LUIS GUTIERREZ CLAIMS HE'S 'NOT FOR AMNESTY'
Breitbart ^ | 15 Jun 2014 | TONY LEE

Posted on 06/16/2014 5:37:36 AM PDT by moonshinner_09

On Sunday, Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) claimed that he is "not for amnesty" and has never spoken to House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) about immigration issues. Discussing Cantor's shocking upset on ABC's This Week, Gutierrez, despite traveling with Cantor to New York last year on a pro-amnesty tour, said that he has "never had a conversation with Eric Cantor about immigration." Gutierrez said that any Republican who is framed as supporting "amnesty" will lose and said even he was against amnesty even though he has been the most vocal and prominent amnesty supporter. "I am not for amnesty," he said. "I am for replacing the illegal immigration system with a legal immigration system." Gutierrez not only believes all of the country's illegal immigrants should be granted citizenship, but he has also suggested that "every institution" should try to work around the country's immigration laws. The outspoken Representative has said that DREAMers should be allowed to enlist in the military, President Barack Obama should unilaterally ease deportations and expand the temporary amnesty program to include parents of DREAMers, and has praised the Senate's comprehensive amnesty bill and the House GOP leadership's "immigration principles." In fact, Gutierrez even pointed out that the House GOP's "immigration principles," which declared that one of the great "founding principles" of the nation was that illegal immigrant children should be given citizenship so they are not punished for the mistakes of their parents, leaves a path for all of the nation's illegal immigrants to eventually get citizenship. As Breitbart News reported, Cantor also tried to claim that he was an anti-amnesty warrior in the weeks leading up to the campaign, but voters in his district did not buy it.

“It is weird that the communists are dumping the illegals primarily in RED STATES. Must have something to do with taking the power out of the hands of American voters.”

They are now being flown from Texas to Mass. Its part of the plan. That way the government can claim they no longer know where any of the illegals went. That way they can’t be returned to their native country. Face it, democrats are ten steps ahead on this one. So the democrats want us to believe we can’t scoop up illegal aliens and deport them but we can scoop up illegal aliens and transport them all over this nation. Riiiiight.

Of course, he isn’t for amnesty. Neither is McCain, Graham, Cornyn, Cantor, Ryan, Boehner, Rubio, Paul, et al., wink wink nudge nudge.

Same ole canard: It really isn’t amnesty. But, no matter how much lipstick you put on it, not matter what you call it [such as regularization], it is still amnesty.

We have been going in circles over the rhetoric and definitions since 2001. Who are we going to believe? Them or our lying eyes and ears?

Ohhhh, what’s going on at our southern border now? An invasion — no matter what the politicians want to call it. It is an invasion.
