Yeah, right! Food Stamp use, Welfare (TANF), unemployment checks......we will be TRILLIONS more in debt if they push amnesty through.

We’re going to have to name this bill after Rubio. Rubiocare or something.

rubenesty?

I’m really wondering when Mark Levin is going to let go of his love for Marco and stop supporting him as a political candidate. Really, Levin doesn’t support this amnesty bill, but he still talks like he’ll endorse Rubio in future elections to the end. He says Rubio is conservative on everything else. Sorry to say Mark, his gang of 8 actions negate all the good he’s done, just like a murderer doesn’t escape prison, just because he did a lot of good before killing.

Mark says lotsa good things. Then he caves on Romney, now Rubio.

It is what it is.

[Sir Napsalot]

What you said.

This is really disheartening, isn't it?

[Norm Lenhart]

Yes but I accept that most so called conservatives are not who or what they say they are. And I accept that thanks to them, the Rinos and dems have free rein.

If that was not the case, they would not say one thing and do another. Principles DO matter. And after it all comes apart, hopefully people of principle can salvage what remains from the people that threw it all away.

That’s one of the bigger lies he’s told...if immigration helped the economy, why then, with the gates wide open for the last 20 years aren’t we doing great!!!!???

Marco has let his brain be Chucked.

He has lost all capability of logical thought processes.

If this was the 1950s I would probably agree with Rubio. It use to be sane nations sought after relatively young and hard working immigrants to come here to fill skill shortages. But these days I imagine an immigrant has just as much chance of coming here for the golden social welfare benefits as much as coming here to work hard. I just don't buy the argument, and certainly not from the “throw open our borders” crowd.

[Sam Gamgee]

Funny that with 8% unemployment that this crowd still has the gaul to claim we have jobs only immigrants will do.

McConell put Rubio in the Gang of 8. Rubio is just fronting the old Chamber of Commerce amnesty lobby. Nothing new here, just a new spokesman. Big money in amnesty and the beltway GOP has no problem pimping us out to get it.
