RE :”Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush said in a TV interview Monday that he no longer supports a path to citizenship in an immigration reform bill, a reversal that puts him to the right of the current bipartisan immigration proposal forming in the Senate.
“If we want to create an immigration policy that's going to work, we can't continue to make illegal immigration an easier path than legal immigration,” Bush said on NBC’s “Today” show. “I think it's important that there's a natural friction between our immigrant heritage and the rule of law. This is the right place, I think, to be in that sense.”

This is very good. He is making sense here:

1) Why the hell would Republicans give illegal aliens (esp ones in demographics that overwhelmingly support liberal redistribution policies) the vote ? Isnt this suicide?

2) Democrats wont support a immigration bill that does not have path to citizenship, which is a good reason to support one (that they wont accept).

3) The just be against everything (in the House) strategy is not working, in case you havent noticed Bohner is passing Democrats Senate bills using Dem votes, partly because there are no alternative Republican House bills on them that he can get passed (unite) with just GOP votes. So Obama is winning. He got the Senate modified VAWA. His agenda is slowly getting passed.

Very interesting perspective

Sense? Only to the low infoamation, ignorant voter.

Our legal immigration policies are already suicide for the Reps. We bring in 1.2 million legal immigrants a year, two thirds of whom will vote Dem.

When you legalize the status of the 11 to 20 million lawbreakers, you enable them to bring in tens of millions of their relatives thru chain migration, i.e., family reunification.

And does anyone really think that we can create a second class of permanent legal residents who have no opportunity to become citizens like other green card holders? The issue will be taken to the courts and the lawbreakers will be given the right to apply for citizenship. If the courts don't rule in their favor, the Dems in Congress and the WH will eventually change it.

) Democrats wont support a immigration bill that does not have path to citizenship, which is a good reason to support one (that they wont accept.

Please don't throw me into that briar patch. The Dems know that once the 11 to 20 million are legalized, the rest will be easy. They will remain the champions of immigrants and minorities. They will fight for the civil rights of the oppressed. By 2019 half of the children 18 and under will be minorities as classified by the USG and by 2042 half of the country will be. Demography is destiny.

And Reps who support anmnesty, i.e., giving the lawbreakers the right to stay and work here, are helping Obama pass his agenda. It is reminiscent of don't ask, don't tell, which was just an interim measure to allow gays to openly serve in the military and Obamacare, which will lead to single payer health care.

This is very good. He is making sense here:

I don't trust him as far as I could throw him. It's clear he is running rightwards on this issue to position for the 2016 primaries. If he were to win the White House, he would run right back leftwards again on this issue. He's held the position of a path to citizenship for way too long to believe otherwise.

“If we want to create an immigration policy that's going to work, we can't continue to make illegal immigration an easier path than legal immigration,” Bush said on NBC’s “Today” show.

It only took Bush 40 years to figure out the obvious? What's next? He's going to 'get' that only law biding people will give up their guns if gun control is passed? Or that if welfare pays MORE than work that more people will go on welfare?

Sorry, Bush is 'sweet' but he's waaaaaay too stupid to be up against the next dem thug - and a MSM that will be backing that dem thug...
