The GOP wants amnesty as much as the Democrats do. They just have to make a semblance of an appearance of fighting it, so as to keep their base somewhat happy.

I think the GOP *knows* that shutting down the government would not destroy them like the drive-bys say it will. That’s just the excuse they’re being given to allow them to not go the defunding route.

The last time the republicans shut down the government they gained more seats in the house in the next election!

Our newly elected RINO has, already come out in favor of a new guest worker program for agriculture. Like we don’t already have 10 of thousands of Mexicans in Washington state to pick fruit.
