What a stupid and defeatist argument which proves beyond question that Rubio is a sell-out. If 0bama is going to act like a dictator via EO, it makes no practical difference what congress does. In fact, if congress does vote for some type of immigration reform, we all know that this will be used to provide cover for any action that the dictator takes. Congress will become a willing accomplice to the dictator. We know that throughout history, most dictators have used vestigial assemblies and legislatures as a means to deceive the public into believing that their voice is being heard.
Rubio reminds me of all the libs who insist that your kids need to be saturated with condoms because they’re going to be doing it anyway.
It involves giving up your basic defenses (that is, all but the king in the row that contains your rooks, knights, bishops and queen), then begging the enemy to be merciful to the pawns that are left.
It would be better for Rubio to devote his energies to gaining the support of the Democrat Socialist Party than to waste time trying to convince the GOP conservative base that he has seen the light -- that few Republicans can win a statewide or national election without the support of the conservative base or that the days of supporting RINOs -- especially those with power and tenure -- are over (regardless of what Rove has assured him).
