As a Paulestinian, how do you rationalize Rand standing with Yertl McConnell on so many issues? Is that like the tactic where Muslims can lie for the good of Islam? Ted Cruz has explained his stance on TPA. It’s easy to find. Every once in awhile you’re going to be on the same side as a president of an opposing party, that’s how the government works. And I love how you call H1-B the OUTSOURCING visa instead of the “helping US industry build things” visa. Even in Texas we can’t always find all the technical workers we need locally. Are you an American Indian (aka Native American) or did your family come here from somewhere else?
Can’t believe you guys actual reply to these wingnuts. Ted Cruz nefariously supporting the Obama agenda; Cruz supporting illegal immigration; Ted Cruz acting unconstitutionally???? WTF??? Ignore them, they’ll go away. -:)
Rand Paul, Mr. Anti-DC, killed any chance he had when he endorsed McConnell- Paul’s dead in the water.
Ted Cruz is picking up the survivors.

If you can’t find IT workers locally- even in Texas?, WTH do you need to recruit form India when we have unemployed citizens with families, unemployed newly graduated students with debt up to their eyeballs, etc.? How about recruiting some of those American Citizens....
“Are you an American Indian (aka Native American) or did your family come here from somewhere else?” Really? That is the argument for throwing open the floodgate for immigrants? Oh, and yes my family came here from somewhere (actually on the Mayflower), but throughout the years immigration has fluctuated depending on the needs of the country, not Google or Facebook. I feel my ancestors came and took risks and sacrificed for this country...so yeah, I think American citizens should have first dibs—and they are not getting it when Disney and Edison are making their IT people train foreign workers to replace them...
Seriously, given the country’s abysmal growth numbers revised down for first quarter, published this morning, do we really need to be importing workers to take available jobs??
It is obvious that Barry wants to flood America with foreigners—both legal and illegal to transform the country—its voting block it’s culture, etc.. So is it really wise to simply dismiss as “every once in a while you’re going to be on the same side as a president of opposing party, that’s how government works.” Geez theses days the GOPe are voting with Obama at every turn...and unfortunately, all too often that includes Ted Cruz.
BTW, did you know that the H-1B visa program can (and, therefore, likely will) expand to other occupations....more foreign workers coming here filling non-IT jobs...I don’t see how that helps “build things”...A new executive order was just signed this week to bump spouses of H-1B visa workers to the head of the line for jobs..no mention made of limiting them to IT jobs. No mention of shortages, just doing it because he can.
Oh, and I am not a Paulestian or a troll (been here longer than most), but I call em like I see em, and I don’t like Cruz’s stand on several issues.
He may be the nominee, and I will vote for him if he is, but I can’t make excuses some of his positions.
Bingo pal! This bull shi’ite about the H1B visa and the TPA from the paul crowd is nothing but puke.
Re: “Even in Texas we can’t always find all the technical workers we need locally.”
Some companies solve that the old fashioned way...
Higher pay.
The median wage for USA information technology workers has stagnated since 2000.
The H-1B visa quota was massively increased in 1999.
