Let us not forget that it was (R-TX) President George W Bush in 1994 that pushed thru handing “Food Stamps” to hispanic illegal aliens in the USA.

Did he forget or did he just exclude those Canadians that come into the USA from “Food Stamps”?

Maybe Jeb Bush and his “sneak across the border to marry Jeb Bush in the USA” Mexican wife can tell us about that.....

What is really frustrating is that people see the danger the country is in, they take action in electing what they think are conservative legislators only to find out it’s more of the same.

It’s like ted Cruz is a stroke of luck...but the rest, just a bunch of usual suspect republican menaces.

I don’t see anything other than this country reaching the end of the rail line at full speed. America does not have the resources (people) to be able to right itself.

I am going to vote in the primaries to oust these progressive republicans (where I can) and then I will vote for any third party that puts forth a Constitutional Conservative to run (if the rinoids put forth another leftist like bush or rubio). I will vote but not for a liberal from either party. I am not a republican... I quit that party long ago... I am a Conservative and a Christian and I will vote my values accordingly. This last election was my LAST vote for a progressive republican.

Chambliss and Isaakson ALWAYS cave. They’ll probably be 59 and 60.

I am a Christian and a conservative also. I feel much as you do. While Alabama has a total republican state run government now, we still have the idiot Shelby in the Senate. We need to get rid of him. He was a dim who jumped when he saw the hand writing on the wall years ago for the dims here. But, I am totally fed up with the republicans. I dumped my membership several years ago also. I will not give them a dime. I give only to a certain candidate. Not to a party.

Also add something to the effect of “any ‘yea’ vote hereon shall be construed to be the surrender of any right to appeal or counsel in criminal proceedings.”

Hope for a few Dems to vote with the GOP on this. There are quite a few out there who will not be very happy to go agains the gunowners...

Of course, that is why they have these penny-ante “important gun organizations who support more gun control” at the top of the news nowadays - attempting to pacify the Dems in danger...

I think, given BOston, they need to ban ball bearings, instead.

“Didn’t know that he and Flake are also Mormons like Reid.”

So are the Udall’s although one of them lists his religion as Presbyterian, they were all born into the Mormon faith. But then there’s the good side, when you consider Sen. Mike Lee of Utah. In fact, he’s related to the Udalls.

The Republican primary voters are too uninformed to “primary” anyone out of a nomination. They just lack common sense and political knowledge, but they know how to make money and pay taxes. SC, we can be sure, will stick with Graham in 2014; they really think he is “conservative” and at least they have “heard of him.”

The U.S. Congress does not recognize any recall that may come from the states.

Roger Wicker is a cousin of another old compromiser, Fred Thompson, who danced around in the 2008 primary spotlight. Good actor, just poor politician

That will only work if we are actually willing to go through with it, all the way, and not flip flop come election time with “Oh, but he NEEDS to keep that seat, he’s better than ______.”

That is what they count on.

That is why they stay in power.

Indeed. It started out that way, under Lincoln.

The “progressives” told Reagan that if he would sign the King Holiday bill, blacks would start voting Republican. Do you think he believed that when he signed? I don’t believe there could have been an Obama without the King Holiday bill first.

I’m sure there will be a grandfather clause for the “fast and furious” weapons they got from the Feds while they were still in mexico
