Some members of the Republican Party do "get it" on immigration, says Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, but President Barack Obama isn't helping matters when he keeps acting alone.
Graham, appearing Sunday on "Face the Nation" with fellow Republican Sen. John McCain, said he doesn't see how the GOP can win the presidency in 2016 if it adopts self-deportation as its solution.
"Ted Cruz embraces legalization without a path to citizenship," Graham said. "Things are changing on our side."
Asked by host Bob Schieffer how they feel being part of a body and a party that won't act on immigration reform, McCain said, "We'll just continue to fight.

I'm not sure that statement is true, I hope not, my suspicion would be Graham is taking Cruz out of context or just lying...anyone know if that is the position Cruz takes, I would like to know, with link if possible.
He sounded a bit soft a couple times early on, but he’s hardened his stance since against illegal immigration.
Screw McGrahamnesty and McStain.
So these two RINOs think that promoting lawless votes is the path to the Presidency? As history has proven, these foreigners won’t vote Republican anyway. The GOPe will just keep losing elections for REAL Americans, which they could care less about, apparently.
I’ve never tired of Rush’s ditty about McCain.... Searching for the center of the left
Regardless of whatever he said here ... that was just good parody a few years back.
FU McDemocrat and Grahamnesty. You worthless idiots.
Do those things and illegal aliens will deport themselves and pay for the trip.
One addition to the policy is needed.
some in gop don’t get it on immigration-should be the title/s
> “Ted Cruz embraces legalization without a path to citizenship,” Graham said.”
COMPLETE BS. GRAHAM IS A LIAR AND A LUNATIC.
Ted’s legislative amendments are viewable by anyone that cares to look. He agrees to ‘register’ illegals but views them as lawbreakers. He aims to deport them. He is not at all in support of anything that leads to citizenship or amnesty for illegal lawbreakers. He has said repeatedly that rewarding lawbreakers leads to more lawbreaking and is unfair to the law abiding.
“Get it” could mean smallpox so there is hope.
He lost both times didn't he?
vaudine
Crusify every employer that hires one and they will be gone in 6 months, that includes homeowners that hire one off the street corner!
What exactly is it do they “get”?
When did Ted Cruz ever say that?
Most of the GOPE is not on our side.
It is true and with it Cruz eliminates himself from contention.
Even Romney had a tougher espoused position.
