Alex Conant @AlexConant: "We haven't had a cohort of people living permanently in US without full rights of citizenship since slavery".
Mind you, he isnt talking only about illegal immigrants. Hes talking about any non-citizen who lives in this country permanently, including millions of Green Card holders.
And by implication:
Conn Carroll @conncarroll: For those of you keeping score at home, Rubio spokesman @AlexConant just compared all Schumer-Rubio opponents to slave owners
If this is Team Rubios strategy for winning over conservatives, good luck with that.

I have always said Rubio is just a young McCain or Lindsey Gramnesty waiting to hit RINO puberty.
This is going to be goodbye to progressive politicians posing as conservatives.
1. Christie
2. Rubio
Oh boy, this was big , big, big news when it came out several years ago. He was exposed by people I don’t like, Univision - nevertheless, it was true. I saw the interview in Spanish. I found it horrifying - first, the lie, second the attempted cover-up (I didn’t know/remember the exact date my parents left Cuba) and finally, that out of a population of a million refugees, the only one to look for a national political career is a ringer.
I have been referring to it in numerous posts, but people here chose to ignore me, because they wanted to believe in a Magic Hispanic who was going to win over other Hispanics.
Trust me, it happened, it was a big news story, and the fact that no one on FR knows about it is an indication of how divorced from reality they are when it comes to the Hispanics they think can be won over to our side.
I didn’t put it on breaking news — someone else did. Second of all its not only his press secretary but his chief of staff who is a big time amnesty guy as well -— practically most of Rubio’s staff are Bushies and Romney people which means either Rubio aporoves of GOP elite moves or is being influenced by these people heavily. Either way, Rubio is a idiot and is losing steam lying his way through a terrible bill
It is all over the internet, the NYT, Florida media, etc.
Just google Marco Rubio parents Cuba Castro and you will find it all.
Here is one link:
http://articles.washingtonpost.com/2011-10-20/politics/35278071_1_cuba-several-times-marco-rubio-fidel-castro
I remember that controversy about his parents. I also remember all the TEA backing he got when the SHTF about the credit card bills for waxing, etc. This his payback. OK, fine. Never again.
Look you can label Rubio because you want Paul but the fact is Paul also wants so called amnesty, personally I;m sick of both sides attacking each other and trying to say Rubio said this or that and visa versa.
We should be looking at Clinton and Libya and her tenure not what a dopey staffer said.
We all know no matter what grade the staffer is will say stupid things and the candidate is not in agreement or they are.
Question Rubio on this and then it makes news.
We can go back and firth all day with Rubio’s staffer said this and Paul said that.
Fact is both of them want some kind of immigration bill, fact is it will happen and the question is what can we get out of this?
As for trying to pin Rubio and Bush’s, well not sure what state you’re in but around here in one of the most republican counties in this state of FL we do not attach Bush and Rubio, only on ere by a few who do.
Again lets look at Clinton and the left, and I’ll look forward to your next thread about say Paul and his homosexual marriage or immigration bill or any other thread.
Got to go now, work to do.
Thanks for writing. Anyone who would lie about their family that way is totally shameless.
Slaves alright, me, you, every tax payer in this country who are FORCED to pay for the services politicians are giving out like candy to ILLEGALS via taxation.
The illegals can pound sand and go home and the easiest way to make that happen is to quit handing out free services.
"For the answer to this riddle, we'll set the WABAC machine for November 2nd, 2010..." |
Florida Sen.-elect Marco Rubio announced his top staff, which included three former Romney campaign hands. Sally Canfield, who served as Romney's policy adviser, will be Rubio's legislative director and chief policy adviser; Joe Pounder, who was in charge of rapid response for Romney, will be Rubio's communications director; and Alex Burgos, who directed specialty media for Romney, will serve as director of media affairs for Rubio." -- RCP/Time, Jan. 4, 2011 |
I want to say a word to all those who continue to think Rubio is a good guy...just naive
BULL!
He was handpicked for this job by Norquist and Conda (and likely Rove/the Bushs). The financing of this sham is coming out of unions, microsoft, hijacked tea parties and the KOCH Bros. who finance Norquist, ATR, Cato.
IT IS ALWAYS FOLLOW THE MONEY!
Our problem is most GOP, and many I was being pelted by last night here on FR, still hangs on to their sacred cows for dear life...like the Kochs, ATR, CPAC, Cato,Marco Rubio!
They dont care about you! WAKE UP!
WHO IS CESAR CONDA?
[snip]Then rides in the great Tea Party Hispanic savior, Marco Rubio to save us. Because he looks more like the opposition. He speaks the language of the NEW constituency! Hes the GOPs latest token trojan horse.
Who is really behind Marco Rubio, and what do they want? The Tea Party citizens thought it was them!!! He talked the talk, and fooled us all. No, he hasnt been taken over by Obama and the left, as far as we know. He is part of the enemy within the right. And for the past 30 years, it is always the same players. They are lobbyists who our legislators hire to write our legislation because most of our elected officials let them in exchange for campaign dollars. It is ALWAYS follow the money.
Even John Ross willingly sacrificed his own people to keep his power and to hold out for more federal dollars for Cherokee lands. The Cherokee Tribe was destroyed because they were incapable of realizing who their real enemies were. It appears we are no more enlightened than the savages. We have no excuse for our ignorance, other than BLIND loyalty to sacred cows who should have been hamburger by now!
Meet Cesar Conda, chief of staff, Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., close associate and fellow amnesty pusher of Grover Norquist, who last week called all of us who want our borders secured, Bitter enders, He might as well have called us Savages.
