Stand With Arizona
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), the last Republican to speak on the floor before today's shameful vote to advance the 'Gang of 8' amnesty bill, gave a brief but powerful presentation showing up the open-borders Senators as supporting bill that is just like ObamaCare, and does nothing to secure the border.
Cruz comparing the rushed, unread amnesty bill being rushed through only 72 hours after being introduced, without a single hearing on it to the health care bill - a clear blast at the 15 turncoat Republicans who have all endlessly denounced the way the Nancy Pelosi insisted her colleagues has to "pass (ObamaCare) so you can find out what's in it".
The junior senator from Texas, who stands his ground like a veteran of many years, Cruz also skewers Senators who supported today's "fig leaf" amendment as those who don't want to "actually secure the border", but merely to "convince gullible constituents that they've done something" - when of course the Corker amendment guarantees absolutely nothing for border security.
Schumer tries to derail Cruz at the start, but fails. This is no "freshman", this is a leader...
Keep fighting, Senator Cruz - we stand with you!
Make sure to sign Ted Cruz' petition against the 'Gang of 8' amnesty HERE.
I’ve already voted for Cruz once. Would vote for him Chicago style next time if I could.
We so desperately need an eloquent and courageous leader - I hope he’s it.

I hope he ain’t it. He’s too much of a puss. If we are going to ride this train- no stops. No if, and, or maybe. Either way, we get to the end of the line. That is where real choices, can be accomplished. God hates cowards.
So who are you pinning your hopes on?
Ted Cruz Crushes Amnesty Proponents: Compares 'Gang of 8' Bill to 'Obamacare' (vid from today)
If I am a business man and hire an illegal with no consequences for my action, I will hire him as he will probably work cheaper and I will not have to pay him or her benefits. If I hire him and incur a 1000 dollar fine I “might hire him.” If the fine doubles every time I hire an illegal I sure as hell will not hire them. When they have no jobs they will go home. Reality is ugly, that is the way it works. Business wants cheap labor and the Democrat party wants new Democrat voters.
This is my country, it does not belong to any other nation. I welcome those that will come to my country legally and assimilate into our great nation and culture. It will make us a better and stronger nation. I do not want those that will not assimilate and share our ideals of freedom and Republic.
ps
I am a Texas Bollio (white boy) married to a Mexican from Mexico. She came to this country legally, her father paid out of state tuition for her to attend the University of Texas. She did it legally and the way all should. She is an American Citizen now.
Huh?
Cruz is the best we have, and you should not take shots at him.
Even if you are too much of a puss to tell us who YOU support.
These are the ones who should be the most dead-set against illegal immigration, they played by the rules.
Find it strange when the excuse is being given that while the government knows whats going on in 300 million citizens lives but because the illegals are not citizens and in “the shadows” according to Florida’s Senator Rubio the US doesn’t know who they are or where they’re comming from so we must make them citizens..
THE QUESTION IS SENATORS AND CONGRESS MEMBERS ...WHY ARE YOU SO SET ON IMPORTING LOW WAGE LABORERS MAINLY FROM ONE COUNTRY WHICH TAKE UP JOBS OUR YOUTH COULD BE PERFORMING AND HURTING THE BLACK AMERICAN JOB MARKET ?
FR’s ; are urged to visit their respective Congressional Representatives and let them know their feelings
WHEN IT COMES TO AMNESTY
THIS IS THE MEXICAN PART NO ONE DARES MENTION
If you agree with the above and the following please don’t let it lay here in FR-land. Pass it on to to your favorite talk show host and to your US legislators. PUSH THE HASTERT RULE.
ONE NATIONALITY AMNESTY SKEWS QUOTAS. HURTS OTHERS FROM SOUTH AMERICA, AND SKILLED LABOR QUOTAS FROM OTHER NATIONS ...WORSE YET OFFERING AMNESTY FOR NATIONALS FROM A COUNTRY THAT HAS CLAIMS ON OUR NATIONAL TERRITORY THAT COULD AND HAS TURNED INTO PROBLEMS FOR BORDER STATES CLAIMED BY MEXICO .
