WASHINGTON — Eight senators who have spent weeks trying to write a bipartisan bill to overhaul immigration laws have privately agreed on the most contentious part of the draft — how to offer legal status to the nation's 11 million illegal immigrants.

Rubio should be finished for anyone willing to do the minimal amount of research. He is pro UN as well, and UN over the US.

ALL OF THIS IS ANNOYING AND AMPLE REASON FOR DITCHING AMNESTY: (1) Illegals scoff at US laws, (2) ride the gravy train w/ forged/stolen ID's; (3) are educated at our expense; (4) get sucked-up by vote crazed pols exchanging tax-paid freebies for votes.

THE AMNESTY GAME IS FIXED But what is really annoying is that illegals and pols are USING taxpayers in their offensive games to benefit themselves.---to diminsh and demean others --- to advance themselves on the backs of working class Americans.

Ohaha has played this game all his life----he sees illegals as the way to drive his legacy----the rest of us are all pawns in this evil game. /// FINANCING OUR OWN DEMISE Illegals getting college-educated on our dime will get US govt jobs-----taking orders from their Third World masters to tear down the US govt....from within.

NO NO NO---no free college education for any Dreamer (or their parents) who support the America-hating LaRaza. Here's why.

====================================================

BLOOD-CURDLING LA RAZA STUDIES ONCE TAUGHT IN ARIZONA SCHOO La Raza Studies does not even try to sugar-coat its anti-America agenda and its bloodthirsty plans to kill off Americans : These shocking quotes are taken directly from A LA Raza textbook "Occupied America" (pg. 167): “Supporters would execute all white males over age 16,” (also known as the Plan of San Diego). LA Raza school textbook chapter from “Occupied America,” by Rodolfo Acuña, includes a speech given by university professor Jose Angel Gutierrez: “We have got to eliminate the gringo, and if worst comes to the worst, we have got to kill him,” (pg. 323).

La Raza books also talk about the need for the govt of Mexico to re-take seven states in SW United States. so that the Southwest USA would become a Chicano nation. And judging by Ramos' activities---La Raza is establishing a beachhead in NJ.

YOU ARE PAYING FOR THIS In 2005 alone, $7.9 million in taxpayer funding was given to "La Raza charter schools" via the US Dept of Education grants. These charter schools stress Latino culture, the Spanish language, the re-conquest of the American Southwest, the establishment of the mythical Atzlan on US soil, and even Aztec math.

In addition to using taxpayer funds to enforce the teaching of murdering Americans and latino violence, the federally-funded La Raza organization operates 100 charter schools across America.

====================================================

The Dems tried to pump up San Antonio Mayor Juan Castro (his twin brother is a Congressman) at the 2012 convention by making him a Dem keynoter....but ol' Juan made a huge mistake when he genially introduced his mother---Maria “Rosie” Castro.

Mamasita Castro is a busy activist---a radical ethno-centric anti-assimilationist---a key figure in the activities of “La Raza."

JUST ANOTHER LATINO UNDERWORLD KINGPIN HOLDING PUBLIC OFFICE God only knows the how much govt money da Mayor and Mamasita La Raza are scamming. Every govt budget, agency, and bank account under San Antonio Mayor Juan Castro's control should be examined with a fine-tooth comb for govt fraud, racketeering, conspiracy, collusion, nepotism, secret LLC accounts, and money laundering, wire fraud, tax evasion, etc, etc, etc.

=======================================

SCHOOL BOARD NUT CASE Adelita Grijalva is the woman on the Arizona school board pimping La Raza indoctrination programs in Tuscon schools. Adelita is all up in arms about Raza Studies getting tossed via the AZ state legislature's action...she is the daughter of Raul Grijalva (D-AZ-7) who was just narrowly re-elected to our US Congress.

Raul Grijalva is one of Mexico’s most productive and loyal representatives in our Congress....aiding and abetting building a Third World on US soil.

Mmmmmmm....those father daughter chats must be interesting.

Every “compromise” in the proposed immigration bill by the RINO’s working on this bill, e.g.:

“According to aides familiar with the closed-door negotiations, the bill would require illegal immigrants to register with Homeland Security Department authorities, file federal income taxes for their time in America and pay a still-to-be-determined fine. They also must have a clean law enforcement record.”

will be challenged in a liberal federal court as being against the human rights of these “undocumented” aliens and will be declared unconstitutional by the federal court effectively giving every illegal alien [instant] citizenship, e.g. liberal socialist voting rights (new demorat) and every concession in the proposed bill will have been for naught and the liberal socialist get EVERYTHING they have wanted from the very beginning and the RINO’s get played like a bunch of bed-wetters they are!!

