You are on the money. The democrats want this issue for the 2014 elections. If they can get it thru the senate. They know it is a loser in the house.
It is time we play the demos game. After twice being promised spending cuts for tax increases(Reagan and Bush I). Our position should be absolute border security with a promise of amnesty sometime in the future.
Still think given the current situation, grassroots push for EV is the only option available for people to make a difference.
Yes, they do.
But it is Win-Win Democrats, either way.
If the House rejects Amnesty, then Dems do their “Racist” chant for the next 12 months.
If Amnesty passes the House, then La Raza and the ACLU will go into lawsuit hyper drive.
Every Conservative “protection” written into the bill - things like the 13 year delayed citizenship and welfare denial - will be overturned by Leftist federal judges.
Try to imagine a televised debate in 2014 where some Republican congressman explains why starving immigrant children should not get Food Stamps!
That will not happen!
If Amnesty passes, the GOP-e will give the illegals and the Democrats everything they want, including the right to vote by the 2016 election.
