You really are lost if you believe a word of that.



So, wait.... are you telling me that I shouldn't believe Ted Cruz? Should I not believe him then, or should I not believe him now?



Ted Cruz, 5/21/13: "If this amendment is adopted to the current bill, the effect would be that those 11 million under this current bill would still be eligible for RPI status. They would still be eligible for legal status and indeed, under the terms of the bill, they would be eligible for LPR status as well so that they are out of the shadows, which the proponents of this bill repeatedly point to as their principal objective to provide a legal status for those who are here illegally to be out of the shadows. ... I don't want immigration reform to fail. I want immigration reform to pass. And so I would urge people of good faith on both sides of the aisle, if the objective is to pass common sense immigration reform that secures the borders, that improves legal immigration, and that allows those who are here illegally to come in out of the shadows. Then we should look for areas of bipartisan agreement and compromise to come together. And this amendment, I believe, if this amendment were to pass, the chances of this bill passing into law would increase dramatically."

#40 as was described at the time by every leading publication and broadcaster at the time YES he was attempting to kill the bill with a poison pill amendments.

If you can’t or won’t admit it there is no help for you.

If you are going to take Donnie trump’s advisors word of that of Mike Lee and Jeff Sessions on the issue you don’t belong here.

Head over to D.U. or KOS. You’ll fit right in.
