GOP Amnesty: The Final Last Straw
am thinker ^ | 2/4/14 | j hatter

The Republican Party is pushing immigration reform, and the GOP's new apparent political adviser, Chuck Schumer, gleefully approves. Next, the Democrat senator will be advising the party on gun control, government spending, abortion and homosexual marriage.

We finally have a news cycle that exposes Obama and his socialist Democrats' biggest blunder, the absolute worst piece of legislation in the history of the nation -- Obamacare. And the GOP's response is to divert national attention to an illegal immigration reform plan that most Americans adamantly oppose. Is the Republican leadership insane?

The editors at National Review call the GOP immigration reform push "one of the most mystifyingly stupid misadventures in recent congressional history." The GOP establishment (GOPe) doesn't need to be handing the media issues to flog us with. The party needs to focus on winning elections, and that means flogging the Democrats with issues that matter -- jobs, Obamacare, and government spending -- day after day. But Speaker Boehner is forcing the issue of immigration to the front burner, instead of issues Americans desperately care about.

"Day after the 2012 election, I said it's time for Congress and the president to deal with this very important issue," Boehner said at a morning news conference. "I think it's time to deal with it."

John Boehner is bumbling around doing the bidding of the last powerful interest group who talked to him, the Chamber of Commerce.

I don’t believe the GOP is insane, or stupid. I am convinced that every move they make is predicated on the idea of destroying the Tea Party. That has become their reason for being and their obsession with it is so great, they don’t care if they, and the nation itself , are wiped out in the process.

It was not only offensive, it was a purposeful effort to blur national pride into some amalgam of’multi-culturalism’. There will NEVER be another coke product allowed into this house. Coke lusts for world markets and for the USofA to be just another consumer field to exploit in multi-cultural business manipulations. Quisling bastards ...
