“Not that there are women issues – I agree with Ann – there are no women issues, but this issue of immigration directly impacts women, and it’s usually the mom and the kids,” she said.

Did he really? Ileana Ros-Lehtinen is pretty conservative for the most part.

The same Ros-Lehtinen that almost solely called out 0bama and the State Dept. on Honduras.

Doesn’t make up for the RINO activity.

Liberal nonsequitur.

George Washington was as impure as any human, but he didn’t compromise on his vision for the country. IOW, he did not fight God. These politicians do. And the results are plain to see.
