"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton
 
"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan
 
"A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792
 
"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams
 
"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

How’s this for reform — round up the criminal invaders and toss their collective asses out of the country.

Dont ever talk about being against a growing and increasingly intrusive government again, Rand, because “immigration reform” aka amnesty will guarantee up to 50 million new democrats & customers of the state.

outlining a proposal that would grant some form of legal status to the estimated 11 million illegal immigrants

11 million in California? Or nationwide? Other estimates put it 20,000,000-40,000,000. Shouldn't we debate using the real numbers?

It's like how the low information voters believe 24% of the population is homosexual so therefore their agenda items are pressing matters.

to embrace the cause of immigration reform

Embrace the cause?

The cause is open borders that the FED continues to be lax in securing.

The cause is failure of the FED to enforce EXISTING laws.

The cause is politicians more interested in representing illegals than in representing their constituents.

The cause is politicians who are getting some kind of payback for ignoring the 70% of Americans opposed to amnesty for illegals.

Support a new shell game bunch of laws that will have securing the border dumped in the trash can 5 minutes after it passes?

Senator Paul, you, like Senator Rubio, are either naive or you are in on the shell game. What do you get out of this legislation, Sentor?

To paraphrase Michelle Malkin, why does immigration reform have to be tied to the government’s Constitutional duty to control our boarders?

Close and secure the border, and oh yeah shut the F*** up until you get that done! No citizenship for illegal boarder crossers, only an Idiot or traitor rewards invaders!

No. No new laws. We already have all the laws in place, and nobody enforcing them. What is the point of new laws?

Rubio and Paul and others never clearly explained that.

It would also be interesting if the law was written in such a way that it would STOP at 11,000,000 Illegals being given Amnesty.

The Dems are LOW-BALLING the number...lying as usual...we need to call them out.

“Rand Paul calls on conservatives to embrace immigration reform”

Embrace this, Rand Paul.

Yeah, I think we should embrace immigration reform too.

Reform it to the way it used to be, when we enforced borders, didn’t advertise in Mexico to “Hey, come on up north! We gots lots of free money, goods and services to give you!”.

Re-form it to permit as many LEGAL immigrants that want to go through the paperwork, wait in line, have skills to offer, employers posting a bond for them.

Re-form it to take all the money that the illegals are collecting from the taxpayers, and spend it on some additional immigration clerks to process the applications turned in through our foreign embassies by people who seriously want to become citizens, or have a good mutually beneficial reason to come to the USA temporarily for a few months or a few years.

But reform it the way all the damn politicians and lefty activists? Hell No!
