Friday's developments seemed to all but rule out anything happening on the issue this year in the House, if even Denham's limited measure could not advance.

The usual sickening bias from Asspress, especially in picking photos, both favoring amnesty.

immigrants who live here illegally yet serve in the military.

Okay, so apparently nobody sees a problem with that?

Democrips want murderers and rapists on the streets. These are the ‘dreamers’. They dream of raping and killing your children while Obama and co smile approvingly.

If you protest, you’re a racist.

Sneaking in a bill as an amendment to NDAA. Slimy.

In response, Doug Heye, spokesman for House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, said: "No proposed ENLIST amendments to NDAA will be made in order."

As the old saw goes, politicians only see the light when they feel the heat.

So, if the leadership will not allow it to be attached to this bill and won’t permit a vote on a stand alone bill they obviously plan to attach it to a must pass bill. I don’t for a second believe immigration reform is dead.

Would somebody please explain this to me. I spent several decades on active duty in the Army; I always understood that an illegal alien could not enlist because they (among other things) did not have a social security number. Green card holders could enlist, but not illegals, that would be a fraudulent enlistment. At least that has been the case over the last thirty years.

Balderdash. If it happens, and I believe it will, it will happen in the lame duck session after the election. The uniparty is decided on the issue: the middle class MUST be screwed over.

the widely denigrated system

Why don't we overhaul the widely denigrated tax system?

Why don't we overhaul the widely denigrated bank robbery laws?

Why don't we overhaul the widely denigrated rape, murder, and child molestation laws?

WHY don't we FOLLOW and UPHOLD the law?

Let me say something that most conservatives reading this column won’t agree with: we don’t deserve to get more of the black vote.

I hate this. I wish the founders had made an Amendment that stated any bill could only deal with its one main issue, Defense is for defense, not immigration or education or farming etc. You want an immigration bill you write an immigration bill and vote it up or down. Do not sneak it into other things...........

Illegal Immigration Analogy

Allegedly written by Governor Jan Brewer in response to the Phoenix Suns owner’s opposition to Arizona’s illegal immigration law.

“What if the owners of the Suns discovered that hordes of people were sneaking into games without paying? What if they had a good idea who the gate-crashers are but the ushers and security personnel were not allowed to ask these folks to produce their ticket stubs, thus non-paying attendees couldn’t be ejected. Furthermore, what if Suns’ ownership was expected to provide those who sneaked in with complimentary eats and drink? And what if, on those days when a gate-crasher became ill or injured, the Suns had to provide free medical care and shelter?”

The vast majority of citizens in this country do not want amnesty, yet the GOPe pursues it to attract more voters.

More moderates will vote for a GOP that moves to control the border than amnestied Hispanics ever would.

...a Republican congressman (Jeff Dunham) announced plans to try to force a vote next week, over strong conservative opposition, on his measure creating a path to citizenship for immigrants who live here illegally yet serve in the military.

Personally I don't believe that statement for a second. You mean ANYONE can just show up and walk into a recruiting office and enlist in the military without any form of photo ID, or notorized birth certificate or SS ID? I think that Rino Rep Jeff Dunham is lying through his teeth, trying to make it appear as if illegal aliens in the military is a "fait accompli". BULLS__T! I don't believe that for a second and I further don't believe this RINO bastard Jeff Dunham!

I hope he is being primaried by some conservative Tea Party candidate!
