Conservative Group To Launch Ad Supporting Senate Immigration Bill

By Lisa Mascaro July 7, 2013 WASHINGTON -- As an overhaul of immigration laws shifts to the House, a right-leaning group is launching a new television ad campaign Monday that will call on House lawmakers -- and, implicitly, resistant Republicans -- to support the Senate-passed “border surge” as part of “conservative immigration reform."

The ad seeks to influence rank-and-file lawmakers as House Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) convenes Republicans behind closed doors to assess how the GOP majority will respond to the bipartisan Senate bill.

Many House Republicans oppose the legislation because it includes a 13-year citizenship path for immigrants here without legal status. But influential party leaders think other rank-and-file lawmakers may be interested in a compromise that could help the party’s outreach to the growing Latino electorate.

There’s a radio ad running on WLS radio soothe talking about border security first and other semi lies. It turns out the group was started by the teenager who founded Facebook.

Former Minnesota senator, Norm Coleman (R.) is a bad piece of work. A transplant from Brooklyn to Minnesota, he was a registered Demoncrat up to 1996. He lost his senate seat to comedian Al Franken in a RINO vs. socialist contest.

Ryan and Rubio picked some real flea-ridden dogs to lie down with...RINO dogs who comprise this dangerous group funding the nation-wide pro-amnesty push...dangerous to our Republic, of course.

Dims are like muslims they will lie and cheat to attain their goals. I have long suspected that some have switched parties and voted “more conservative” in order to build credentials as “conservative Republicans” that can be used to bring the right down when the time was right. It is all out war and they are the children of the original liar, Satan.

As a conservative I could never lie long enough nor debase myself by pretending to be a lib.
