EXCLUSIVE: SESSIONS ARMS HOUSE REPUBLICANS AGAINST BOEHNER IMMIGRATION PUSH
Breitbart ^ | 1/29/14 | MATTHEW BOYLE

Posted on 01/29/2014 10:48:02 AM PST by jimbo123

In an unusually aggressive move, top immigration hawk Sen. Jeff Session (R-AL) is moving to preemptively arm House Republicans with anti-amnesty talking points and other materials ahead of a major planning session at the House GOP's Maryland retreat tomorrow.

Sessions' office hand-delivered a four-piece packet to House members that includes a “Myth vs. Fact” document on immigration talking points to prepare them to fight back against immigration proposals Speaker John Boehner is expected to push in a closed-door meeting.

The 14-page Myth vs. Fact document, provided exclusively to Breitbart News by Sessions' staff, breaks down 10 of the major talking points commonly used by amnesty proponents and offers detailed rebuttals.

For example, the first "myth" reads, “There should be no special path to citizenship for those who have broken our immigration laws."

In response, Sessions writes, “Any path that leads to a green card for someone who is currently ineligible for a green card because they violated U.S. immigration laws, such as the Senate bill, is a special path to citizenship.”

The packet is unusual because members of the Senate generally do not involve themselves heavily in the internal affairs of the House as a matter of protocol. Sessions has recently shown a new willingness to challenge Boehner in this regard, creating an interesting political dynamic beyond the explosive immigration debate.

5 Alabama should be proud of this man.

Many of us are, but the local newspapers, all liberal, hate him. He comes across as a gentleman. Sad to say, but I think the GOP needs a conservative firebrand of equal intensity to Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY).

This is one of the only guys out there willing to fight the unholy alliance of communists and corporatism trying to boost immigration to further their interests.

Sessions makes common sense statements about immigration, and isn’t a liar like Rubio and Boehner and all of the rest of the country clubbers trying to sell us down the river

We don’t need new immigrants or to give amnesty in any form to the illegal ones already here.

There are millions of Americans out of work, anyone pushing immigration reform is an enemy of the common american citizen

12 ... Sessions was one of the 13 or so Representatives from Texas who voted for the Trillion dollar budget ...

Wrong "Sessions". The post is about U.S. Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL).

The immigration bill is more about transforming the culture


Exactamundo, FRiend. Both progressive Republicans and Dems want to reshape the electorate into a more pliable mold. A lot issues are really about that idea now. Common core, amnesty, etc., etc.

WHOOPS!!! Keep forgetting there are two. Cold weather has obviously affected my memory. Many of us in Texas would trade you our Sessions for the one in Alabama.

See my reply to Jane Long and McNaughton. Too much cold weather has had a negative effect on the brain.

This is about Senator Sessions from Alabama.
That’s why the article talks about how unusual it is for senators to get involved in the internal workings if the House.

Good for Sessions...he has remained pro-American while many others are siding with Illegal Aliens

Sessions also realizes that if there aren’t millions of Illegal Aliens streaming back across the Mexican border before the 2014 and 2016 elections...the GOP is toast

Cold weather has obviously affected my memory. Many of us in Texas would trade you our Sessions for the one in Alabama.

And many of us in Wisconsin will trade our arctic cold weather for your relatively tropical Texas cold weather.

John Boehner - just one more reason why I no longer consider myself a member of the Republican Party. To paraphrase the late great President Ronald Reagan when asked why he left the Democrat Party. “I did not leave the party, the party left me.”

I hope there are enough patriots like Sessions left on the Hill to thwart the treason of Boehner, McCain, Obama and other anti-Americans who can't wait for Mexico-merger and the end of the USA.

There were enough patriots some years ago to stop George Jr.'s wished for Amnesty, don't know about today.
