This is just another “mess” for The Won to inherit.
Hell yes - and sink Rubio too. He could not have picked a worse person to align with than John McCain.
Even if they were hired, Zero and Holder wouldn't allow them to so much as glance sideways at the horde pouring over the border.
At this point, I don't give a damn what promises on enforcement come out of Washington. They haven't enforced the laws on the books up to this point, and Congress has looked the other way. They fully intend to ignore any new promises to stop illegal immigration, so F*** 'em!
NO BILL!
Could this be Rubios plan all along.
Not a chance. He's been defending this crap sandwich from the very beginning, as if it were his own child. He's been side stepping and fancy dancing in every interview, and talking faster than a New York city con artist.
He's sweating bullets now, because he's been exposed as a no good, worthless, lying, GOP-e huckster who's willing to do the dirty work to kill America and the Constitution once and for all.
As far as I'm concerned, the man is now permanently radioactive. He'll never get anything but scorn from me, for as long as he remains in politics.
If Rubio was a sixteen year old who cheated on an exam, while knowing it went against everything his parents had taught him, I might be willing to give him another chance.
This is a US Senator we're talking about here, who has broken faith with those who broke their butts to get him where he is. He lied to everyone who trusted him. He violated his stated principles in spades.
I'm sorry, but you only get one chance to make a bad impression. Rubio's done it, and there's no going back. The man cannot be trusted ever again.
You talk as though Rubio is withdrawing his support for this bill because it's been poisoned. He hasn't sabotaged anything. He's been out there day and night, stumping for this crap sandwich all across the country, and in front of every microphone he could find.
The first amendments that come along that make this thing even slightly palatable, and he votes against them with the Democrats. By your logic, the Dems voted against the amendments for the same reason.
Sorry, but that fails.
Rush made a big mistake putting him on his show....I think he likes Rubio....but he is just another rino...
Border security, my Aunt Tilly.....why do we taxpayers have to worry about border security AND foot the bills for it?
When does Mexico step up to the plate? After all, they are the ones who will be pocketing zillions in US tax dollars (foreign aid and other giveaways power-crazed Ohaha can dream up).
Vote-crazed Dems are gonna turn on the tax tap full force. The "pressure groups" Mexico threw over the border are lying in wait----conniving to exchange hyphenate votes for tax dollars.
Taxpayers demand oil-rich Mexico leave the cantinas and the senoritas, and police their own borders.
I am so glad that Rubio outed himself. That’ll be one less pseudo-conservative to siphon votes from conservatives in 2016.
Rubio is such a DISAPPOINTMENT!!! Or was he ALWAYS a WOLF in Sheep’s clothing??
Well, there was always Charlie Crist, right?
I think we will hire the extra 20,000 agents, we just won’t let them deport anyone they happen to catch.
Libertarianism in the economic sphere is the free market which is utterly sustainable as long as people want to be free or at least recognize what’s in their best interests and don’t allow government to muscle in on their affairs. Good examples are the people of Chile or Estonia or America before the 1930’s. The free market doesn’t require political, religious or personal agreement, only voluntary cooperation based on self interest. It’s a kind of heaven on earth.
Good one Liz - and thanks for the ping.
IF Rubio and McCain were the ONLY Republicans who voted for this horror - the MSM would forever tie it to Republicans. The MSM will do that because the American people are SICK of illegals ... and the MSM knows it. Rubio needs to walk away for real - no one wants a bunch of illegals other than rich liberals who want to play them against American workers. McCain's a lost cause - might as well be a Democrat.
The first amendments that come along that make this thing even slightly palatable, and he votes against them with the Democrats. By your logic, the Dems voted against the amendments for the same reason.
May be he doesn’t want it palatable. I’d much rather this
thing die by any means than have a Simpson Mazzoli clone
and so far Rubio has done a good job of running the weak
moderates off. The only thing the Demtards want is amnesty
and no matter how palatable it is to you, if amnesty is in
it that’s all you’ll get. I say no bill at all until Obama
is out, even if it takes an unwitting dumba$$ to do it.
The question is, do you want an immigration bill passed
with these tards in power?
No, the question is, why does Marco Rubio want this AMNESTY bill passed?
You really ought to quit sticking up for the guy. He had a chance to vote for two amendments which would have brought this thing more in line with the Constitution, our immigration laws, and the will of the people, but he chose to vote with the Democrats instead.
If you can't see that you're being betrayed by this lying turncoat, then heaven help you.
“He had a chance to vote for two amendments which would have brought this thing more in line with the Constitution,”
It still had amnesty. He is killing the bill by discouraging
republicans, which they need to pass it and he has pushed it
up front where more people can see it.
I agree with you on the premiss. He is a turn coat. But
right now he’s doing more damage to the dems than us.
My stand is, secure the boarder first, make all illegals
sign the book, weed out and deport the undesirables and
put the rest on the standard road to citizenship.
No amnesty at all.
Honestly I wish they would all just go back.
“Nothing” is better than anything with
amnesty in it. I’d much rather he stay republican than let him
be run out and switch to dem.
Even Reagen had his quirks with gun control and taxes but
he was still a good conservative.
