Maybe he means someone like Ronald Reagan. Not some reality TV queer.
WTF is with all this immigatrion issue? You cross our border or over-stay you visas, deport! The laws are on the books in the national register.
Gotta give Trump props for outing Rubio on this issue. I mean, lots of us knew this about him, but now it’s getting wider play.
If there were an honest and anonymous poll of what American citizens and legal immigrants thought of the illegal invasion I would venture 90% support Trump’s honest assessment of the illegal problem. Any republican that is going to pander to illegal invaders should change party to democrat. They won’t get my vote and I’m sure I’m not the only one that feels this way.
[[Our broken immigration system is something that needs to be solved, and comments like this move us further from – not closer to – a solution.]]
What liberals like Rubio don’t get apparently is that our system is NOT broken- Our gun laws are not lacking, Our citizenship laws are NOT faulty- NONE of them are enforced- period!
Wish there was a way to get a message to Trump to tell him to respond that hwat Rubio said is liberal speak, and that our immigration laws are just fine- but it’s people like Rubio who make it IMPOSSIBLE to enforce them, and that’s why we have the massive problems with ILLEGALS that we have today
Are there ANY REAL TRUE GOP candidates left besides Cruz and possibly Trump?
I hope Rubio doesn’t go into Hillary Silence mode about Mr. Sanchez out there in San Francisco. I know Jeb would rather talk about peas in guacamole.
This is so bizarre, this kind of suicide, or whatever this is, just doesn't happen like this, this is truly freaky.
I don't get Rubio, but I know that he is a big deal, he just committed suicide for long term, top level politics.
Thanks Donald. Sealed the deal on Marco here
I was in a wavering maybe if he made it to the general election. Nope.
Trump can serve as a truth, thought, and honesty meter when it comes to the other candidates reactions to his comments.
The Rubio I met when he was first campaigning for election, is not this one.
He came to The Villages, to speak, during another event and pretty much enticed, us and many others over to hear him speak about how he was going to put a stop to what was going on in Washington.
He lied.
It is revealing how many of the corporations are rearing their ugly er, rears about this issue. Faces? Oh, I was smelling their true colors.
To be fair (why, I don’t know) Rubio might have thought he could make a difference in Washington.
Myself, I think it will take decades...if not more. And it will take more than one person to accomplish a “clean up”.
Do Bush, Pataki, Perry and Rubio all have the same speechwriter and media team, or does it just seem like it?
You are on a pleasure cruise ship and discover a tidal wave is about to wipe out two islands about a mile away. You are close enough to rescue the people only on one, but not both islands. Island #1 has 100 adults who are vacationing there, and island #2 has only a babysitter who is watching a small child while the parents are scuba diving.
Which island do you choose and why?
The answers are quite telling. Not the choice itself, but the reasoning they offer exposes quite a bit of who they are as a person.
I'm looking forward to this primary. So far Cruze has my vote. The Donald is serving as that question that draws out who they really are.
Being a crony for the CoC must pay well for his future.
I wonder how Eric Cantor is doing these days? Oh yes he landed a golden parachute $3.5m job on Wall Street for being the lobbyist best friend on Capital Hill.
Marco is spending the night at Mitt’s house with Christie as well. Maybe they decided Marco will be Christie BP? Mitt seems to love the Christie in spite of past betrayals of monumental proportions
The Bush family is establishment because it echoes and serves the needs of the establishment, in this case borders open enough to guarantee cheap wages. It is not surprising that Jeb Bush follows this line nor is it surprising that Marco Rubio follows this line because beyond being Hispanic, Rubio was mentored by Jeb Bush. They are all drawing their advisors and their speechwriters from the same pool and they all know that to deviate from political correctness on this issue is to drive them outside of the pool, the money pool that is.
The other day I wrote the following reply on FreeRepublic which was enriched by the contribution of Soul of the South who pointed out that George HW Bush was also derelict in the matter of immigration.
Here is that reply of a few days ago:
I remember my very first vanity on FreeRepublic criticizing George W. Bush for his failure to close the border long before the issue had become settled conservative politics of opposition to open borders and amnesty. I was berated for that vanity because the majority conservative opinion at a time when we hoped to win the Iraq war insisted on supporting George Bush in all things.
I criticized George Bush for permitting a condition to arise in which we would never win another national election. Now Ari Fleischer pops up to support his old boss for whom he was a mouthpiece by saying that we are offending the very same electorate that George Bush condoned or actually created. The Bush family predilection for unrestrained Hispanic immigration is now fully obvious to all of us. George Bush had the power as president of the United States quietly and effectively to enforce the immigration laws which were not limited to merely shutting down the border but to prosecuting offending employers who unfairly competed against their competition by hiring cheap illegal immigrants. He could have done this with minimal blowback from in the existing Hispanic community who could vote in America.
Bush would not.
Today, we are in this mess largely because George Bush wanted it this way. This pious advice from a Rino like Ari Fleischer makes any red-blooded conservative fiercely determined to stop any member of the Bush family from getting anywhere near the Oval Office.
If that's so, they maybe you should know how to spell his name.
“You're Fired”
or at least you should be, smug is not a virtue.
Your “virtual” world question says more about what you are, and your “exposes” your inadequacies
I'll bet until now, most people never heard of a "sanctuary city" for illegals.
Not to worry, it will all be turned around blaming the gun.
