I'm outraged that Republican House members are talking about messing with this terrible amnesty bill - but not really shocked. We know the D.C. crowd, of which most Republicans are members-in-good-standing, want amnesty for illegal aliens, albeit for different reasons. Even discussing this bill is absurd and an insult to Republican voters. Mr. Robinson, you're correct! Kill the bill!

Sad to witness the decline of once ‘venerable’ institutions turned into nothing more than money laundering and favours ops.

I hate the government. Got that NSA?

How many bills has the House voted on and passed only to have the Senate completely ignore them - no committee hearings, no committee markup, and certainly no floor vote?

The only course of action that makes ANY sense, is to do the same - ignore the Senate bill as if it never happened, and continue on with other business that is worth pursuing, if their actually is any.

Of course I’ll call & e-mail my Rep, Messer, but he took Pence’s place and is one of the good ones. Trust but verify, right?

Then they wonder why some Americans are scratching their heads and asking who lies more, Snowden, or this pathetic government we have! Each one uncovers each other’s lies and corruption.

Schmuckie Schumer was so smug and self-righteous on Fox earlier today---warning Boehner Repubs they will be a minority party forever if they dont vote for reform.

SS claims many important voting blocs support reform-----Catholics, evangelicals for example.

But Schumer makes a huge mistake---thinking voters will cast their ballots based on the single issue of reform.

Yes, real Repubs (not RINOS) need to step up to the plate and reassure conservative voters-----but in no way will liberal/progressive Dems get votes based solely on reform.

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

Repubs need to start mining disaffected voters who are incensed about Obama's antics. The stench from this admin's crimes/screw-ups stretches far and wide:

<><> there's the Benghazi stench

<><> Hillary's state dept's coverup of sex scandals---obstructing justice---scrubbing investigations

<><> Holder's DOJ stenches (AP--Rosen--monitoring USSC and Congress' Verizon blackberries)

<><> stench-a-rama: IRS targeting (enraging legions of IRS haters)

<><> IRS stealing 60 thousand medical records

<><> HHS' Sibelius strong-arming Obamacare insurance providers for money

<><> NSA snooping---infuriating millions of young twitter/facebook users

<><> IRS sending $45 Million/that's 32,000 EITC refunds to illegals at ONE address.

<><> Letting Snowden globe-trot w/ US secrets

<><> EPA using phantom email accounts

<><> O/Holder Fast and Furious gun-running to savage drug cartels, got two American border patrol agents killed

<><> Ohaha giving 5 million top security clearance---w/ no oversight as to the Ntl security implications

<><> O using drones to shoot down Americans

<><> the continuing TSA travesties.

<><> Solyndra and other green money-laundries.

It will then go into conference, and the libs will get what they want, while removing anything of substance from the conservative perspective. They will of course throw a few meaningless bones for conservatives so that the repubs can come back to their constituents and brag about what a wonderful victory they won. There will be lot of chest-thumping and grand-standing while they do the underhanded deal-making with the libs. Same old story. They will come to the conservative base and pee on us and tell us its raining.

The chest-thumping and grand-standing of the gopper libs will be especially loud on this one, so they can show that they put up a fight.

They should actually get some lessons from Reid in the senate on how he ignores bills that the House passes.

Only chance to stop the Amnesty bill is for the House not to consider any immigration related bill at all.

Michelle Bachman explained it. ANY House bill no matter if it promises all the border security in the world will be a trojan horse.NO bill at all must come out of the House because it will be merged with the Senate Amnesty and trojan horse bill. Call congress.

Tell them to stop all Amnesty or immigration bills.they are all trojan horse bills. some will promise border security that will never be enforced anyway.

Bachmann explained it . The House will write a border security bill only . then in conference the senate will add the virus and then bring it back to the house. then the conservatives won’t vote for it but democrats will all vote for it so then they only need 10% of republicans to pass Amnesty and the virus that will destroy America. so any bill at all will be added the virus . so best thing is for Boner to not let any immigration bill at all come out of the House. that is the only hope . call boner and the members of the House.

Tom Tancredo echos what Michelle Bachmann said.

Just a few things in this horrible Amnesty bill.

1. Amnesty for 30 million illegals
2. those 30 million new citizens will be allowed to bring in their extended family members from the 3rd world = 50 million more NEW 3rd world immigrants.
3. Amnesty forever to any 3rd world maggot who claims political asylum (any Muslim). Michelle Bachman said this alone could bring in another 50 million 3rd world immigrants. total count 130 million new democrat voters so they can turn the USA into a socialist state.
4. all these new citizens will have more rights than Americans. a $5000 penalty for employers if they hire An American over an amnestied 3rd world maggot
5. democrats import All these 130 million new democrat voters from the 3rd world so that democrats can turn the USA into a socialist/communist state where they will give all your property and money to these immigrants
6. a massive increase in work visas for many many occupations in many fields ,even professional ones
7. The democrats know if they can destroy liberty in the USA then the rest of the world will follow. this is the plan to destroy liberty in the world and install communism worldwide
8. Massive amounts of $ to community organizations to register these immigrants as democrats
9 .A 1200 page obamacare like bill doling out billions to democrat organizations

There are many more but I don't have time to post them all

what are these Senators thinking voting for 1200 pages of communist evil?

Why aren't we out in the street protesting this bill or at least melting the phone lines?

I believe so.

My sources on the Hill tell me that Boehner is personally whipping this behind the scenes.

“this will just get gutted in conference and the Amnesty (or some version of it) will get reinserted.

Don’t play with fire GOP”

That’s the key point

Young people in this country are going to lose any real chance at the American Dream. We have been betrayed. What the Republicans are doing now is just for show.

We oldsters are also doomed, but only because we’re old. The young will have to actually live through the consequences.

The only way to kill the bill is for the House to not pass any immigration related bill at all , even if it’s just a “build a fence” bill because it WILL be merged with Senate Amnesty bill.