Here is detailed some of the undermining of immigration law these two have accomplished over 3 decades, including working closely with Stephen Moore of the Cato Institute, Conda circulated a statement against Prop. 187 of California in the nineties. The race baiting they pulled on Alan Simpson when he tried to enforce the borders in the 90s was nothing but disgusting.
Conda, an immigration lawyer, was Vice President Dick Cheneys chief domestic policy adviser. After leaving there, Conda went to work for George Soros on the editorial advisory board of the Soros publication, The International Economy Magazine.
Even amnesty pushers on the left like Conda!
[snip] I think Cesar is the right man for the job, said Frank Sharry, founder and executive director of the pro-immigration reform group Americas Voice. Rubio is really lucky to have Cesar Conda as his chief of staff. Conda...has been working on the issue since the early 1990s when he was part of a group of young, libertarian-minded, pro-immigration conservatives. His government experience runs deep: He worked for former Sen. Spencer Abraham, R-Mich., and was an aide to Vice President Dick Cheney. He also spent time in the private sector as a lobbyist and analyst for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and founded the Washington office of a consulting firm called Navigators Global.
Conda was also involved with The National Foundation for American Policy, a Newt Gingrich group. Dont be fooled, Newt is all about amnesty and has always been!
Started in 2003, the National Foundation for American Policy (NFAP) is a non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to public policy research on trade, immigration, and other issues of national importance. Its Advisory Board members include ....Cesar Conda.... and other prominent individuals.
This statement sums up the Rubio/Conda relationship:
The White Houses lawyer-friendly draft shows that it has outsourced the formation of immigration policy to the American Immigration Lawyers Association, said Camarota. Some of the eight senators also employ staffers who are trained immigration lawyers or who have lobbied for the immigration association before. In 2003, for example, Cesar Conda, Rubios chief of staff, lobbied the White House on behalf of the lawyers association....Given Sen. Rubios role in a smear campaign [using SPLC talking points] against pro-enforcement groups, said Steve Camarota, the research director at the Center for Immigration Studies, it does raise the question of how serious he is about enforcement.
Conda worked as an advocate for the immigration lawyers association.
As a founding partner of a lobbying firm, Navigators Global, he attended a 2003 meeting in the White House to promote a policy favored by the lawyers group, which stands to gain enormously from any law that expands or complicates immigration law.
In the late 1990s, Conda also worked as the legislative director for one-term GOP Sen. Spencer Abraham. In 2000, Abraham lost his Michigan Senate seat after NumbersUSA highlighted Abrahams role in defeating a bipartisan immigration reform bill that would have curbed legal and illegal immigration.
During that 1996 immigration debate, Abraham opposed an employee-identification plan in the bill that would have required and helped employers reject applicants who were not allowed to legally work in the United States.
Conda had a part in the expensive bank bail outs.
At this lobbying outfit, Cesar Conda is one of the lobbyists on the Citigroup account. Previously, DC Navigators was one of AIGs go-to firmsuntil the insurance company halted its lobbying efforts last fall under congressional pressure. AIG, which has received $182 billion from the government, including $40 billion in TARP funds, spent more than $9 million on lobbying in 2008
Conda was a lobbyist for private prisons who love open borders and government $$$ to incarcerate illegal aliens.
They also now have a paid lobbyist working in the office of a Republican Senator at the forefront of the immigration debate, in a state with major immigration issues. Take for example the chief of staff to young Republican superstar Marco Rubio, Cesar Conda. Conda still maintains ties to a powerful lobbying firm in Florida that has lobbied for the GEO Group. In fact, he still maintains partial ownership, and was paid between $50,000-$100,000 by the firm after he became Rubios chief of staff.. So hes still being paid by companies like the GEO Group while working as the number-one guy to a US Senator. So the GEO Group has revenues of nearly $2 billion per year, much of which comes from the federal government as payment for detaining immigrants. It has spent more than $5 million in lobbying and political contributions in the past 8 years
Remember when we warned the Tea Party about getting involved with Dick Armeys Freedom works because he has always been pro amnesty??.....
Cesar Conda is a senior fellow at Freedom Works and an editorial advisory board member of International Economy Magazine. He is a volunteer policy advisor to the Mitt Romney presidential campaign.
Conda actually states here that the Gang of 8 plan isnt AMNESTY!! You need no more than that to know you are being CONNED BIG TIME!
Think of it! illegal aliens vote democrat. Fact. They believe it is Obama working for them. All these GOP open border amnesty purveyors like Conda get no credit for the decades of work theyve done on the behalf of foreign nationals. Instead, Obama gets all their glory. Ignorance never changes. And History repeats itself.

We have to preserve the cultural heritage of America. If we fail to do so, our collapse into some form of "New World Order"--being pushed for decades by different factions on the Left--will become virtually inevitable. (The other alternative will be social chaos.)

Look, I’m not for Rubio or Paul. The people I like are Sarah and senators like Cruz
Well I am not a Paulbot. I guess I’ll just have to admit I didn’t know his position.
I like Rand better than Ron. He doesn’t have as many loose screws as Ron.
What astounded me was when he was on Rush’s program and Rush called him a true conservative.
WTH is going on?
If dubious doesn’t fire this lib idiot, rubio should resign.
I agree. If these people still have their positions after this, Rubio is going to prove to be a sham. I won’t yet dismiss him because he is rock solid on virtually every issue but this, however, crap like this to demean and demagogue the very people who got him into office will make me sit home next time.
Well I guess it’s the same. Democrats supported slavery just like they support illegals.