Its coming, wait for it . . .

“Where did this 11 million number come from? It had been stuck at 12 million no matter how many came it for around a decade. And now it has dropped by a million. I still believe the number is closer to 30 million than 11. “

That 11 million number comes from people like the gang of 8 and the media, because they know that if the public understood how many aliens there are in their country they would be PISSED OFF!

What does 20 million illegal aliens actually look like?

Yep, he comes across as a guy who tries to anticipate what conservatives want to hear, but not as someone with the core convictions. I sense that Cruz truly believes in what he says.

But they will get to vote, so all of that can be taken care of within a year.

But are they allowed to vote? If so, the resulting Dem super-majority will quickly overturn any such restrictions.

Actor Richard Ney (son in "Mrs Miniver") who became a financial consultant once said: "Hidden behind the facade of pompous jargon and noble affections, there is more sheer larceny per square foot on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange than any place else in the world."

He could well have said that about today's Washington.

We in Arizona are SOOO proud of McCain/Flake. How can they overlook the disastrous consequences to their constituents?

The only consolation I have is that I didn't vote for either.

It's time for the Republican Party to go away if this actually happens.

Yep. This shouldn't even be an issue. We already have immigration laws. Use them! Who says we need an amnesty bill?

Shouldn't these creeps in Washington being doing something more productive? Millions of AMERICANS are unemployed and begging the government for food.

They're throwing us under the bus for the Hispanic vote.These Republicans THINK we'll all vote for them anyway - or "The other guy will win."
I'll vote only when there's a Conservative to vote FOR. Otherwise, I'd go unrepresented whether I voted or not, so why bother?

I can see why the Republicans are so low in the polls. The tax slaves who've always depended on them to represent us have been stabbed in the back by these RINOs too many times.

A picture is worth a thousand words.

Rubio and McCain w/ Menendez and Schumer---says a lot.

==========================================

This picture speaks louder.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi recently told Chris Wallace on Fox News, "It is almost a false argument to say that we have a spending problem." "And besides, we have to subsidize all our new citizens who will vote---and make me Majority Leader,again---not to mention the $$billions in foreign aid we will exchange for votes."

Sanchez, Under Secy of Commerce for Intl Trade, and Emilio Sanchez, president and CEO of VOXXI at the Ntl Assoc of Latino Elected and Appt Officials Gala in Washington.

it will be a time to decide who qualifies to stay here and who doesn’t , and being here should be a small part of that.

Any legislation that allows the lawbreakers to stay and work here, the object of their crime, is an amnesty. A path to citizenship is just an extra benefit.

We must not only prevent the Democrats and some moderate Republicans from hijacking the meaning of the word amnesty, but the public must be made aware about the true impact of an amnesty. The Heritage Foundation concluded that the cost of amnesty would be $2.6 trillion just for increased entitlement program costs. And the number of additional LEGAL immigrants who would join those who were the recipients of amnesty through chain migration, i.e., family reunification, would approach 70 million over a 20-year period, assuming there are only 12 million illegal aliens. We cannot assimilate such numbers. An amnesty would destroy the United States of America with the stroke of a pen.

That's kind of iffy at this point. When Obama's de facto dreamers protested the Michigan SOS, one of their primary complaints about not getting driver's licenses was that they felt singled out when voting.

Rubio is finished in my eyes just for working on this with Schumer and Durbin.

Yep. If the RINOs push him on us in 2016, the Republicans are going to lose. The majority of AMERICAN tax payers will just stay home if he tries to pull off this political $$ stunt $$ in exchange for the foreign votes.

We don't even need to discuss immigration. We already have immigration laws. We don't need anymore social dependants. Enough of this pandering at our expense.

Originally, Rubio had a real tough proposal, but I wonder how much of that is no longer part of this one.

Amnesty in the US is high priority for the NWO folks. Leaving the Southern border open purposefully was designed and implemented in the 80s to dilute the demographics of American patriotism. Amnesty is the culmination of what some might call a treasonous act against the American people. It may not qualify as treason but it certainly falls under the law as aiding and abetting crime and those in DC should be held accountable. I'm not anticipating those in DC will suddenly concern themselves with the law.

First you make them legal, then you speed up their right to citizenship and voting.

One step at a time.
