What you’re saying about one man deciding something makes no sense. That’s obvioulsy true that one man can’t decide an issue, unless we’re talking about Obama and his executive amnesty that is. But people have positions. By your logic, if I can’t criticize Cruz for being liberal on legal immigration because he can’t control it anyway, then why can we praise him for being good on the Second Amendment? He doesn’t control that either. As a Senator, he has one voice and one vote. On the Gang of Eight bill, he used his voice forcefully against the bill and voted against the bill. But in debate over the bill he also used his voice and vote to strike against not even reducing legal immigration, but simply capping it at very high level. It wasn’t high enough for him!

There is no confusion about legal and illegal immigration. Cruz has been good on the latter, though surely a man as smart as he is knows that legalization without citizenship would not be able to stand. But on the former, Cruz is quite liberal.

As far as an agenda goes, I really don’t understand this whole hero worship. Is Cruz infallible to you? Is he perfect? Is he beyond criticism?

And I ask you again, what do you think is going to happen if we continue a legal immigration policy that imports millions each decade, the majority of which are natural Democrats?

LOL! You don't have to worry about it. The adults will send money to candidates that need to win.

Some people get locked in on a tiny little hobby horse and miss the big picture.

I'll keep sending cash.
