Note to self.
Nearing 550 posts and not a single GOP fan will address the GOP admitting it will pass amnesty upon taking a majority.
Frauds. Every last one of them. Cheshire frauds.
Note to self: Norm is a serious weenie and should be ignored.
I will say a bit about amnesty (Im late to this thread and have not read much of it....)
I also live in New Mexico which if you look on a map borders a country known as Mexico so I have some skin in the game.
Amnesty is a catch all word which no longer has much meaning.
Even if the people you hate (your term GOPe) want pure amnesty they know they aint getting it....but being politicians they see lots of votes from Latinos of all stripes and that is what they want...
GW Bush who you also hate I bet fought for amnesty, lost and started erecting a fence on the border
It needs funding to finish it. Now especially since Ebola. I think you will see a build the fence first move from Republicans, then a change in the laws regarding citizenship.
if they do approach it piece meal it will sell better than the stupid comprehensive stuff.
What changes come about is hard to say ...people are vocally against pure amnesty and they feel Ronald Reagan got taken when he did it.
The mood of the country is changing fast so the politics of all this will also change fast
God only knows who will have how much power after the election but with luck the newly elected Republicans will see the vote as an anti Obama vote.
It looks like one to me.
Therefore they will not be inclined to work with Barack on anything and will instead allow him his much earned lame duck status.
Who the hell knows what Obama will do ....Its anybodies guess.
but I think you will see some mouthing of Amnesty from some republicans (the translation is “Latinos vote for us ...we don’t really hate you” ) maybe a few small moves will occur but nothing major...
That is what I think
