Mitt Romney: Not Healthy Congress Hasn't Passed Amnesty
Breitbart Big Government ^ | 30 May 2014 | by TONY LEE

Posted on 05/30/2014 1:05:07 PM PDT by kingattax

On Friday, failed 2012 GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney said it wasn't healthy that Congress has not passed amnesty legislation that the Congressional Budget Office determined would lower the wages of American workers.

"I do believe it's important for us, before the presidential contest in 2016, to finally have immigration reform in place," Romney said, according to The Des Moines Register's Jennifer Jacobs. "I just don't think it's healthy for the country to continue to have this issue open and unresolved, particularly with so many families that are waiting for the answers."

Romney said he was not for a "special" pathway to citizenship and reportedly added "time is running out for" Congress to pass amnesty legislation this year.

Thanks for your post.

If there is any “absurdity” in post 4 that you want to defend Mitt Romney on, post it, and I will show my evidence which contradicts you and shows my post to be accurate.

No, he would have been worse. I’m sure some Pubs have played opposition to Obama simply because he was a D—if Mittens had been in half of them would have caved, and immigration “reform” would have passed with 2/3rds support in the house and 4/5ths support in the Senate—and Pelosi would be getting ready to resume the gavel.

So post 4 turns out to have been accurate and not “absurd” even though it was so critical of Mitt Romney.

I need to warn you, kingattax, if you keep posting like this, people are going to start thinking that you should be President or something on a comparable level.

Like, maybe fart-lighterer or something...

I am able to sleep easy at night, knowing that RomneyCare was in no way, the inspiration for ObamaCare...

Only tungsten?
I think you chose too soft/flexible a material.

I apologize to anyone that I argued with during the last election who said they were staying home rather than vote for this joke of a man.

So nothing on the topic, just a personal attack from some personal grudge you carry about some political position that you cannot defend, on some thread, somewhere in the past.

In 2014, the talking point of the GOP establishment seems to be that they are OK with a "pathway to citizenship", but definitely NOT OK with a "SPECIAL" pathway.

In related news, I am a strong supporter of eating cheeseburgers, as long as it doesn't include a special method of putting cheese on hamburgers.

LOL. You really highlight the absurdity with that analogy.

I've thoughts on the topic -- people upthread have, for the most-part, already said it, however… that is also assuming I could get it past my utter loathing of Romney and the Party That Pushed [Him].

My attack (as you call it) was more in jest — you present yourself as morally superior, taking any disagreement as reason to attack and/or insult whomever does so, and rather self-righteous. Moreover, you are utterly unwilling to allow for someone sticking by some principal if it disagrees with you (a good example is when someone brings up some function that they believe is not a legitimate function of the [federal] government that you espouse). All this leads me to believe that nobody can legitimately disagree with you… hence the allusion to tungsten being too soft/malleable for a good comparison.
