"He started off his remarks saying a lot of you don't agree with my position on immigration but I did what I thought was right for the country," Niger Innis, chief strategist of TheTeaParty.net, told the Tampa Bay Times. "He only spent about 30 seconds on it. He knows most people in the room disagree with him but it was respectful. No eggs were thrown at him.
"He spent much more time a good 10 minutes talking about Obamacare and the moral and practical and economic responsibility that tea party members and conservatives have to derail Obamacare."
Rubio in his brief immigration remarks mentioned how he does not plan on pressing the House on immigration. "He's given his pound of flesh to those who want comprehensive immigration reform," Innis said. "We disagree with him but it was courageous. But he's said his part. I think he's done. I think he realized he has to remind those in the tea party that on 95 percent of the issues, he is right in line with them. His record is sterling except for one major blemish."

What the hell was his mama thinking?
Thirty pieces of silver.
I don’t see it. The last time I made a compromise on a guy who I liked otherwise but couldn’t stand his stance on immigration was George W. Bush. Who promptly stuck that issue in a very personal place and broke it off. Never again.
How can any conservative ever trust him again?
Not me. His championing of the La Raza bill was too much. I don’t even think he cared about the contents of the bill, just went ahead and pushed it anyway..
Marco RINiO is a fake, phony.
Rubio is a treasonous rat just like the rest of them for aiding and abetting the LARGEST FOREIGN INVASION IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD!
LLS
He supports the interests of hispanics legal and illegal first and foremost, and is also on the take, raking in 3 million in cash campaign contributions from businesses that want cheap labor,middle class whites be dammed.
“Why would we want to alienate this rising star?” Innis said.
Methinks it is the other way around...Rubio “alienated” us. Sorry, Marco, but you screwed the pooch on this one.
BTW, who died and made Mr. Innis leader of anything? Can I be a leader, too, if I get myself a web site called TeaPartydotsomething? Just askin’.....
Forgiveness?
Or Acceptance?
Neither one as far as I am concerned.
They need to recall this moron who wishes destruction on our culture, country and his party
He will NEVER NEVER get my vote.
exactly
Drivel!
Why has no on launched a recall on Rubio?
‘Niger Innis’ Never heard of him. I’ve heard of ‘Rowdy Negro.’
If this were Rowdy talking, well, that’d be different. Good ol’ Rowdy.
Federal officers — senators and representatives — cannot be recalled. This has been litigated in federal court (Idaho, 1967) and state court (New Jersey, 2013).
