I bet Boehner didn't like a freshman conservative lecturing him. And Paul Ryan is probably irate that Cotton is upstaging him.
I would love to see Cotton take on Pryor for the Senate seat next year.
Thank goodness there are a few House members who are shouting "NO conference bill." If it dies in the House without a conference bill with amnesty for Boehner to rush to the floor, Boehner will be crying till the end of the year.
"King predicts that Cotton could be one of the reasons that a path to legalization dies in the House." From your lips to God's ears, Steve.
I stand with Tom Cotton!
“I stand with Tom Cotton!”
Absolutely. Now if we could just get a majority of Republicans to do the same.
As an Arkansan, I will vote for Tom Cotton.
Paul Ryan is a lying two-faced traitor to the Republican Party.If he is the pick of the RINO’s we lose again.
The more support guys like Cotton get the better chance that other pubbies will buy a clue.
Arkansas boy does good.
“Paul Ryan is a lying two-faced traitor to the Republican Party.If he is the pick of the RINO’s we lose again.”
No question. He is an even worse campaigner than Romney was. And I remember when he was asked about immigration issues when he was picked by Romney to be his running mate that Ryan tried to nuance and deflect so as to give a non-answer every time. I guess he had to bite his tongue at the time and not confess he was for amnesty.
“The more support guys like Cotton get the better chance that other pubbies will buy a clue.”
I agree. I plan to give to his next campaign, be it the House or Senate.
I wish I could cast a vote for him.
Cotton is sounding better and better.
He might be worth challenging Pryor.
What is the voting record difference between Pryor and Blanche?
Until now Blance was the only one for amnesty.
Find it strange when the excuse is being given that while the government knows whats going on in 300 million citizens lives but because the illegals are not citizens and in “the shadows” according to Florida’s Senator Rubio the US doesn’t know who they are or where they’re comming from so we must make them citizens..
THE QUESTION IS SENATORS HOW COULD YOU PASS A 1200 PAGE BILL YOU HAVEN’T READ... THAT HAS A FINE OF $5000 FOR ANY EMPLOYER WHO HIRES A CITIZEN OVER AN ILLEGAL ...WHY ARE YOU SO SET ON IMPORTING LOW WAGE LABORERS MAINLY FROM ONE COUNTRY WHICH TAKE UP JOBS OUR YOUTH AND ESPECIALLY BLACKS COULD BE PERFORMING ?
KNOWING THIS HOW CAN YOU HOUSE MEMBERS PASS ANY KIND OF LEGISLATION THAT MAY HAVE THAT AND AN UNSECURED BORDER COMMING OUT OF “CONFERENCE”....???HOW ABOUT REPRESENTING THE INTERESTS OF YOUR CONSTITUENTS AND THE COUNTRY NOT YOUR POLITICAL PARTY ?
FR’s ; are urged to visit their respective Congressional Representatives and let them know their feelings ... WHEN IT COMES TO AMNESTY
THIS IS THE MEXICAN PART NO ONE DARES MENTION
If you agree with the above and the following please don’t let it lay here in FR-land. Pass it on to to your favorite talk show host and to your US legislators. PUSH THE HASTERT RULE.
ONE NATIONALITY AMNESTY SKEWS QUOTAS. HURTS OTHERS FROM SOUTH AMERICA, AND SKILLED LABOR QUOTAS FROM OTHER NATIONS ...WORSE YET OFFERING AMNESTY FOR NATIONALS FROM A COUNTRY THAT HAS CLAIMS ON OUR NATIONAL TERRITORY THAT COULD AND HAS TURNED INTO PROBLEMS FOR BORDER STATES CLAIMED BY MEXICO .
In that May 3rd speech Obama gave before the Mexican Anthropological Museum in which he blamed America for the violence in Mexico I believe he went even futhur. There’s a inference but never referenced by name to the Gasden purchase and border settlements US made with Mexico where Obama hinted he seems to side with the Mexican claims. Would those in attendence share that view is a question that should be asked, because I believe they would,.he does.
SOLVING THE ‘LATINO” PROBLEM A MYTH HISPANIC IS NOT A RACE BUT A POLITICAL LINGUISTIC CONTRIVANCE ...don’t fall into the hyphenated Americans trap created by the hyphenated political party ...The DEMO-COMS
The Mexicans have been getting most favorable treatment above the rest of our neighbors both north and south. They’re permitted to cross our borders and enter illegally and are allowed access to rights of citizenship (with the exception of voting which if the democrat party regains control over the House will happen) other nationals entering this country don’t get.. Worse yet the Obama government has been working hand in glove with Mexican movements such as LaRaza supporting the Mexican claims which are also supporting “Amnesty”.
Also by allowing Mexicans to do this any quota ration for immigration from other south and central American countrys are taken up by Mexicans while that country is laying claim to a large chunk of our sovereign territory is a recipe for later serious problems which are happening now.
ARE MEXICAN ILLEGALS SQUATTERS PERPETUATING THE MEXICAN CLAIMS ?
We are already seeing the result of this in certain areas claimed by the Mexicans. Their national flag (standard) gets displayed over ours. Where there is a controlling number of Mexican nationals (illegals). It’s displayed over certain institutions particularly schools accompanied by riots and disturbances. Blacks are threatend by Mexicans in certain sections of citys in those areas. We’re courting trouble by not placing a value on our sovereignty and our citizenship.
MOST COINS OF THE REALM HAVE TWO FACES WHAT ABOUT HOW ARE AMERICAN CITIZENS LIVING IN MEXICO BEING TREATED ?
Worse yet if a US citizen goes into Mexico never mind illegaly but legally. They’ll get 2nd class treatment. Land ownership in title is prohibited period. And there are a slew of regulations they must comply with. Which doesn’t apply to a citizen of Mexico
THE SOLUTION ASSERT OUR SOVEREIGNTY AND TALK RECIPROCITY .
By not insisting on reciprocity particularly on those who have entered this country illegally we’re offering no incentive for assimilation and we’re not easing the burden for our fellow citizens who for what ever reason decided to live in Mexico.
ENOUGH OF THE ONE WORLD SOCIALISM ...BRING BACK SOVEREIGNTY AND SANITY TO OUR COUNTRY .....BRING BACK BELIEF IN GOD ...THIS GOVERNMENT OUT OUR FACE..... OUR RELIGIONS..... AND OUR BEDROOMS..
I guess I need to keep up more... :-)
Blanche Lincoln was defeated back in 2010. Republican John Boozman is the junior Senator now.
IF they want to pass immigration piecemeal, then let the Senate pass one piece of enforcement at a time and the House pass EXACTLY the same one. That way there is no conference and the bill goes to the president.
Cantor= see above. Both of these fellows are fishing for Conservative support with Liberal bait. Ain't working.
There is nothing to be gained by cooperating with democrats in this Congress. Let the bastards drown and concentrate on keeping an improved majority in '14, and winning the Senate. There is no "Immigration Emergency." There is an "Unwillingness to Demand Law Enforcement Emergency."
King and Cotton have a tough job ... Dump Boehner.
Tom Cotton is closer to the geographic center of the house GOP than Ryan. He is surrounded by districts the GOP gained.
Priebus and Paul Ryan are not guys who would pass the beer test.
Steve King passes the beer test.
Boehner will be crying and drinking a fifth a day until the end of the year.
Dump Goodlatte and Cantor too.