In that May 3rd speech Obama gave before the Mexican Anthropological Museum in which he blamed America for the violence in Mexico I believe he went even futhur. There’s a inference but never referenced by name to the Gasden purchase and border settlements US made with Mexico where Obama hinted he seems to side with the Mexican claims. Would those in attendence share that view is a question that should be asked, because I believe they would,.he does.
SOLVING THE ‘LATINO” PROBLEM A MYTH HISPANIC IS NOT A RACE BUT A POLITICAL LINGUISTIC CONTRIVANCE ...don’t fall into the hyphenated Americans trap created by the hyphenated political party ...The DEMO-COMS
The Mexicans have been getting most favorable treatment above the rest of our neighbors both north and south. They’re permitted to cross our borders and enter illegally and are allowed access to rights of citizenship (with the exception of voting which if the democrat party regains control over the House will happen) other nationals entering this country don’t get.. Worse yet the Obama government has been working hand in glove with Mexican movements such as LaRaza supporting the Mexican claims which are also supporting “Amnesty”.
Also by allowing Mexicans to do this any quota ration for immigration from other south and central American countrys are taken up by Mexicans while that country is laying claim to a large chunk of our sovereign territory is a recipe for later serious problems which are happening now.
ARE MEXICAN ILLEGALS SQUATTERS PERPETUATING THE MEXICAN CLAIMS ?
We are already seeing the result of this in certain areas claimed by the Mexicans. Their national flag (standard) gets displayed over ours. Where there is a controlling number of Mexican nationals (illegals). It’s displayed over certain institutions particularly schools accompanied by riots and disturbances. Blacks are threatend by Mexicans in certain sections of citys in those areas. We’re courting trouble by not placing a value on our sovereignty and our citizenship.
MOST COINS OF THE REALM HAVE TWO FACES WHAT ABOUT HOW ARE AMERICAN CITIZENS LIVING IN MEXICO BEING TREATED ?
Worse yet if a US citizen goes into Mexico never mind illegaly but legally. They’ll get 2nd class treatment. Land ownership in title is prohibited period. And there are a slew of regulations they must comply with. Which doesn’t apply to a citizen of Mexico
THE SOLUTION ASSERT OUR SOVEREIGNTY AND TALK RECIPROCITY .
By not insisting on reciprocity particularly on those who have entered this country illegally we’re offering no incentive for assimilation and we’re not easing the burden for our fellow citizens who for what ever reason decided to live in Mexico.
ENOUGH OF THE ONE WORLD SOCIALISM ...BRING BACK SOVEREIGNTY AND SANITY TO OUR COUNTRY .....BRING BACK BELIEF IN GOD ...THIS GOVERNMENT OUT OUR FACE..... OUR RELIGIONS..... AND OUR BEDROOMS..
You’re right, I am a pussy. I support no lyin’ bastard, at this time. By the by- a song and dance today, is not seductive, by the means of tommorrow. Fools are always born a day ahead of mishap. Rest easy, you probably, won’t notice.
Don’t ever forget. The RNC wanted Dewhurst!
Who is the last person you supported?
Personally, I’m in the “we gotta support the best we’ve got” group. And for me it’s Cruz and a few others. There are actual patriots out there showing courage, taking the flak, and those are my heros.
You remember the quote about when good men do nothing, don’t you?
I smell a troll...
I am a legal immigrant and dead set against amnesty. But what is going on now, is even worse than amnesty. We do not know who is here, how many are here, they work for cash and pay no taxes, they receive food stamps & emergency medical care, and there is no fence or follow ups of people overstaying visa’s. Worst part is thousands are sneaking in every day.
For President of the United States, was Duncan Hunter. I don’t know much, about the good men doing nothing, perhaps a courage driven patriot person-like you could explain it to me. Please. I am willing to learn.
The Gang of Traitors bill only gives away more free stuff...no penalties, nada.
Oh, I’ve never seen good men, do nothing. Please explain that, also. Thanks.
