Here’s why.

Sor0s funds McCain...it’s a fact.

McCain isn’t the only McCain, i.e., is a sell-out traitor who builds his castle, digs his moat and expects us to serve him. And, the McCains, of which, Boehner, Cantor, Graham, McConnel are examples, make $$$ by CHOOSING to be in the minority...yes, the minority. They make more $$$ making deals and selling out then by fighting for the Constitution and the republic.

Yep, it is too much work to try to win, and, you don’t make as much $$$. That, is why.

"For the GOP, the only immigration measure that belongs on the agenda this year is securing the border, a national security priority that need not be accompanied by amnesty or anything else."

There ya go.

Comprehensive border controls.

John ‘LaRaza’ Boehner is looking increasingly stoop-id, now even outside of the party base, who were the very first to have had many a laugh at his expense, for a very long time.

The last time Bill made any sense was when he told Juan McLame to pick Sarah Palin over his buddy Joe Lieberman as a running mate back in 2008. In six more years will he come out for the flat tax or the Tea Party?

Thanks to the ObamaCare debacle and the IRS, Benghazi and other scandals, Republicans will almost surely drub the Democrats in this year's midterm elections.

I'm taking bets.

[Howie66]

If I even have a hint that one of my Reps or other candidates for ANY office is even thinking about jumping in the AMNESTY bandwagon, they are through as far as I am concerned.

John Cornyn is already there.

Don't count on it. The GOPe excels at snatching defeat out of the jaws of victory.

[tennmountainman]

What Sweet Krystol does not say is millions of conservatives have walked
away from the GOP already and TENS of millions more conservatives will
walk away from the GOP too if amnesty is passed.

[headstamp 2]

If anything, this illustrates the utter stupidity and tone deafness of the current GOP leadership in the House and Senate.

To even consider anything to do with immigration in this election year is beyond idiocy.

The general public does not regard this issue important at all.

The GOPe had better get it’s collective head out of the ass of the corporatist lobby and decide who the hell it is they are supposed to be serving.

[Ray76]

>> Thanks to the ObamaCare debacle and the IRS, Benghazi and other scandals, Republicans will almost surely drub the Democrats in this year’s midterm elections.

It should be EASY. But the LaRaza Republicans will not hear of it. They are going to sink the Republicans FOREVER.

[hawkaw]

What I do not get about all these and other similar reports, is the GOP has not proposed or even floated anything since they screwed up with the senate bill.

All I keep hearing is nothing big can or will happen as both sides are now heavily dug in on this issue.

According to The Huffington Post, in an article published during McCain’s 2008 presidential run, Soros funded the McCain’s Reform Institute, a nonpartisan 501c3 organization focused on promoting accountability and transparency in government, while the senator was still with the organization.

The Huffington Post article also referenced two Talking Points Memo reports: One indicated that Soros gave the Reform Institute $150,000; another said Soros’ Open Society Institute in 2002 gave $300,000 in grants to groups defending McCain’s campaign finance law against legal challenges to it.

With millions of people out of work, with record low “labor participation rates”, why would anyone consider legalizing 20 million illegals?

Secure the border. Enforce the law. Let the chips fall where they may.

An investigative author says George Soros used Sen. John McCain to push for limits on issue advertising by grass-roots groups because he was upset over the cataclysmic failure of Hillarycare, the all-encompassing government health-care program proposed during Bill Clinton’s first term as president.

The author, Richard Poe, whose earlier publications include Hillary’s Secret War: The Clinton Conspiracy to Muzzle Internet Journalists, told WND that Soros later funded the senator’s Reform Institute because of their work together on the McCain-Feingold Act.

http://www.wnd.com/2008/02/56745/#ii0IH62jMpPWsVsf.99

According to the author, Soros devised McCain-Feingold in 1994 in response to the failure of Hillarycare, the universal health-care program Hillary Clinton championed.

Hillary, Soros and other Democrats blamed the defeat of Hillarycare on television advertising and, as a result, Soros resolved to choke off access to the TV airwaves to those opponents, Poe told WND.

in their book, “The Shadow Party: How George Soros, Hillary Clinton, and Sixties Radicals Seized Control of the Democratic Party,” co-authors David Horowitz and Poe trace Soros’ determination to push for campaign finance reform back to a speech Soros gave at Columbia University’s school of medicine on Nov. 30, 1994.

In their book, Horowitz and Poe argued that Soros had a “covert purpose,” both in supporting Hillarycare and in funding the Project on Death in America, namely, “to save money by rationing health care.”

Health-care rationing was the essence of Hillary’s health plan in 1994, just as it is today, Poe said, when Hillary now promises to slash medical spending in America by $120 billion per year.

Poe told WND that Soros’ plan came to fruition with his funding of Arianna Huffington’s “Shadow Conventions,” which were designed to be held at the same time and in the same cities as the Republican and Democratic national nominating conventions in Philadelphia and Los Angeles in 2000.

