" By "paying taxes," Rubio means"filing a tax return and getting a payment back from the government in the form of the earned income tax credit." Another term for what Rubio calls "paying taxes" is "receiving welfare" --which newly legalized illegals will start receiving right away under Rubio's plan. The only tax they'll pay is the same tax they pay now: sales tax. But, incomprehensibly, Rubio swore up and down that the newly legalized illegal immigrants won't get government benefits:"And then they don't qualify for any federal benefits. This is an important point. No federal benefits, no food stamps, no welfare, no Obamacare." How on Earth does Rubio plan to enforce this "important point"? Just three weeks ago, the U.S. Senate voted down a proposal to prevent illegal immigrants from receiving benefits under Obamacare. At the time, Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez sneered at Republicans opposing Obamacare for illegals, saying,"This is not a great way to try to do your outreach to the Hispanic and immigrant community." Forcing Republicans to spend the next two decades arguingthat poor Hispanic children shouldn't have access to government benefits like health care and food programs sounds like a terrific way to win over the Hispanic vote! Is it going to be easier or harderfor Republicans to deny welfare to 20 million newly legalized illegal aliens than it is for them to simply saythat people who have broken our laws should not be on a fast-track to citizenship? Also, is Rubio planning to stop his newly legalized illegal aliens from having children? The children of illegal aliens become automatic citizens under our current insane interpretation of the 14th Amendment. (It seems that, after the Civil War, what the framers of the 14th Amendment had at the top of their agendawas not invalidating the Dred Scott decision and confirming the citizenship of former slaves, but ensuring that, a century hence,the children of any foreigners who manage to sneak into the country illegally and give birthwould become full-fledged U.S. citizens.) As I've noted before, Hispanic women have a higher illegitimate birthrate than any other ethnic group in the country, including blacks. Currently, 71 percent of illegal immigrant households with children collect federal benefits. In California -- which will be America if Rubio's plan goes through -- 82 percent of households headed by an illegal immigrant are on welfare, as are 61 percent of households headed by legal immigrants,according to the March 2011 Current Population Survey by the Center for Immigration Studies. If you think Republicans are Hispandering now, wait until the children of 20 million illegal aliens start to vote. Rubio's amnesty isn't just bad for America, it's the end of America. "

And people are trying to tell me that Marco Rubio is a "Conservative" ?

I was never a Rubio fan, because his whole argument for his political future was his biography (and not policy). Rubio was all "up from immigrant" success story. In the year after he was elected, Rubio was invisible. Rand Paul was making a name for himself with policies and action. Rubio was nowhere to be seen.

This year, Rubio steps forward to take his place on the national stage. His forum? The Gang of Eight. Rubio came out and told us that not seccuring the border first was a "deal breaker", when questioned about his association with Schumer, McCain and Grahamnesty.

Now, the deal is out, Rubio is on board with instant amnesty and no border security.

Rubio has destroyed himself politically. He's destroyed his credibility. He's lieing, lieing, lieing.

I've spoken with Rubio's office three times (and several other Senate offices, too) regarding the much talked about back ground checks they will perform on applicants for citizenship.

My question to them is whether cross checking voter registration roles will be a part of this process. It is a question they won't answer, so obviously it will not.

Therefore, in their eyes it is not only OK to cross our border illegally it is also OK to illegally vote in our elections which in turn denies honest American citizens their lawful vote.
