I saw Rubio on Hannity Friday,
On it FNC Libertarian babe Michelle Fields asked Rubio about the taxpayer costs of legalizing so many poor unskilled workers.
Rubio lying as usual claimed that they will not get one dollar of taxpayer money and instead will all start paying taxes.
No one called him out on that claim.
Rand Paul immigration ping!
Rand Paul is dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight. Better wake up soon RP.
Soon, he will be revealed to be as George W Bush is to George HW Bush: his father’s son.
Maybe if it were called “Immigration Repair” with supporting language true to the meaning, we might have something to contemplate.
ANY bill is one more foot in the door of acquiescence to lawlessness. There is no good bill that says anything other than “We SHALL build the fence.”
Anything short of deportation equals amnesty.
The claim that we can make these Trespassing Foreign Citizens ‘legal’ and then deny them voting rights is a steaming crock of excrement. Some judge will immediately strike that down as a denial of their rights.
One more point for everyone to consider: each amnestied illegal alien will be able to bring in their relatives. The 1986 illegals each brought in around 5, so the 1 1/2 million illegals quickly became 8 million people.
Using that experience as a guide, the “11 million” beneficiaries of the Treason Lobby’s new amnesty will mean 55 million immigrants.
And since the “11 million illegals” is really closer to 30 million illegal aliens we would be swamped with up to 150 million third worlders forever changing America’s demographics.
So "why are the RINO's supporting it" is the Ten million Vote question
that needs to be asked. I can hardly wait for the Lies and Spin.
So. The Senator is open to voting for the complete sellout of our national sovereignty, security, borders, independence, the rule of law, personal privacy, and ability to earn our daily bread without government permission.
Any politician who gives one ounce of aid and comfort to this will never get one ounce of my political support.
Secure the border, expand work visas, no new pathway to citizenship. Did I get that right?
Rand Paul supports Illegal Alien Amnesty....and his apologists will need to wake up
Cruz is somewhat phony in his small-bore opposition to the bill as well.
Better that we realize how totally we’ve been sold down the river even by our big-name, supposed tea party conservative heroes than to continue our delusions.
E.g.: GOP leadership in Congress new about the IRS tea party targeting long before losing in 2012, and they happily kept silent on it.
Kick the thieving-Mexican low-skilleds out, make the thieving ghettoRATs work for a living...for a change.
What a stupid cause for Rand to take up. Idiot.
Rand is triangulating on immigration, when he needs to be either leading or staying silent.
Just so we’re all clear on this: Rand Paul is “open” to voting for some version of an immigration bill that will never be brought to the floor of the Senate. He doesn’t support the bill that’s currently being hashed out, but does support something that no Democrats would support, and that Rubio would also oppose. Hmmmm, let’s see if we can all pass Politics 101.
1) We have a future presidential candidate in a year after which his party’s loss was blamed on a lack of outreach to Hispanic voters.
2) We have a bill that is not palatable to his potential base.
3) We have a media that loves nothing more than painting Republican pols as haters of immigrants.
4) Said politician comes out in favor of the concept of immigration reform, but compares the present bill to Obamacare. It just so happens that the bill in question is supported by a potential rival; one that he wants to stay on somewhat decent terms with on other issues.
5) Now he says he is open to voting for the concept, but on terms that mean those in his own party wouldn’t support it, and none of the Dems would.
This would be soooooooo confusing, except that it’s very simple. He has triangulated the issue. He is in favor of the broad concept, but only in ways that have zero chance of becoming law. It’s clever, it’s not principled in the least, and I guess we’ll see if it works for him. I predicted weeks ago that in the end Paul would end up loudly opposing the Senate bill. I’m sticking with that prediction.
