Marco Rubio in Spanish: Obama’s First Executive Amnesty ‘Important,’ People ‘Benefiting from It’
breitbart.com ^ | 4/17/15 | Matthew Boyle

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), a 2016 GOP presidential candidate, said he believes that President Barack Obama’s first executive amnesty for so-called DREAMers—the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA)—is “important” and he won’t reverse it himself if elected president. He delivered these remarks in a Spanish-language interview he gave to Univision’s Jorge Ramos.

“I believe DACA is important. It can’t be terminated from one moment to the next, because there are already people benefiting from it,” Rubio said in Spanish on Ramos’s television program, according to an English translation provided by the media service Grabien. “But yes, it is going to have to end. It can’t be the permanent policy of the United States, and I don’t think that’s what they’re asking either. I think everyone prefers immigration reform.”

Ramos followed up, according to the translation, by asking: “But then, to clarify, you would put an end to DACA once immigration reform is approved, but what would happen, Senator, if there is no immigration reform; would you cancel DACA anyway?”

Rubio answered that DACA will end only when a legislative substitute with the exact same or similar policy prescriptions—a legislative amnesty for illegal alien minors—is implemented. He also said in Spanish that, if elected president, he believes that America cannot deport illegal aliens here in the country right now, and he expects a legislative solution will be implemented that essentially has all the parts of the massively controversial “Gang of Eight” bill that he would pass piece-by-piece.

How does popping a kid out after illegally crossing a border make that kid a citizen? Is that the way it works in other countries?
Cruz or lose. I would rather have a 100 percent conservative win the primary because then we can see where the country really stands after the election. If he wins great. IF he loses, then we know where the country stands and have no illusions about it.

And this is the best one out there. Every damned one of them is intent on creating that permanent Socialist/Democrat voting majority so that the Republican Party, now merely a useful appendage of the Democrat Party will become a purely local phenomenon in some southern states then disappear altogether. These men are not stupid. Are they all suborned? Do they all think or know that there is a place for them in the Permanent Socialist/Democrat State?

WHAT ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO FOLLOWED THE LAW IN ENTERING THIS COUNTRY!?

WHAT ABOUT US BEING A NATION THAT RESPECTS THE LAW!?

These attempts to steal our nation occurring right before our eyes if not addresses by the lawful components WILL eventually bring about a terrible bloodletting.

Another way of saying it “the constitution be damned”.

And this Rube is a front runner over Cruz? That’s hard to believe.

Paul lost me with his deal with McConnell. Rubio lost me with amnesty. Walker seems squishy on amnesty.

Cruz or lose!

Well, that puts the cherry on top of the sundae for me. I don’t want a president yammering to a crowd of illegal aliens in a foreign language. My tag line expresses it succinctly.

How is it, that a candidate running for president, speaks in another language to potential voters? Should that not raise red flags regarding loyalty? Should he not also major in his American heritage rather than his Cuban heritage?

“Cross him off the list.”
*****************************************************************************************
The duplicitous, lying Rubio crossed himself off my list long ago. I don’t believe a word that comes out of his smarmy lips!

So Rubio might uphold the constitution if someone doesn’t benefit from shredding it?

REAL immigration reform:

Seal the borders.

Deport everyone who is in the country illegally.

Repeal the 1965 and 1986 immigration laws.

Years ago Rubio stepped in a turd and since then has been working to clean it off his shoes, now he goes and rolls around in it. Dumbazz.

Rubio got pounded big-time a couple of years ago over his support for amnesty. Many here swore off of Rubio at that point (me too). He has since tried to clean up his image...but he didn’t fool us.

And now he’s back to his same old shenanigans ...but saying it in Spanish. He’s a snake in the grass.
