Democrats have scoffed at the proposal, saying they won’t accept citizenship for only a small number of the 11 million illegal immigrants.

That response is not helping to win support from conservatives who don’t want to take a politically risky vote on a bill that won’t become law.

“I don’t know why we would bring a bill like that up at this time when [Senate Majority Leader] Harry Reid has said it’s dead on arrival over in the Senate,” Rep. Matt Salmon (R-Ariz.) said. “They’re kind of taking the position, my way or the highway, so it would just be symbolic.”

Indeed, WHY try to pass things that are, according to senate Dems and RINOs, unacceptable? The only answers that make sense are:

1)Salmon's answer, they REALLY want to make a "symbolic statement," i. e. material for campaign commercials.

2)They don't care. They are just going with the flow.

3)They already said they are going to pass a bill, and it would be too embarrassing to change course.

4)They are open borders sellouts who want to use a House bill as a stepping stone to conference->Obama's desk.

These idiots think we’re stupid.

Legalize the kids and we’re stuck with extended families.