Sen. Russ Feingold was the keynote speaker at the Los Angeles Shadow Convention during the Democratic Party’s national nominating convention, while John McCain gave the keynote speech in Philadelphia during the Republican Party’s national nominating convention.

An archived transcript from CNN shows McCain delivered the keynote address for Huffington’s Shadow Convention on July 30, 2000, two days before he addressed the Republican National Convention in Philadelphia.

In their book “The Shadow Party,” Horowitz and Poe document what they call “Pewgate,” a successful effort by Soros’ Open Society Institute to get Pew Charitable Trusts to lead a group of foundations to contribute $140 million to promote campaign finance reform from 1994 to 2004.

“Without funding from George Soros’ Open Society Institute and other Pewgate foundations, the Shadow Conventions could not and would not have occurred, any more than McCain-Feingold could eventually have passed into law,” wrote Horowitz and Poe.

The Reform Institute opened its doors in July 2001, with John McCain listed as chairman on the organization’s homepage and Arianna Huffington listed as a member of the Advisory Committee.

“McCain’s Reform Institute for Campaign and Election Issues received generous funding from several Pewgate foundations, including the Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Jerome Kohlberg, Jr. Revocable Trust, and George Soros’ Open Society Institute,” wrote Horowitz and Poe in “The Shadow Party.”

Good. Let it die.

The problem with any immigration bill is that immediately the Clown will NOT ENFORCE any provision of the law with which he, his boss Valerie, and his punk Eric Holder disagree.

Also, one of the first moves will be to have federal, hand picked judges AUTOMATICALLY DECLARE ALL PERSONS AFFECTED BY THIS LAW as CITIZENS....

How or why ANYONE would trust this team, or Hitlery, to abide by the law, is mind boggling.

“The main obstacle to a stable and just world order is the United States.” —George Soros

Senator John McCain, a bona fide war hero and decorated prisoner of war, would seem an unlikely candidate for cooperation with the likes of George Soros. But things aren’t always what they seem. Upon close examination, it turns out that Senator John McCain and his various efforts are funded by a number of George Soros’ shadowy organizations.

Senator McCain first rose to national prominence on the issue of campaign finance reform. Everybody knows that our political system is so corrupted by money from special interests that it no longer represents the interests of the people; so this is pretty much a “mom and apple-pie” issue. So Senator McCain undertook the task of “taking the money out of politics,” and even founded a non-profit institute, called The Reform Institute to move the project forward.

But where does the optimistically-named Reform Institute get its money? Well, the donors list includes George Soros’ Open Society Institute and The Tides Foundation among others. Try not to be shocked that Arianna Huffington, a long-time Soros organizer serves on its advisory board.

Just to show how loyal the esteemed Mr. Soros is to his loyal minions like John McCain, Ms. Huffington actually organized a series of Shadow Conventions for fundraising for McCain prior to his previous campaign for president, for which Soros contributed about a third of the funding.

In the wake of the passage of the McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance Reform Bill, was corruption reduced? Of course not. All that happened was a bunch of so-called 527 groups funded by George Soros had free reign to do whatever they wanted while pro-constitution advocacy groups like the NRA were muzzled.(1) This “side-effect” of the bill was utterly predictable based upon who had funded it.

In 2002 McCain teamed up with the Orwellian-named “Americans for Gun Safety” a second amendment abolition group funded through Soros, and advocated all sorts of draconian controls on our constitutional rights. Now that he’s running for president as a “Republican” he has moderated his tone a bit on the issue, but you can rest assured that if he ever wins the presidency, he will march to the beat of George Soros’ drum on this issue. Practically all gun control groups in this country are ultimately funded by Soros through various channels.

Just to add insult to injury, in 2005 McCain misused the non-profit Institute even more than usual in a quid-pro-quo where he intervened on behalf of Cablevision in exchange for Cablevision donating $200,000 to the Institute. Funny how we never heard about that one, huh? (2)

I occasionally like to point out that, in the 2008 campaign, Soros had at least three horses in that race.

Had either Obama, Hillary, or McCain won, he won.

When Soros plays cards, he deals the cards and he always knows who has what hand.

[Seaplaner]

One House GOP aide, in an e-mail to Breitbart News, asked, "Do we really want to just give up the midterms like this?"

Sen. Jeff Sessions, R.-Ala., writing in Monday's USA Today, warned that such "large permanent increases in the flow of new workers from abroad" — 30 million over a decade, under the Senate-passed bill — "would be an extraordinary act of self-sabotage."

If the GOPers in office had any (any) idea of just how much WE CONSTITUENTS DO NOT WANT AMNESTY (and we do not want to be insulted by calling "amnesty" "reform")...

... they would (figuratively) fight for the microphone to be first in line to be on record as rock solid opposed to amnesty!)

Boehner has to be as closeted Democrat, but what does that say about his “GOP” colleagues?
