GOP Congresswoman: ‘Immigration Is Really a Woman Issue’ (Ros-Lehtinen)
Cybercast News Service ^ | December 5, 2013 - 1:11 PM | Melanie Hunter

Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla.), speaking at a forum on women leadership on Wednesday, said immigration is a woman issue, because the male has either been deported or the father “is not present.”

“I think that folks who have dealt with refugees and immigrant families see how much it impacts women, because so often many times, the male is not there. Either he’s been deported or the dad is not present. And immigration is really a woman issue. It’s a family-centered issue,” Ros-Lehtinen said at the forum sponsored by Politico. …

By your standard, the GOP has absolutely no RINOs then. Good luck trying to push that view on conservatives.

The devil can quote Scripture. Telling lies like that is pure Alinsky.

You’re defending a RINO. That’s all that needs to be said. Satan quotes scripture out of context (like when he used Psalm 91:12 in Matthew 4:6 and Luke 4:9), but the context I provide seems to be frightening you rather than making you think.

It’s politicians that have been nominally “conservative for the most part” (the definition of a RINO) with the little leaven of liberalism starting to leaven the whole lump that have damaged the USA a great deal. And may even deal the fatal blow. This thread is about exactly that problem.

No, people who call people liars without cause are using Alinsky tactics.

Without cause? lol

I posted irrefutable evidence that you lied about what I said. There is no going back from that.

You seem to be a bit confused. I never lied about anything you said. I merely said that it pointed towards a certain logical end, which was not a direct quote from you but my conclusion. Sorry if you thought that to be offensive.

But hey, if you think that being “conservative for the most part” is going to save us in the face of what God is telling us, then cling to that and witness what results. I can only go by God’s own word, and He doesn’t lie.

I never said you said “all conservative”, though. You are mistaking my conclusion about what you said as my misquoting you, but I never did misquote you (which is the definition of lying about something you said). It is more fair to say that you believe I have an incorrect opinion about what you said.

My opinion about the meaninglessness of one allegedly being “pretty conservative for the most part” stands, and you are free to disagree with it at your own peril—but unfortunately, it is also the peril of the country.

Yes you did. Here's the evidence...

Looks like you lied again.

Bump

To both of you

When TE went personal you knew he knew he was ill prepared to argue

Mrs Dexter Lehtinen is simply showing she places more priority on her Hispanic self identification than on American cultural integrity and immigration laws

Very very rare is any immigrant group minority that does not prostitute their values and ideal for their DNA kin

And they will outnumber us soon enough

Tonight Mandela is a hero to so called conservatives

In 20 years it might be Hugo Chavez or another Ortega or Castro

And short of violence I’m doubtful we can stop it

If you mean this post, then I certainly apologize for saying “your words” when that was not a direct quote from you.

But here, I was expressing my opinion. But you called my opinion a “lie” when an opinion by its nature cannot be. It is right, though, to say that paying lip service to a single issue is not the same as being consistent with one issue, and I do agree with that; so I will retract that too.

Notwithstanding, I will have to stand against this. We have had too many double agents already.

I can only tell them what’s going to be the end result. That is simply not going to change.

Double-minded people are unstable in all their ways, as James 1:8 says. We’ve just passed a holiday established for the purpose of prayer and fasting too, but did our leaders even mention an inkling of that?

No offense to the conservative FR women, but “women’s issues” is a big part of what sent this country spiraling out of control - suffrage opened the door and the rest is history. Without women, the left-wing agenda wouldn’t have gotten as oppressive as it is.

Pimping for causes is the American way of life. Next?

The cause she's pimping for is the biggest threat to the American way of life. If and when enough immigrants are granted the right to vote, the new democrat super majority will be electing people who oppose the pro-life views of the congresswoman.

I don’t like the abandonment of border enforcement, but the fact of it long ago set the table for intentionally attracting a foreign labor force, and we all know that. The results was predictable, and the blame belongs to Uncle Sam, for dereliction of duty. But oh no, the punitive measures are to fall only on the heads the well baited laborers, decades later, who have by now raised innocent children here?

What is wrong with this picture?

Heaping punitive measures on whole families because we lured them in nearly smacks of entrapment. I say we take our medicine. Own up from our stupid mistakes, shut down the border, enforce the laws going forward.

People notice the hypocrisy of a bait-and-switch operation when they see it, which leads me to believe something close to amnesty is more popular than is even suspected. I believe whether it is anathema in certain quarters or not, that majorities see the accountability and responsibility for this dire circumstance lay squarely at the feet of the US Government.

Just sayin’.

America slept when border enforcement evaporated and they hired up every single Mexican lured over.

These people are not yet enemies of the state because they don’t vote Republican. We are not Nazis.

The point is that minorities are increasingly majorities in many states and it is the Anglo who is becoming a minority. I read that wealthy whites are now majority Democrats.

We are doomed if that is the end result. I know of no country that is not governed by whites or asians ...except perhaps India...that isn't a a banana republic in most respects. Or an Islamic hellhole. The terms xenophobe or racist mean nothing to me. Just sayin’.

As Scarlett said, “tomorrow is another day”, but The US should have already come down like a ton of bricks and sealed our border, by any and every means known to mankind, if we expect to survive. The Dems are risking our security for votes, and so did Bush.

I am addressing specific Mexican populations who pose no threat, but are in school, with working parents/grandparents, and who know no other country but this one. I just don’t believe we will break up families and ship off parents from their children as if they were Al Quaida.
