Rubio Stares Down the Right Over 'Undocumented Democrats'

National JournalBy Tim Alberta | National Journal – 5 hrs ago

Marco Rubio was not amused.

The senator from Florida had listened patiently as a panel of hand-picked conservatives, lined up across a long table at the front of the room, took turns speaking about the prospects of immigration reform. When discussion finally opened to the anxious, overflowing crowd of lawmakers at the Republican Study Committee's immigration summit, several were quick to critique their pro-reform colleagues – Rubio the headliner among them.

Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., argued they should be discussing a report by the Heritage Foundation's Robert Rector on the costs of amnesty. Rep. Scott Garrett, R-N.J., raised concerns about implementing an e-Verify system. But it was Rep. Michael Burgess, R-Texas, who got under Rubio’s skin.

Referencing a Jay Leno one-liner, Burgess questioned fellow conservatives about the wisdom of giving citizenship to "11 million undocumented Democrats." Laughter, some of it nervous, spread throughout the room. But not everyone found Burgess' crack funny. According to several people who attended the June 5th gathering, Rubio glared at Burgess.

Well, 30 million is a start. What with IRS giving freely tax credits for all the related children still in Latin America, by Amnesty we issue a call for everyone in all of Latin America who is not a politician or a banker to swarm to the USA. The understood offer is for eventual USA citizenship and huge IRS “refunds” for all of Latin America, and eventually anyone else in the world. I suppose this would mark the transition from Republic to Empire. Rome did it, sucked people from all the conquered territories to come to Rome and be subsidized.

The Stupid Psrty has become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Democrat Party. I think those lovingly termed RINOs are aware of the situation and are comfortable with it. They do not understand that they will be the first “defendants” in the inevitable show trials.

It appears that Rubio has become the Republican Obama regarding the Limbaugh Theorem, which states that Obama is not associated with his policies. “Oh, Rubio is such a nice guy, novice, being played by Chuck Schumer, the one with the reptilian smile. I disagree with his support of the amnesty bill, but I like him; he’s charismatic.”

“Marco’s just another ethnic hustler trying to advance his own career.”

I suspect he’ll be getting plenty of help from rove and the rest of the rino elites.

I do not support any program, idea, or philosophy that addresses the millions of illegal invaders into my country, in any other frame of mind than G. T. F. O., even at bayonet point, if necessary.

Over-stayed student visa, ig. Iranians before the downfall of the Shah. Corporate-sponsored H1b visas over-stayed, robbing Americans of work opportunities, and creating anchor babies, like Piyush ‘Bobby’ Jindal.

Any nationality that is here illegally needs to go.

ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION SOLUTION
1. lock down the borders
2. deport illegals as they appear
3. enforce existing laws
4. pass new laws and enforce them as needed

Unemployment’s high - people can’t find work - and Rubio wants to bring in an extra 11 million people yearning to take jobs and milk the system. Yeah, we’re impressed elites want a servant class in the US...

What has Rubio actually done in life other than run his mouth?

Why should anyone listen to anything he has to say?

"Senator" carries the power and importance, but the "Rubio" part? What does the "Rubio" part do other than use the "Senator" part against the country he claims as his?

He's working for his people, but with him, that means he's also working against the rest of US.

(What did they pay you Rush? Or did they just fool the old fool with a better fool?)

This is a scary snapshot of the degenerate Third World ---lying in wait----they would corrupt the melting pot---turn the land of the free into a hyphenated hellhole.

RUBIO IS A HYPHENATE FIRST, AN AMERICAN LAST
THIS SUCKER SEES REFORM AS A WAR OF "US" AGAINST "THEM"

AN OMINOUS HARBINGER OF THINGS TO COME Rubio's disdain and utter contempt for America----for conservatism----is intolerable.

Rubio is in league w/ the corrupt Third World's nefarious plans to undermine US ntl security and our freedoms.

Undocumented Democrats...

Man what a powerful choice of descriptor! Simply amazing.

That’s what they are. That is exactly what they are.

Slow path to progress for U.S. immigrants: 43% on welfare after 20 years<>Some meaningful welfare reform might help, too.

At least reduce benefit levels below the level of what working people makE.

Rubio can’t be this stupid and I believe he is not. Since he is not he can only be an evil scumbag. When he switches and formally becomes a Democrat not many Freepers will be surprised.

It's pretty simple - the banksters want a North American Union and the Amero to help them compete with Asia's wage levels. And they are exerting incredible pressure on the political classes to make it happen.

Rubio can tap dance all he wants and glare at his colleagues all he wants, but the issues are not about anything he says they are.

” Rubio is playing out a pre-written script that Obama gave him, his mission is to get this bill to Obama’s desk.

Rubio is not a “fellow traveler”...he is an outright traitor
to the USA.No better than Obama or Holder.

Because it needs to be repeated over and over. Except Rubio may even be worse; He'd flown the colors of conservatism to get elected. He was just one more subversive Pubbie hiding in a Trojan Horse.
