Rubio Flips Again, Helps Sink Biometric Visa Tracking Amendment
Breitbart News ^ | 6/18/13 | Kerry Picket

Posted on 06/18/2013 7:56:01 PM PDT by paltz

The Senate voted down an amendment to the upper chamber's immigration bill proposed by Sen. David Vitter (R-LA) that would require a full biometric visa tracking system placed at every land, sea, and air port of entry in the United States before legalized immigrants could receive green cards.

The measure, which was also called for by the 9/11 Commission in the wake of the 2001 terrorist attacks, would establish a biometric exit-entry system.

Gang of Eight member Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) told Breitbart News last week that the tracking system was the "lynchpin to the whole bill." In May, he told various outlets he favored such a tracking system. On Tuesday, however, Rubio voted against the Visa tracking amendment.

Members of the "Gang of Eight" promised border security before legalization in the process of bringing their immigration bill to the Senate. However, an amendment proposed by Senator John Thune (R-SD) that would finally construct the 700 mile double-layer border fence as mandated by the 2006 Secure Fence Act was voted down as well with the help of the Republican members of the Gang of Eight.

These facts must devastate Rush and Levin, who have tried so hard to believe Rubio, when he “assured” them of requiring border security and biometric visas before his support, each of which he walked away from!

It’s hard to rationalize what Rubio is doing other than to say he is stuck on stupid.

Have been disappointed that they haven't cut bait with him yet.

Still, I admire the fact that they have taken issue with the Zuckerberg money bomb that's saturating WABC with those imbecilic, pro-amnesty radio ads.

“It’s hard to rationalize what Rubio is doing other than to say he is stuck on stupid.”

It’s almost like he has had a stroke and doesn’t know what he is doing.

Here are the top medications used for the treatment of dissociative identity:

1. Antidepressant drugs: These include citalopram, venlafaxine, phenelzine, fluoxetine, and sertraline. These drugs help reduce depression in some dissociative identity disorder patients. Antidepressants must be taken only under expert guidance as some of them have several side effects. Any change in the patient’s behavior due to the effect of medication must be monitored consistently.

2. Depressants: Depressants are used to calm down certain dissociative identity disorder patients displaying violent and manic behavior. These drugs temporarily diminish hyperactivity of the brain. They are used to prevent seizures or respiratory disorders that can be associated with a dissociative identity disorder. Examples of depressants include carisoprodol, atropine, benzodiazepines, and cyclobenzaprine.

3. Antipsychotic medication: These include chlorpromazine, aripiprazole, Risperdal®, Haldol®, and mellaril. These dissociative identity disorder drugs are used when the patient exhibits psychotic behavior. They work as mood stabilizers as well. Even if the dissociative identity patient is not diagnosed with psychosis, these drugs can be used to tranquilize and stabilize the mood. The drugs should be used strictly under the prescription and guidance of an expert physician.

4. Anxiety medication: These drugs are used for the treatment of dissociative identity patients who display excessive anxiety, or when anxiety is a trigger for dissociative identity disorder behavior. Anxiety can sometimes be an associated condition caused by dissociative identity problems. These medications help reduce anxiety. Xanax®, librium, valium, and ativan are some examples.

5. Stimulants: These are used as dissociative identity disorder drugs when the patient displays severe depression, or in cases where depression is a cause of dissociative identity problems. Stimulants improve the central nervous system's response and make the person alert, wakeful, and active. This medication should only be taken in recommended doses and on a physician’s prescription. In addition, these medications are not suitable for some dissociative identity disorder patients. Examples of stimulant drugs include midafinil, methylphenidate, caffeine, and dextroamphetamine.

Yes, and Rush named names yesterday, the Koch Brothers (funders and founders of Americans for Tax Reform, which I joined) and Ken Adelson (deep pocket funder of Newt Gingrich, another Amnesty-loving GOP-er!)

Blackmail?

I can’t think of any rational explaination, either.

They are going to pass this..... too much momentum and all we have to stop them is the Weeper in the House.

Sorry, we are screwed. Ironically, the GOP will take most of the blame because Rubio has become the face of this monstrosity just as Obama will forever be the face of the Unaffordable Care Act.

The one-two punch of ballooning entitlements from amnesty combined with government healthfare in the face of our ballooning debt makes me want to invest in the prepper industry. It’s going to get ugly. Shrillery will be a shoo-in for 2016 with 11 million new voters. Kiss Florida goodbye for a long time.

They didn't found it-that one is Grover Norquist's project.

I think you're confusing ATR with Americans for Prosperity.

But you're right, the Koch brothers are Beltway libertarians (cosmotarians), and probably agree with Reason Mag, Cato, the WSJ, among others, on the subject of open borders and immigration.

Adelson is the worst though.

Not only a huge proponent of open borders-and an hypocrite-but he tried to foist Newt Gingrich upon us in the last election.

Low information billionaire.

A moron like Rubio is giving me new respect for the intelligence of Nancy Pelosi.

There is only one way to defend a a thousand pages of indefensible legislation."We have to pass the bill before you will know what's in it."

Of course, that playbook only works when you control both bodies of the legislative branch as well as the executive.

Which is where the village idiot Rubio comes in.

They attempt to get Marco to persuade Boehner and enough house members to go over the cliff to get the legislation passed.

It is quite plain to see just how stupid Rubio is, it is very much up in the air if the speaker and enough members in the house are stupid enough to be taking instructions from Rubio.

One thing is for sure if the bill doesn't pass, the media will canonize Marco and demonize every member of the Republican house.
