“House republicans better stop this or they are through.”
Just like after the other few dozen times times people said that and then voted for a liberal abortion loving gay marriage gun controller?
Like that through’? No. They aren’t. Look at the threads on conservative sites with all the people still making excuses.
It has mostly been a choice of dweedle-dumb and dweedle-dumber. We haven’t had a decent candidate for President since Ronald Reagan and even he was not perfect (remember the original amnesty, deficit spending etc.). Yes, I will continue to vote for the best choice possible in the next election cycle. The best chance we have to affect the process has always been in the primaries. I will try to help there.
I say that the Republicans are through, and quite possibly the long-term viability of our Republic, if they vote for amnesty is because no country can absorb 60 million (the press keeps saying 13 million, but with family members and the mad rush of illegals now running to the border the final number will 3 or 4 times the current estimates) new citizens all at once. It requires time and a willingness on the part of the new citizens to become Americans for immigration to be successful. In the case of this proposed amnesty, no matter what they call it, we have neither.
I say the Republicans will be through because, politically, this new group will most likely vote 80 percent democrat. The Republicans’ betrayal (just one in a long-line of many such betrayals) of hard-working, tax-paying patriots who will have to pay for the social programs to support a large portion of these new arrivals will cause many in our group to not vote or even start a third party movement. So, the Republicans had better stop this now if they want to survive as a party. So scared they are of projected demographics that they are willing to gamble our country’s future just to get a few days of positive press.
