"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldnt make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan |

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms.

Hey, Marco! I really don't give a flip what Jebbie Bush thinks about on anything.

RE
I thought about that issue a lot and [went] back and forth on it before I signed on to my principles and I just concluded that its not good for the country in the long term to have millions and millions of people who are forever prohibited from becoming citizens, Rubio told reporters on his way to a Senate vote. That hasnt worked out well for Europe. Great idea Rub, we better to make sure that America has a permanent government dependent Democrat voting class that always goes for raising taxes on those who make it better than them, to pay for stuff for themselves and their families. Oh, and now they LOVE the idea of gay marriage and free abortions
What could go wrong with that???.
If the GOP is down to Rub and Bush in 2016 then expect the same success we got (and expected for me) from Romney and Newt in 2012 race.

“An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely...”
This is what is to be aware of, but not feared.

"...its not good for the country in the long term to have millions and millions of people who are forever prohibited from becoming citizens, Rubio told reporters... So what's the solution, Senator Rubio? Just declare all these lawbreakers legal? You want us to throw our laws out and acquiesce to the demands of foreigners who don't love this country, and who mostly have no desire to assimilate into this culture?
Sure. Why not. Let's just do like Europe, and subordinate our native culture to that of our third world 'betters', losing everything that makes this country what it is, in the bargain. Do you honestly consider that "good for the country", Senator?

“. . . I just concluded that its not good for the country in the long term to have millions and millions of people who are forever prohibited from becoming citizens,
What an ignorant statement!
Those millions, Rubio, are criminals who have no right to even be in the United States, let alone be citizens.
What you are seeing now is the genesis of the coming Republican electoral massacre of 2014. What Republican conservative voter will have any interest in supporting elitists like Rubio, Graham, and their ilk who throw aside any respect for the law to pander to groups like the illegal alien bloc.
For every one hispanic vote they gain, they will lose four of the once reliable and principled conservative, law-respecting base. You can only stab your own troops in the back so many times.
Rubio’s time has come, and has now gone. The voters have turned away from the stupid debate between Rubio and the latest Bush over who can pander the most while lying the best. The Republican consultants and “strategists” have already set up the massive defeat that is coming. Of course, when it’s over they’ll still say it’s because the party didn’t pander enough to hispanics.

While I find POTUS campaign politics annoying this early out it was Impy who suggested in a ping to me my ultimate dream ticket for 2016, and I really liked it.
Scott Walker-Ted Cruz (Cruz was born in Canada.)
Now that would be one hell of a fighting team.
That is why it will not happen, it will probably be Bush-Rubio or Rubio Christie.

Yes, and Marco would know about that because birds of a feather flock together and both he and JEB have been amnesty lovers for years.

From the beginning of Rubio’s so-called rise in the Republican party, I have not seen anything that would make me want to vote for him. I still don’t. He just doesn’t impress me. After I hear him speak, I still wonder where he stands.
To: oldbill
Yep. What you said. Don’t they have well paid consultants that are supposed to tell them this stuff?

I’d vote for another Bush if he were conservative. Jeb Bush is NO conservative, nor his brother, not his dad. Maybe someday one will be born in the family.
