Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldnt make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan |

ISIS is a study in oppression and brutality that is conducting ethnic cleansing against religious minorities in the region, that is targeting and persecuting Christians, and that is attempting to subject the local population to the strictest forms of Sharia Law, ...Question: "How many democRAT senators heard this, agreed with the basic facts and thought to themselves ... 'so, what's the problem'?"
To: SoConPubbie
This is a very tricky piece of legislation. The hard part will be to limit it specifically to ISIS, because under no circumstances should congress be able to *easily* strip citizenship.
Because you can bet your bottom dollar that Democrats would abuse it to strip conservatives of theirs. Probably on the whim of a Democrat POTUS.
Another great reason to reduce the power of the office of the presidency to constitutional levels.

Senator Cruz, the problem lies much deeper.
Even if American ISIS terrorists lose their passports, new ones will be generated inside the country — Islam and its evil teaching is self-generating right here at home.
How can you allow a group of people to stay inside the country who all take their marching orders from one book, the Koran, that openly teaches that infidels should have their heads removed?
Infidels? That’s you and I and many millions of American citizens who are in danger as long as these muslims live among us.
Go challenge my logic.

BAD MOVE.
Obama would rewrite this with an Executive Order that would make it citizen-revocation for any group HE arbitrarily calls 'terrorist'.
Like the NRA or the Tea Party.
DO NOT SET THIS PRECEDENT.

Cruz's legislation will have to somehow cut off all wiggle room to the State Department and the courts.
There are already numerous "expatriating acts" on the books that are basically ignored today, such as serving in a foreign government, voluntarily serving in a foreign military, naturalizing as a foreign citizen. Come passport renewal time, the US citizen who does this stuff only has to sign an affidavit that it was not his intention to lose US citizenship - and all is forgiven.
Of course, the fact that Cruz's bill will never get out of Harry Reid's Senate, makes the above quite moot.
