Jeb Bush Suggests Republicans Should Pass Amnesty if They Win Back Senate

Even though Republicans may take back the Senate by running against amnesty, former Florida Governor Jeb Bush pushed amnesty legislation while stumping for North Carolina Republican Senate candidate Thom Tillis on Wednesday.

Bush, according to the New York Times, reportedly said that comprehensive immigration reform "will restore and sustain economic growth for this country." And even though a recent Gallup poll found that illegal immigration is now the top concern among Republicans, Bush said that if immigration reform is "framed in that way, I don’t think there’s a big debate in the Republican Party about the need to do this."

“I don’t think there’s a big debate in the Republican Party about the need to do this.”


And that is exactly why we have a problem with the Republican Party.

In the meantime we have a law that is not being enforced.

If they do get a new law passed, the probability that they will selectively enforce that one, too, is 100%.

And they wonder why we aren’t falling over ourselves to send them money.

I don’t want a big debate about it. I just want the federal government to enforce our existing immigration laws.

One in five American adults don’t have jobs.

Do you understand that JEB?

Again. One in five American adults don’t have jobs.

Bush’s divided in his loyalty... elite friends at his exclusive country club said they wanted more cheap labor... and he wants to be a hero in the Hispanic community... Weak ego needs much praise - the McCain syndrome....

ONE IN FIVE

It’s time for Jeb to join with liberal elites and become a Democrat... he would be happy with his own kind.

I’d add him to the list just for the enjoyment of crossing him off.

Under Obama?

Obama: A Country Without Rule of Law 'Will Not Succeed' 28 Jul 2014

What if they passed a law that says that they are not allowed to enforce the law, and they didn't enforce the new law?

” In the meantime we have a law that is not being enforced. “

And it never will be.

If amnesty is passed, 10 million more will bust through our borders in just a few years.

Jeb talks like the DNC put him in charge of their voter registration drive.

Amnesty does not give Citizenship. They all should be deported by an Adult in DC.

Tillis is running the world's worst campaign as it is. But having Jeb Bush say this at one of his campaign events is about the worst thing that could happen to him.

Tillis should be beating that stupid Kay Hagan easily by 10 points even with the Liberaltarian plant running on a third Party line. Instead, he is behind running a campaign with little money and a Karl Rove style to it. He is trying to not offend anyone - including the Democrats.

Meanwhile, the Dims are pouring money into the state and running Commie Hagan to the right of Tillis. The ruse is apparently working. It doesn't appear Tillis is trying to change the subject to 0bama or how Hagan has voted for his fascist policies 100% of the time.

Sad. This seat should be a Republican lock.

One option would be for a Republican President to announce an Executive Order to grant citizenship to the people who have been waiting in lines for years to LEGALLY become citizens. Amnesty NOW!

These kind of of comments do nothing to motivate conservatives to
vote. Why can’t Jeb keep his trap shut?
