I will not trust Rubio ever again.

Amnesty ain’t gonna happen and the politicos know this.

We gave ten million illegals amnesty back in Reagan’s term and we were told it would never happen again.

Now we’re not buying their story and ain’t going there again.

Rubio took a chance but he was wrong.

He’s out of my radar, not to be trusted.

Our immigration debacle is due to the political elite failing governing 101...PROTECT YOUR BORDERS.

And the American people ain’t going to buy their story anymore.

Damn they hate that.

Thanks, AB.

Bibi looks depressed.

He of course, wipes the floor with Stephy.
In one short visit to Meet the Dperessed, he gets every talking point in HE wants to. My God. what a wonderful , strong man.

Is there anyway we can get Bibi to run for president?Ah, heck, I can dream, can’t I???

If you look back at the progressives of the last 100 years, you will notice that they are not stopped by these setbacks. If they can't get their way, the let an issue 'die' -- but then they resurrect it in 20 years or so to a new audience.

Look at what global climate change has gone through during the last 50 years -- warming, cooling, climate change.

They never quit, and they never apologize for agenda items that turn out to be massive failures. One example: Paper or plastic?

George Will: Wonders when Obama will blame George Bush

Rubio was AWOL during the shutdown letting Cruz take all the hits.

Fox-and-Friends had a clip of Frank Luntz focus group, and these folks are either set-up to say dumb things on tape or are an uninformed stupid, as Luntz’s final quip is about having a Speaker Pelosi because Republicans tried the Government shut(slow) down and because Conservatives don’t dig RINO’s.

Do they not understand that Democrats are eroding the US Constitution that allows for the Individual Freedom and Liberty they’ve been the beneficiaries of?

Looks like Rubio is trying to do a media rehab tour. He finally surfaced after weeks of silence following the Senate amnesty vote. Now, he is back, trying to appear conservative, anti-big government, anti-spending, anti-the-new-normal.

Rubio didn't help himself with conservatives today. He foolishly said he supports McConnell for reelection over his Rep primary challengers instead of just saying it was up to the people of Kentucky.

Rubio tried to do a verbal tap dance on immigration reform and distancing himself somewhat from his own bill. Rubio's true colors are showing. He is an establishment politician. The very fact that he would join McCain and Graham on amnesty is an indication of where he stands and his judgment.

Every time I hear Rubio say that we have a "de facto amnesty now," my blood pressure goes up. If we had a de facto amnesty, then illegal aliens could work without and obstacles; they could receive SS cards; they could travel freely between the US and their home countries; they could receive a green card and eventual citizenship; and on and on. There is no de facto amnesty.

John McCain is the one who made up the term "de facto amnesty" during his 2009 campaign.

So Cruz wasn’t on set live?

&&&&&

Not as long as I was able to watch, which was just a few minutes, because I was so disgusted with CNN’s blatant manipulation of ‘news.’

Rubio supporting McConnell reelection is a bad idea.

Does it really matter? Rubio's rino days area all ahead of him.

Rubio as a conservative is a distant but sad memory.

He's going nowhere with conservatives and he knows it! His only chance is with a dying breed; old, old rinos. He picked the wrong group to join.

And will the media remain silent on the Democrat’s rhetoric that
incite their Constituents to act like hired ruffians?

Rubio is Jeb-lite. Trying to please all factions all the time. It usually gets you nothing.

The Democrats got $millions in pork spending when the shutdown ended and the continuing resolution was passed.

What did the Republicans get?

[Dems have played Snipe Hunt enough to make sure the Pubbies end up holding the bag.]

Answer to my question: Blamed.

HHS has come out with these bogus numbers about 476,000 applying for benefits--just in time for the Sunday shows. The real question is how many actually enrolled in health care insurance in the exchanges.

I have seen figures that the 56,000 who signed on to Obamacare in Washington state were all new Medicaid enrollees. People seem to forget that the projections were that 18 million more people would be shunted to Medicaid as part of Obamacare. i.e., almost half of the uninsured would be covered by Medicaid. Just like food stamps, Obama is trying to sign up as many people as possible for Medicaid. The more people dependent upon government programs, the better it is for the Dems.

Just watching the Stephy show w/o Stephy. They had Pelosi on spewing her hate and venom followed by a heavily edited taped interview with Cruz. It was then followed by Jeb Bush (portrayed as the voice of reason.) The only reason ABC is putting on Cruz vs Bush is to further divide the GOP.

Boehner holds a vote he knows will be some Republicans going along with all the Democrats. They telegraphed this one from the moment it was said to be a last minute proposal coming from the Senate.
