Paul does not support the gang of 8 plan.

No, but he, like they, use many wiggle-words that muddles his position.

But, hey, even Speaker Boehner says he doesn't support the Gang of 8 bill, so he is going to do his own plan.

Bottom line -- Paul stated that he might vote for the Gang of 8 plan or he might not.

Better news, perhaps: Sen. Menendez says they do not have the 60 votes needed to pass it anyway.

Bad news, perhaps: Sen. Reid is threatening to change the Senate rules to allow 50 votes to pass legislation.

Same arguments, same rhetoric, essentially the same bill we had to fight against several times during GWBush administration.

Any portion can be nitpicked, but the over legislation is the same -- a way to legalize millions.
