Business Groups Preparing to Fight Conservatives over Immigration (Tax them, Tax them all)
Brietbart ^ | 10/18/2013 | Tony Lee

Posted on 10/18/2013 1:15:24 PM PDT by amnestynone

Business groups that want Republicans to compromise more with Democrats and Washington's permanent political class on comprehensive immigration reform may declare war on Tea Party candidates by putting money behind moderate and centrist candidates in Republican primaries. According to the Wall Street Journal, groups like the Chamber of Commerce and the Business Roundtable are thinking about "backing challengers to tea-party conservatives in GOP primaries, increasing political engagement with centrist Republicans." The Chamber of Commerce is reportedly "researching" what races they can influence in GOP primaries "in hopes of replacing tea-party conservatives with more business-friendly pragmatists" who would include support for comprehensive immigration reform.

“Yeah - uh huh. “Raise taxes on the 1 percent ... The ones that deserve it”. Seems I have heard that before. Nice try.”

You have heard that from the left. I say do it not because they are rich but because they are promoting amnesty and they are the owners of the liberal press. Have you heard that one? You break it you pay for it.

>> They sold us out on Obamacare and spending - now they’re going to open the borders.

You’re right! And I’m pro (small) business.

In recent weeks have seen illegal activists use chains and pipes to tie themselves to the tires of buses that carry immigrants slated for deportation to court, block traffic on Capitol Hill and get arrested, surround Tucson police when they targeted two immigrants during a traffic stop, and chain themselves and block the entrance of a federal detention center.More such actions, they vow, are coming.

We need to tie the pro-amnesty crowd to immigrants' rising tide of lawlessness....and the calculated plan to undermine US ntl security, and the safety and security of all Americans.

In America we value civility and consider our laws sacrosanct and inviolate. The utter contempt for America and American law was never so virulent.

The rising immigrant lawlessness underlines that these are violent, conniving invaders---- establishing a separate country with their own laws on US soil ---- EXCEPT---the greed-fueled invaders are using OUR tax dollars to foment the takeover.

The invaders are being coached by Mexico and other Third Worlds to undermine US ntl security and tear down democracy.

Clearly the pressure is building across the border, as conniving Mexico pushes North to begin Reconquista.

Obama is facilitating the invasion b/c he hates America as much as the invaders do.

Let's not forget---the Mexican border is the staging area for global terrorists, the criminal latino uderworld, Third World lowlifes, drug cartels, savage latinos, and the like..... come to Mexico to crossover into the US.

It's open season to conduct dirty deeds. Vicious Mexican gangs and drug cartels are operating freely across the border, setting up shop, right under the noses of vote-crazed US pols who will do anything to stay in power.

Hog-tying amnesty pimps to immigrant crimes should make them think twice.

These idiots are going to try to primary someone like Steve King who is trying to get them ethanol, wind and farm subsidies.

No one in the Iowa GOP dared to attack King for talking about the Dreamer thugs.

Funny thing is, this problem could be fixed Overnight, with a simple regulation change:

All Quarterly Payroll Tax Returns that contain 1 or more No Match Social Security numbers are hereby VOID. No Payroll Deduction for the entire quarterly report. Then Fine them the exact amount of said Payroll Report on top of that.

Everybody without a Valid SS number would be FIRED Overnight.

Need a simple ref chart to show $$$$ and entitlement favor relationships between La Raza, MechA, et al with big business groups and personalities and pols. Something that can be easily digested and depict the extent of the web of deceit going on under Americans noses.

Something that can go viral in a hurry and expose these rat bastards.

The donors should be pressured to cut off their donation to these groups.

I recently learned that the Koch brothers founded the libertarian Cato Institute. My spidey sense tells me that the big establishment rinos have been planning a non-conservative GOP by replacing conservatives with libertarians. Looking back, it does seem a little suspicious that the third party libertarian movement has gained much visibility and success when other third party efforts just seem to go nowhere. The Cato Institute was the think tank that gave birth to the libertarian third party movement. Koch is a treasonous open borders billionaire. To be sure he is working with other corporatist globalists. Watch out for the libertarians. They are usually very bright and very economics/numbers oriented. They tend to not care for social conservatives. They need to remember “Man does not live by bread alone.” It is not only about economics.

I don’t think Obamacare will effect them as they are Obama’s little darlings and anything they want will be theirs. They will probably still go to hospital emergency rooms or else Obama will give them some other kind of work around, maybe some kind of special card.

Don’t forget that illegals have purchased homes and they also purchase cars and other big ticket items. They may not pay income tax but they will have to pay property taxes and some other taxes. It may be that the illegal alien labor supply is at a glut and they are being underbid by newer illegals. I have read that this is common as there is a constant stream of illegals coming in and they work for less than the more established illegals.

A couple of years ago I looked up the National Council for LaRaza also known as the ncr. At that time there was a long, long list of their contributors. It read like a who’s who of foundations and corporate America. If you want to know who wants to replace us just look up this donors list.

If you work with your hands you will be replaced by a Mexican. If you work with with your brain you will be replaced by an Indian. If you had a manufacturing job you have already been replaced by Chinese labor.

Do our overlords care about what will happen to Americans? Apparently not. Sometimes I see pathetic pictures of little barefoot children in poor countries and I wonder if our grandchildren will be living in shacks, hungry, poor, uneducated and hopeless.

Could the Tea Party start their own version of the chamber of commerce? Give them a little competition. I can’t believe all the small town small businesses in the U.S. approve of what the chamber of commerce is up to.

Have you heard of the rainbow coalition? I saw a meeting of them on CSPAN. Jesse Jackson was speaking, the rainbow coalition consisted of Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, American Indians, Women and gays. Now I am sure they probably added Moslems. Anybody but White American men. The women were included to drive a wedge between White men and women.

The libertarian party was responsible for defeating Mia Love, Jesse Kelly,Jackie Walorski the first time, Dennis Rehberg for the Senate. Also Jon Porter who likely would of run against harry Reid and beat hm lost thanks to the libertarians. They only cost good conservativee elections. The rinos don't lsoe because of them.

If the illegals can picket why can’t Americans? Picket businesses that give money to LaRaza and paste it all over youtube. Sauce for the goose.

This is the old trick that Democrats do to defeat good Republicans in primaries.

There has to be a whole new way of looking at politics. We have to take a closer look at who we thought were our friends. There are many small town businesses that belong to business or local clubs, maybe there will be a growing awareness of who can be trusted and who cannot.

I also think that the millions of veterans in this country along with their multi-generational families and friends will start a wave that will pass throughout the country. The insults to the World War II veterans and the dead Afghanistan veterans’ families will awaken a sleeping giant.
