We'll be REVISITING the same question a decade from now.
Horowitz points out the obvious: They aren't going to let a kid stay and kick out his parents who are his source of support. And that means they'll have to green card the parents, and then the grandparents, and then the uncles/aunts/cousins.
This is just sneaky amnesty.
One step at a time.
Step 1: Totally control access to this nation.
Step 2: Refer to step 1.
We are witnessing the Fabian’s endgame.
There is a small but powerful minority in the GOP which is pushing Amnesty.
Push back. Hard.
They are a minority.
Do not let them get away with this sell-out.
I’m all for trying to send them all back. You start rounding them up, word on the streets will spread and a bunch will go back on their own. Cut welfare from able bodies Americans to pay for it and let them slide into the jobs he illegals have, shoveling crap or manual labor. Make them responsible for their lives instead of blood sucking leaches off us taxpayers.
There is no real urgency to grant amnesty now. Illegal immigrants have been freely entering this country since the late 1980s when amnesty was granted to millions of illegal immigrants. As a consequence we now have tens of millions of illegal immigrants, and more continuing to come into our country.
The urgent problem is our leaky borders that allow the invasion to continue. The urgency is for our lawmakers to enforce the laws on the books, and to secure our borders.
Then it makes sense to take whatever time is needed to develop a compassionate, meaningful way to citizenship for the illegal aliens already here.
So why on earth would Republicans push for amnesty
*********
The party doesn’t really stand for anything. The careerist RINO’s have infested the party and only want to “compromise” with Dems so they can get a few table scraps and keep their do-nothing jobs.
The Republican Party wants our votes and money, but not our principles and values.
And then the clueless leadership wonders why people are abandoning the party.
Pandering in the hope of getting their votes, but amnesty isn’t going to be enough. They want cash and the dems will provide it.
One that will blindly pull the lever without asking questions or demanding results.
The Dems want amnesty so they can make themselves the permanent major party sooner. Under the current immigration policies, they will become the permanent majority party anyway. Amnesty just hastens the process.
The Reps want a massive increase in guest workers as demanded by their corporate paymasters. They will concede almost anything to get it.
Religious, labor, and ethnic groups are supporting it for reasons of power, money, and increased constituencies even if it means destruction of the country.
The big losers are the American worker and the country, which will be flooded by cheap labor from the Third World.
Then it makes sense to take whatever time is needed to develop a compassionate, meaningful way to citizenship for the illegal aliens already here.
BS. There should be no citizenship for lawbreakers who flaunted our laws in multiple ways including working illegally, tax evasion, ID theft, misuse of SSNs, etc. When you reward something you get more of it. Attrition thru enforcement is the right approach for these lawbreakers. Save your compassion for the 4 million intending immigrants waiting their turn to enter overseas. They completed all the paperwork, background checks, physicals, etc.
FYI: 40% of the illegals who are in the country came here legally and overstayed their visas. Securing the border solves only part of the problem.
The minority pushing Amnesty in the GOP are the ones with the money. The ones who want to buy access to cheap labor.
And that money allows them to speak more loudly than the rest of us.
Strangely it seems we’ve come full circle and are nearly in agreement with the DUmmies on that one.
Blackmail and bribes.
The two men I have placed the most faith in, Paul Ryan and Trey Gowdy, have become corrupt—or always were.
They have one job: the economy!
They can’t do one job!
I think there is a segment of the GOP which is trying to rule those of us also in the GOP, as much as they are trying to beat Democrats.
Perhaps more.
I think Palin is waiting to see how this turns out.
After it turns out, it could be too late

GOP’s courtship of Silicon Valley put to the test in immigration fight
The Hill ^ | July 12, 2013 | Jennifer Martinez
I dunno.
The illegal immigration battle will hinge on two things I think.
First off, on this battle right now in the House.
I think this is what Palin is waiting on, to see whether the GOP goes for America, or for illegal immigration.
Number two, on the mid-terms.
I think Palin will have picked a side, long before then.
GOP will be split, just barely enough will join the Dems to pass this crap
sound familiar?
