No no no no no

NO “citizenship”

INCLUDING “Birthright citizenship” No more fraud “resorts” no more running across the border to have a kid, sneaking here to have a kid, having a kid while illegally here. Stop rewarding dishonesty and fraud. NO.

Re: “If they were born here, they are U.S. citizens. Don’t like it? Change the law.”

Hard to believe the Founding Fathers envisioned a world where hundreds of thousands of pregnant women would visit the USA each year for the expressed purpose of creating an infant American citizen who has the legal authority to confer additional citizenship on the rest of his family.

Whatever happened to the “Living Constitution?”

Oh, I forgot.

It’s only “alive” when it creates new rights for Socialists.

Cantor was a rino from day one.

The truth is, you cannot ignore the President of the United States hiding his own status and even going as far as posting a fake document on the White House website and not ignore everybody else questionable.

I'm not saying Obama is illegal but he has yet to prove his own status. He may be a legal natural born citizen OR he may have been born in Kenya. We've yet to see his own papers.

If we cannot ask an illegal to leave the White House and Presidency, how can we ask an illegal to leave San Diego or Nogales, Arizona?

Not only can they stay but they are now allowed to be our next President. The precedence has been set. Maybe the republican conservatives do not wish to participate in the new precedence, but that doesn't mean it's not set.

Impeach Obama now or you sleep in the bed you make.

it is clear by his parents status, one being a brit citizen, that obama was in the very least a dual citizen, not eligible for the presidency. further the scholarship he won for college was only given to foreigners, not US citizens.

Your copy of the Constitution must not be the same as mine. Especially the 14th, in part, that states “....and subject to the jurisdiction thereof....”.

Don’t tell me yours is always missing that pesky clause in the 2nd about ‘shall not be infringed’ as well?!

As with much these days, just another indication that we are a Banana Republic with selective enforcement by the ruling class.

In a related story, Senator Cantor also proposed that the children of thieves should be allowed to keep any and all property stolen by their parents.

There is no longer any need to refer to “GOP” and “sellout” in the same sentence. The words are fully intechangeable and will continue to be so. Much of this is because of inept, uninformed Republican primary voters, many of whom accept the Democrat premise on most issues anyway. I would imagine these people will “Rally for Jebbie in 2016.”

I am going on record if Jeb Bush is the 2016 nominee, to paraphrase unconvinced Shark Tank investors,

“I’m Out.”

And I can’t honestly lump all the gop into one category. I specifically refer to the GOP leadership that blacklisted and purged the conservatives out of committees and power.

“The GOP wants to lose the next election so bad...”

They seem to be lining up like lemmings for exactly that.

And then... the next one, and the next one, and ...

... before too long, they won’t be around at all any more!

“The deal Reagan made was that the illegals in the country at the time would be granted amnesty and citizenship in exchange for sealing the border. Reagan kept his part of the deal. The Democrats did not keep their part of the deal which was to close the border.”

Except it wasn’t just the Democrats. The Bushes helped them subvert the law. The Treason Lobby is flourishing in the GOP just like it is among the Democrats.

And in the meantime the country is taken further and further left by the Democrats. Knowing all of this, what are conservatives going to do about it? Will we continue to sit back in our chairs complaining on the internet about the state of our the party and of our country, or will we finally get out and get involved in the Republican party in a mass, concentrated effort to take control from the GOPe? Primaries for the next election are about a year away. The time is now to get involved.

It is that fact and the fact that even some Democrats will receive hell from their constituents if they vote for amnesty which is the key to once again defeating the open borders crowd. We alos need to work in electing more Tea Party Republicans in 2014 so we can boot out the GOPe leaders in the House and Senate and have our own people appointed to those commitees.

if an illegal has a child in the USA, the child IS, by our laws, an American Citizen.

Only if you accept the bastardized interpretation of the 14th.

A lot of Freepers were pointing that out from the beginning, and they included Ryan in that pool.

Well that illegal in the White House is in command of the most powerful fighting force in the world, that illegal has no such advantage.

What if is actually their plan? Wouldn’t be a loss would it?

No, as bad as some Republicans are, the Democrats are still worse. Most Republicans will vote against amnesty while only a handful of Democrats will.

The people cannot pick and choose which parts of our constitution should be uphold and which parts do not matter. When that happens things like the Second Amendment could fly out the window depending on public opinion and the opinion of the man who holds the power in the White House.
