John McCain Leads Liberal Republican Attacks On Scott Walker’s Immigration Stance

"Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker has clearly awakened the Washington establishment beast.

Not only is the liberal media and establishment right-of-center coming out guns-a-blazing at Walker over his pro-American worker position on legal immigration, but now Sen. John McCain (R-AZ)—the most pro-amnesty Republican there is, someone who worked for years with the late Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA) on immigration—is leading a charge against Walker’s new position.

“I think most statistics show that they fill part of the workforce that are much needed. We have, and I’m a living example of, the aging population. We need these people in the workforce legally,” McCain said when asked about Walker’s position by mainstream media reporters, according to the openly liberal Talking Points Memo’s Sahil Kapur.

“I do,” McCain added when asked if he worries Walker’s position makes the GOP look “anti-immigrant.”

“I do,” McCain said:

And I think that one of the biggest mistakes that Mitt Romney made in his campaign was his comment about “self-deport[ation].” Look, the reality is we are losing the support of the Hispanic community. The reality is the fastest growing part of our population in America is the Hispanic community. We need to address the issue. And we need to do it in a constructive fashion, or we do not win the 2016 election. I can’t be more specific.

McCain is likely to face a primary challenge from either Rep. Matt Salmon (R-AZ) or state Sen. Kelli Ward due to the fact he’s abandoned conservative principles on so many major issues—immigration chief among them."......

....”the next president and the next Congress need to make decisions about a legal immigration system that’s based on, first and foremost, on protecting American workers and American wages,” Walker said “.....

Well that sounds like the same talk we've heard for years......nothing new there.... So just how does he plan convince the Congressional dingbats that are all in for the Global Freeworkforce Borders.

We need to be more direct with questions rather give these candidates a stage to say what we already know is the problem....we need to know how THEY'RE going to move Congress to act????...who do they expect will stand now and then with them on the issues they want to address if they become President???

What are they going to do that's efficient and effective enough to get the work done with Congress?? I say this because I really am fast convinced our Government and ANY Administration is fully focused on the International Stage first and foremost.....and their next election to keep their seats and do their supporters favors in order to keep everyone in WAshington in their wealth and comfort zones.

I'm equally convinced that more powers need to be given back to the states....period...because that is where things will get done and distributed accordingly...as well as local.

My gripe is not with legal immigration, but the State Dept.’s unholy alliance with the UN bringing in 100’s of 1,000’s of “Refugees” with little to no vetting that legal immigrants have to go through. This should be strictly case by case. If your country is such a hellhole, how is that my problem??? America cannot survive much longer at the hands of all these D&R Traitors who have made it our problem.

I find it interesting how the media wants to believe that a candidate’s change with respect to a certain issue during the campaign is always a genuine change of heart, despite the history of such changes, where the candidate usually changes their words but not their actions.

“With no constructive place to go, they’re going to end up in a destructive place,” Noorani said. “They’re heading further right than Mitt Romney.”

I like a bit of comedy with my morning coffee. :)
