John McCain & Lindsey Graham Want You to Know Boston Bombings Wont Slow Immigration Reform By Becket Adams | Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Friday released a statement saying that despite the week's events with the Boston Marathon bombing, it won't deter or slow their efforts to pass comprehensive immigration reform.
Here's their statement, released before the capture of 19-year-old suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev:
In the wake of this week's terrorist attack in Boston, some have already suggested that the circumstances of this terrible tragedy are justification for delaying or stopping entirely the effort for comprehensive immigration reform.
In fact the opposite is true: Immigration reform will strengthen our nation's security by helping us identify exactly who has entered our country and who has left - a basic function of government that our broken immigration system is incapable of accomplishing today. The status quo is unacceptable.
We have 11 million people living in the shadows, which leaves this nation vulnerable to a myriad of threats. That is all the more reason why comprehensive immigration reform is so essential.

Surely South Carolina will dump this fruit.
Millions and millions. I was recently looking at the figures for Microsoft, who Grover Norquist Lobbies for. Cpac's Suhail Khan is director of external affairs.
[snip]Microsoft - TOP ISSUES LOBBIED, 2012
1. Taxes - HINT: Norquist & ATR aren't lobbying for higher taxes for Bill Gates!
2. Immigration
3. Telecommunications
4. Computers & Information Tech
5. Copyright, Patent & Trademark
Do you know who his biggest lobbyists are.....The K St. goons who facilitate his liberal agenda? That might surprise you.
[SNIP]Yesterday, Grover Norquists weekly Americans for Tax Reform conclave was the venue for an announcement by Suhail Khan that he was becoming director for external affairs for Microsoft.
Khans transformation into a corporate lobbyist comes amidst rising concerns in conservative circles about his longstanding family and personal ties to the Muslim Brotherhood (MB or Ikhwan) in America and his positions in favor of such MB priorities as building the Ground Zero mosque, closing Guantanamo Bay.... dissembling about shariah, etc.
THAT would be the same radical Islam apologist Suhail Khan, CPAC organizer & board member AND Grover Norquist, CPAC organizer , founder of the Islamic Institute & Microsoft lobbyist, friend of the American Conservative Union...who happens to also be for AMNESTY.
An article explains how the Norquist scam works:
Take General Electric, which faced withering, bipartisan criticism last year when it was revealed that the company, thanks to a myriad of tax credits and other tax subsidies, had paid no federal income taxes in 2010. Norquist was there to defend the company in a chat with The Washington Post, arguing absurdly that removing billions in tax rebates to GE would just be a tax on consumers. Cutting GEs tax credits, after all, would break the Norquist pledge.
In a recently posted 2011 giving report, General Electric says it made a contribution of $50,000 to Norquists foundation that year.
Consider thatGE gave more to Norquist in 2011 than it paid the IRS for income taxes in 2010, a year the corporation made $14.2 billion in profits.
Then he sends out volumes of fund raisers for ATR and his various other conservative sounding 'non profits' to loyal conservatives so they can send their money to him to facilitate the likes of GE and Microsoft! And IT'S all legal! Lying and using US citizens to bring about amnesty to profit our enemies is just another day at the office for Norquist and Khan.
Bottom line? Conservatives, you are paying for your own demise while Grover & Khan are raking in your hard earned money at CPAC and the ACU! They don't care about poor aliens, and they don't care about YOU!

Why is it that these guys [McCain, Graham, Rubio, et al] spend more time ‘representing’ illegals than they do representing their constituents?
Best guess comes from a Judge Judy quote: “Follow the money.”
Maybe opponents need to be checking into these guys’ offshore bank accounts.
Idiots! Please South Carolina get rid of this turd!!! PLEASE!!!
******************************************************************
Our South Carolina brothers and sisters will need some (financial) help from us out-of-staters. You can bet your boots that Little Lindsey has a massive war chest—much of it funded by out of state lobbyists and interests.
So, when the time is right, please provide financial support (give til it hurts—or your spouse complains) to Lindsey’s 2014 primary opponent(s).
Let’s give this little weasel a retirement to a bathhouse of his choice.
What does that mean?
Most of the criminal aliens I know of are anything but in the shadows. They are out, working for cash, using the ER for their health insurance, driving without a license or auto insurance, having a ball.
They must think we're stupid. Clearly they're the real fools.
I’m hoping us SC voters can team up and put Linda Gayham out of office next year. We need to get started right away. Gayham has over $5 million to buy the election.
screw open borders. screw McCain and Graham and their RINO crap
Just damn. The house of cards ... stacked against us.
We have 11 million people living in the shadows, which leaves this nation vulnerable to a myriad of threats. That is all the more reason why comprehensive immigration reform is so essential.
Both of the bombers were here legally, fully out of the shadows. Once was a naturalized citizen. So I guess we know how immigration strengthen our nation's security.
The DemocRATs want them to stay right where they are.
Find yourselves a constitutional conservative that Sarah can back, and you’ll have your support nationwide!
That there’s your homework.
We’re likely SOL on her working againt McCain, for obvious reasons, unless she sees light for our future. Time will tell, there.
“Just damn. The house of cards ... stacked against us.”
BIG time!

BTTT!
Illegal aliens are not in the shadows, they march in the streets demanding “rights”. They scream in a foreign language at the Capitol. They make us press 1 for English.
Deport on contact with police. Control the borders. When they show up in the ER arrest them.
What does that mean?
Most of the criminal aliens I know of are anything but in the shadows. They are out, working for cash, using the ER for their health insurance, driving without a license or auto insurance, having a ball. Too true.
G-d Almighty bless and protect Pamela Gellar!
The traitor Norquist is hoping the crocodile will eat him last...
