After Boston, Congressman Urges Caution on Immigration Reform

Representative Steve King of Iowa, a prominent House conservative, says Congress should be cautious about rushing immigration reform, especially after Monday’s bombing in Boston, where three people were killed.

“Some of the speculation that has come out is that yes, it was a foreign national and, speculating here, that it was potentially a person on a student visa,” King says. “If that’s the case, then we need to take a look at the big picture.”

On immigration, King says national security should be the focus now, and any talk about a path to legalization should be put on hold.

“We need to be ever vigilant,” he says....

Hear, hear!

D’oh!

(ADT commercial) Time to think about a security system is not after something bad happened.

[dirtboy]

What’s the blood of a few Americans when there are new Dem voters and more cheap workers to be had?

[MeganC]

Good for Rep. King!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mountainlion]

Why caution for an illegal immigrant bill but full speed on guns?

[Sir Napsalot]

Yet, Rep King is very happy to disarm Americans.

[Gaffer]

Of course! It is simply common human sense. But we have a majority of our government that is intent to pursue a path of pandering and voter enrichment. This doesn’t include any plans for keeping some America-hating foreigner out of this country as long as there is a chance Obama can convince them to vote Democrat.

Thank you, Steve King!

[Waryone]

I have not read anything about that. If you have a link to Steve King of Iowa, not Peter King of NY, taking guns away, I would appreciate it.

[Free Vulcan]

That’s Peter King, R-NY, not Steve King, R-IA. Steve is a conservative’s conservative.

On immigration, King says national security should be the focus now, and any talk about a path to legalization should be put on hold.

Sorry, way too late.

[Sir Napsalot]

Sorry, I made a mistake. It was Rep King of New York I was thinking, but wrongly attributed to Rep Steve King of Iowa. My sincere apologies, to Rep Steve King.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Isn’t that the New York model you’re thinking of, or am I confused?

[Sir Napsalot]

I am eating humble pie right now.

My sincere apology to Rep. Steve King of Iowa.

[Free Vulcan]

No problemo, it’s easy to do. Alot of the times the media doesn’t even let you know which King it is, which I think it is deliberate.

[Sir Napsalot]

No, I don't have any excuse.

The article Prominently stated it was the Conservative Congressman Steve King of Iowa.

I read it, but honestly was thinking of Peter King.

[Forty-Niner]

Oh goody, we get to do it too! (Advance our concerns on the back of a tragedy)

Throw all illegals out now! NO “Path” (read reward for breaking our laws) to citizenship.

If it saves only one life.....

[onyx]

He’s right!!

[SeminoleCounty]

Steve King for President!

Though the PhonyCon Liberals would squeal like a gay man denied bathhouse admittance because King backed Todd Akin.... he would make a fine President

And it is absolutely Treasonous for Marco Rubio and MS-8 to keep pushing Illegal Alien Amnesty after this apparent foreign terrorist attack
