Schumer helping GOP: House Will Pass Senate Immigration Bill or Face Minority Status 'For a Decade'
breitbart ^ | 6/30/13

Posted on 06/30/2013 4:45:51 PM PDT by bestintxas

On Fox News Sunday, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) predicted that the House Republican resistance to bringing up the Senate’s immigration reform would be overcome. “I believe that by the end of this year,” said Schumer, “the House will pass the Senate bill.” That would be a shocking development, given the fact that Boehner has already said that the Senate bill will not see the light of day in the House.

Schumer said that the Republicans would force Speaker of the House John Boehner to take up the bill to prevent the party from becoming demographically obsolete. “The national Republican leadership will tell John Boehner, if you don’t pass a bill, we’re going to be a minority party for a decade,” Schumer stated. He also added that Democrats would not sign off on any approach to immigration reform that was not comprehensive.

Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) made no such prediction. “It’s not going to be easy,” he stated, “but I really hesitate to tell Speaker Boehner how he should do this.”

Schmuckie looks like a large Devil hovering just behind Juan’s shoulder.

As far as we know, he was in that room when the picture was taken. Physically, that is.

We'll need to ask a paranormal expert whether that photo was taken with some special camera.

He is correct that if this bill passes the Republicans will never win another election, but neither will the Democrats.

Or, Chuck, we could begin a new chapter in American history where we begin to dismantle Political Correctness one forbidden thought at a time.

Forgive me, but have things gotten this twisted that Chuck Schumer telling republicans to do something in order to win elections, is not immediately understood to be a friggin joke?

It’s like the devil tempting you to do something horrible “for your own good”.

The GOP will control the house until 2023.

It is impossible for them to lose. The Democrats would need a 2006 type landslide. For that to happen the GOP would need to pass amnesty or invade Syria and Iran.

Isn’t it nice how Schumer wants the GOP to blossom. He’s always looking out for their interests. /s/

Schumer is presumably telling Boehner this because he cares deeply about his Republican brethren and wants to help them win more seats.

Schumer, while claiming that supporting the dumb Senate bill will enable the GOP to survive and thrive, is actually trying to lure his biggest enemy into a suicide trap! Oh, how sly he thinks he is!

What makes you think that Boehner wont, eventually, follow?

It's the Democrats who are playing long ball. It's the Republicans who are chasing after each quicl win, and missing each time.

Why should I expect anything to change, as long as we have the current leadership in place?

Rush Limbaugh: ‘Wait Until the Republican Party Hears About This

RUSH: Wait Until The GOP Finds Out That Illegals Don’t Want Amnesty

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HetlXjLrhqY&feature=player_embedded

He went on: “There’s two things that they brought up that really scared me. They do not want to become United States citizens. I said, ‘Why not?’ They’re afraid that the United States government is going to take so much taxes out of their paychecks once they have to pay into the federal income tax.”

Saul Alinsky’s 12 Rules for Radicals << http://www.bestofbeck.com/wp/activism/saul-alinskys-12-rules-for-radicals >>

1) “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.” Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people.

2) “Never go outside the expertise of your people.” It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone.

3) “Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.” Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty.

8) “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance.

9) “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.” Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist.

10) “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.”

ENOUGH SAID ! RIGHT FROM THE PLAYBOOK !

Actually, it's exactly the opposite of what this charlatan says. If the Republican-controlled House passes this, the GOP will see a repeat of the 2006 midterms in 2014. In case you don't remember, amnesty was a big issue then--promoted by Jorge Bush--and the result was a Republican blood-bath.

Don't think the Dems aren't fully aware of this. They want total control for the last two years of Obama's term.

Not only Chuckie----but Paul Ryan compounded his stupidity by his sap-happy claim that reform would "take them out of the shadows, so that they can give us their real identities."

YOO HOO, CHUCKIE, PAULIE---HERE'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GUYS BRING THEM "OUT OF THE SHADOWS"--they already have multiple faked ID's to get drivers' licenses under different names....which also allows them to vote under different names....and collect US freebies under different names.

1. legalization forces them to get drivers' licenses under their real names.

2. state computers run a photo-match check to see if the same person has applied under different names.

3. they get investigated for ID theft and have to answer to a judge.

4. they get prosecuted under US law

==============================================

BTW, using multiple identities is v-e-r-y profitable.

<><> one latino illegal (one who got caught) scammed UI for some $3.4 MILLION.

<><> The Washington state latino rapist had some 30 identities---all riding the US gravy train.

<><> $43 million IRS refunds were sent to one address---that's about 37,000 fake ids---just at one address.
