Obama Lures Republicans Into His Immigration Trap
Center For Immigration Studies ^ | 29 October 2013 | Jon Feere

Posted on 11/04/2013 12:02:34 PM PST by zeestephen

Mr. Obama needs Republicans in the House of Representatives to initiate an immigration bill. Why? Because the Senate bill raises revenue and the Constitution requires all bills raising revenue to originate in the House, not the Senate.

Mr. Obama is looking for another win, this time the creation of tens of millions of Democratic voters through a bill that would amnesty illegal aliens and double legal immigration.

Many Republican congressmen are chomping at the bit to help the president score a second-term victory.

If this passes the House, the Republican Party is dead. We will have a real one-party state.

if this is true obama’s desires for immigration amnesty can only happen if republicans want to give it to him.

The Republicans should return an impeachment bill for the President’s failure to enforce the laws restricting immigration.

If you don’t enforce the laws, it hardly makes any difference what the law is.

I do not believe Obama will have any problem with getting immigration through Congress.

RINO’s will help him all they can, they are still so stupid they believe if they pass the bill Hispanics will vote for them.

No matter how anyone feels about any other program or policy this one is everything. We won’t need to vote anymore. we’ll be impossibly out numbered. This is the fight we have to win.
This needs be on every Republicans platform. If they start making making any sort of noise in favor of anything but deportation then they need to be tossed out.

This is the hill we all need to die on. Thank God my senator is Jeff Sessions. I believe Shelby will be against this too.

I wrote my Congressman to tell him I don’t want to see ANY immigration bill proposed until unemployment rates come back down to G. W. Bush levels.

Admitting low-skilled migrants now will only keep wages down and unemployment rates up.

Who(m) will you write?

We will try and start a third party.

I think the Dems will lose many millions of votes over Obamacare.

Republicans were supposed to play good cop to the right and bad cop to the left, and Democrates the opposite.

However our dum arse Karl Rove GOPe inc are now playing bad cop on against both sides... and like Dennis Rodman they make positive plublicity for dictators that already have a lock on the media in never criticizing them under virtual penalty of death.

Such groupie cowardly redundancy continues its milking of America and not organizing a defense against an obvious incoming invasion.

Not a chance. A third party would be another business gravy train Perrot style.

At that point in time full cessession might be the only way out, and we will get invaded because no liberal will oppose a foreign attack on US soil and Republicans will not repel it.

And that is why the GOP doesn’t care about conservatives. Their reasoning is Who else are they gonna vote for?

Re: “Who else are they gonna vote for?”

That's the way I have voted since 1988.

No more.

If the GOP cannot stop ObamaCare and Amnesty, they are useless.

I will stay home.
