they came from?

Let’s face it, this is nothing more than a ‘pandering for votes’ campaign.

El Rushbo has an amendment to this amnesty proposal that would suit me just fine - “withhold voting rights to the illegals for 25 years”.

RE :”El Rushbo has an amendment to this amnesty proposal that would suit me just fine - “withhold voting rights to the illegals for 25 years”.

Yep, that will give them time to establish those businesses that Rubio claims they will create (HA-HA) after they get amnesty, before they vote.

I am not esp a Rush fan but anyone can see that this past election showed that illegals will vote D, not R as McCain and Rubio are hinting at in interviews.

Why else would Dems (O, reid, Pelosi, ..) say their voting rights is the one thing that is non -negotiable if they were not sure they would vote D??

Right on. It’s not about the bleating ... “oh, the humanity of it blah, blah, blah.” It’s 1,000% about getting the votes to keep the Rats in power. The 25 year voting exemption should be non-negotiable for the Pubs to go along with this pipe dream.
