Don’t get you hopes up. “Comprehensive” is code for legalization of imigrants who are already here. Nothing new here folks, move along.

McCain hasn’t changed his position, for a year he’s been saying secure the border, when that’s done we have to pass comprehensive immigration reform. When he’s hispandering he doesn’t mention securing the border, when he’s talking to the rest of us he forgets to mention comprehensive immigration reform. This is nothing new, for him, he says what’s to his advantage at the moment.

McCain is answering to his “masters of the universe”. The same people that made it possible to put a dipstick like him as the GOP candidate.

Global losers, people that need to be kicked to Siberia forever.

No, MacCain's first duty is to get himself elected. Truth, honor, integrity, your future, my future, our children's and grandchildren's futures be damned.

So do you think it's any different with the other 2 ?

Not a flip-flop, just another lie.

As Democrats have both houses of Congress, they will pass the immigration/amnesty bills. The question is, if elected president, will McPain veto it or sign it? We hope for the former rather than latter.

You have to be as naive and/or ignorant as Sean Hannity to believe anything McCain says.

I don’t look at his ‘flip flop’ as a ‘flip flop’.
I never believe his lies about the border illegals
or any of this campaign trail rhetoric....they’re all
lies (except for what’s said in these secret meetings.)

I am beginning to wonder if the GOP thinks it, long term can “win” the latino vote over social issues/religion. I am not saying that is an accurate assumption, but I wouldn’t put it past the powers that be to think they can eventually win the majority of the latino vote and thus solidify power.

Of course, we already know the dems think that.

What would be interesting is the question of whether the Dems would go along. Obviously, it would have to start in the Congress. I think the conventional wisdom is that the Dems would jump at the chance of extending the right to vote to 12 million Mexican immigrants. But then, I am not so sure. Certainly McCain would be a lame duck on day one. He would not care whether the voters hate his guts in 2012. If the Dems went along for the ride, though, they could be looking at a midterm bloodbath.

"I would like to see what each candidate has in mind for an immigration bill...............both of them."

This won't even come up in a debate or for discussion between the candidates because it is a non-issue since both of them agree that there will be wide open borders and an amnesty of illegals and all their relatives who want to join them, with millions of new Democrat voters.

McCain has never changed his mind about amnesty. The only “change” has been one of sequencing, i.e., the border first then amnesty.

Hannity has a good shtick. Goad enough conservatives to his side by mildly rebuking leftist behavior of RINOS, but tow the party line at the end of the day, hoping to drag along all the lemmings who "identify" with him. Feign conservatism when it is harmless to do so, and then abandon all principles when it is worth a damn.

Like a lot of Republicans, he is the kind who is great for conservatives when the Democrats are in power, and lousy otherwise.

Oooooooooo! Obama!!!!!! Ooooooooo...booga booga!!!!! Oooooooo! Obama !!!!.

I know Obama is bad news. I also know there are 100, 1000, 1million more slick talkin', power hungry, life stealing Democrats out there ready, willing and able to replace him.

My concern is that when you smell shit in your house, you should try to find the source and get rid of it before going next door the neighbor's house, and so on.....
