And the Democrats will do it better? Why not put the drug cartels in charge. Oh, wait. They already are.

[mythenjoseph]

Thank you..I corrected my error.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Joni took a strong stand on abortion in her debate with Braily (the turd.)
You could look it up.

BTTT

“Fact remains that this woman IS a rino....she will push AMNESTY through under the moniker of reform...the only difference between her and Braley are the political party they claim to be part of...both are turncoats and will undermine our republic with the legalizing of the unwashed masses who have no allegiance to this once great republic other than milking it for all its worth until the host (America) finally succumbs to the parasites that they are.”

And what about the other 5-10 issues where she does vote against the rats? Amnesty? How about the repeal of Obamacare? You’re going to give that back to the rats because she will vote for amnesty? Did it ever occur to anyone that with a Republican majority, people like Cruz and Lee will lend their voice to stricter border laws? And with a rat majority, you will get outright amnesty, Obamacare stays and the rats are better positioned for 2016.

With that one statement you marked yourself as a troll.

I am surrounded by them, Susan Collins...Olympia snowe...former senator from Maine....I am neck deep in moonbats up here in the Northeast and I now get browbeaten for simply stating this womans own view on amnesty and her opinions on immigration...

[mythenjoseph]

Her other views are fantastic, but what good will it do if 11-30 million illegals are awarded with citizenship? (whatever the real number) How do we survive the onslaught of chain migration?.. Thats all I’m saying! She is by far the better of the pair , i loathe democrats and have no common ground with there views at all.

[smoothsailing]

You’re mistaken.

,......

Immigration reform is an issue important to Iowa, but it has stalled in Congress. What immigration reforms could you support?

Before we start talking about changes in the law, what I feel we need to do is secure our borders. If we’re not securing our borders, we don’t know that anything else is working. Second, enforce the laws that are on the books. Right now we don’t enforce laws that are out there. Even if we would implement immigration reform, put new laws on the books, who says we’re going to enforce those laws? We don’t enforce what we have right now. So, I do think it’s important to secure the borders, enforce the laws that we have now, and with employers enforcing the laws, perhaps through programs like E-Verify.

She hasn't said she'll "push amnesty"...what she's said is that she won't work to repeal DACA...the importing of masses of illegal, diseased children from Central and South America.

Parsing? Yeah, probably. But if you're going to lay accusations out there, you would do well to include sources to support them vs. just bleating about it.

[Amnesty?]

[Chamber of Commerce endorses anti-immigration reform candidate?]

"Ernst spokeswoman Gretchen Hamel, when asked Monday to clarify the candidate's stance on DACA, said Ernst does not support amnesty for adults or expanding DACA, but reiterated that she would not support its repeal.

"Joni said at Saturday's debate that she would not outright repeal DACA since it's already in place, but she has consistently said that the program should not be expanded to additional groups...

[Fresh Wind]

You misspelled “misspelled”. No hyphen is required.

[CharlesWayneCT]

ironic, isn’t it. Like I just ignored the red squiggly lines that suggested mis-spelled should be misspelled.

although miss-spelled would have been funnier, as the elementary checker doesn’t actually highlight it when you do it that way.

JONI ERNST RELEASES STATEMENT ON THE PRESIDENT’S EXECUTIVE ACTION ON IMMIGRATION - August 28, 2014

Des Moines, IA – Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, Joni Ernst, issued the following statement regarding President Barack Obama taking executive action on immigration:

“Barack Obama came to Washington on the promise of hope and change. Instead, he has governed with divisive arrogance, and a ‘my way or the highway’ attitude.

I strongly urge the President not to sidestep Congress by granting executive amnesty. By acting alone, he will only be encouraging more illegal immigration, and worsening the existing crisis on our border. His actions would also punish the millions of people, around the world, who are waiting in line and trying to come to this country legally. What is even more outrageous for Iowans is that Bruce Braley voted to allow the President to grant executive amnesty.

We all know that Washington is broken and out of touch. What is most alarming is that instead of fighting to change Washington, Bruce Braley is rubberstamping it. When I’m in the Senate, I will fight every day to change the direction Washington is taking out country, and replace Washington values with proven Iowa common sense.”

Bruce Braley Voted Against A Bill That Would Prevent President Obama From Issuing An Executive Order Declaring Amnesty For Illegal Immigrants. “Passage of the bill that would bar any federal agency from issuing, after July 30, 2014, policies that would expand the number of immigrants eligible for deferred action, the 2012 executive memorandum on Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, unless explicitly authorized by law — effectively blocking deportation relief from being provided to any additional illegal immigrants. It also would prohibit the federal government from newly authorizing deferred action for any class of immigrants who do not have lawful immigration status.”(H.R. 5272, CQ Vote #479: Passed 216-192: R 212-11; D 4-181, 8/1/14, Braley Voted Nay)

Bad link!

[mythenjoseph]

The link to 24ahead.com ?

[SgtHooper]

Yes, the one you provided.

[smoothsailing]

Here’s what “mythenjoseph” was trying to provide a link to:

http://24ahead.com/amnesty-supporters-bruce-braley-and-joni-ernst-battle-over-d

It’s a sloppy anti-Joni Ernst hit piece masquerading as a critique of a Washington Times news article.

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/sep/28/joni-ernst-bruce-braley-spar-over-immigration-in-f/?page=1

“24ahead.com” also is opposed to the TEA party movement and recommends that Democrats support the TEA Party movement since it’s “in effect serving the interests of the Democrats”.

Those two are RINOs that is for sure and to find who is a RINO is go check how, or with party they voted. If they voted mostly with the rats than they are RINOs, that is for sure. Both Collins and Snowe voted mostly with the rats. Collins I believe run for reelection in 2012, so she was carefully not to vote with the rats. Here is the Senate link where you can check the votes (It goes back to 1989)

Roll call votes

I took a screen grab from your link and notice what it says in small print at the end

The only people withholding votes for a Conservative like Joni are the fags, and their hags.
