HE 'BIG CON' BEGINS
To win in the 2010 Tea Party Wave, Rubio ran as the anti-amnesty candidate despite an aggressive pro-amnesty record. Politico reports:
"Arturo Vargas, the executive director for the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials, said Rubio, the son of Cuban exiles born in Miami, blocked 'scorched-earth' legislation that sought to clamp down on illegal immigration. 'He, as speaker, kept many of those from coming up to a vote,' Vargas said. 'We were very proud of his work as speaker of the House.'
"In 2006, Rubio even voted for a bill that would have allowed the children of illegal immigrants to pay the same tuition rates at Florida colleges as residents. Vargas now says Rubio, the candidate, takes a more pointed, less nuanced tone as he stresses border enforcement and his opposition to amnesty. 'He's become your typical candidate in terms of playing to his primary election base...'"
Rubio used amnesty opposition to get elected before coming to Washington to push the biggest mass immigration / amnesty bill anyone had ever seen. He declared of Gov. Crist's position that "an earned path to citizenship is basically code for amnesty," and that illegals seeking citizenship should "return to their homeland," and that "if you grant amnesty as the governor proposes that we do, in any form, whether it's the back of the line or so forth, you will destroy any chance we will ever have of having a legal immigration system that works here in America."

Read it.
Doesn’t matter if you’re a Trumper or a Cruzer, but this cat had better be stopped....and fast.
I’m with Shlafly on this.
Then for some strange reason Rush keeps telling us Rubio is a hardline conservative.
Rush appears to be drinking the GOP Kool-aid
Marco Rubio is in no way prepared to be the president of the United States of America.
Me too. I completely trust her and agree with her on Rubio.
Rubio's Magnificent Office Seeker career kind of ended the day Chuck Schumer exposed him for what he truly believes. The smirk on Schumer's face tells all you need to know. And even Rush Limbaugh cannot revive Bubble Boy's conservative credentials. Levin and Rush soft-peddled the immigration issue. Sure, they talked about it, but they were ultimately for the status quo. They probably hoped that some compromise would be reached so their Silicon Valley (Cheap Labor Express) advertisers would be pleased. It was Trump who brought the illegal immigrant issue to the forefront. And he is absolutely correct on this issue. "Build a Wall" is the cornerstone of his strength. |
I was wobbling between Trump and Rubio for my #2 behind Cruz, Phyllis made her case, Trump is now solidly #2.
Trump maybe a wildcard and I don’t know if he’s for real, Rubio I’m now convinced is lying about his immigration stance.
I read the Rubio betrayal article, and did some digging on my own. It looks that she nailed it. If you have any doubts click on her proof sources in the piece, and follow them through. It looks like Schlafly may have saved us from a fatal political mistake.
One we can not afford to make this time.
It Looks like it’s either Trump or Cruz; or if you will Cruz or Trump.
No matter which man prevails we must VOTE FOR whomever that is; painful though it may be, or we,and the Country are dead.
I met Phyllis Schlafly once - amazing woman. She has courage, common sense, and an incredible ability to cut through the Bull Shiez.
Rubio is an ILLEGAL INVADER supporter and advocate, and that makes him a traitor to the United States of America. He ignores those who have invaded in our nation, broken our laws, and stolen taxpayer money. He has no business running for anything except chairman of Raza.
