Ted Cruz on Jeb Bush: "Rule of law matters"
Politico ^ | April 8, 2014 | Lucy McCalmont

Posted on 04/08/2014 5:37:46 AM PDT by Biggirl

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz says illegal immigrants endure “heartbreaking” conditions, but wouldn’t agree with former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush that they aren’t committing a felony. “We’re a nation of immigrants, we need to celebrate that, but at the same time, rule of law matters,” Cruz said Monday on CNN’s “The Lead.”

Oy, ‘seems to be’?

Papa Bush came up with the ‘New World Order’.

THey bought an entire hour on Fox News the other night to have Brit Hume march around in a blazer and khakis touting the Bushes as the all American family, wherein all the Bushes came out complementing each other.

THese people have so much money and power it is sick, not because they have it, but because they pretend they don’t have it and they use it nefariously. And they, oh, Bill Clinton was on within three minutes talking about how wonderful Papa Bus is.

It is a conglomerate and we had better wise up.

Anyone who has a clue about how the constitution works and about how powerful and driven the clintonbushes are will win the presidency.

Jeb Bush!! Really?

I want all of these big “American” families of both parties, to turn around and start building up America once again.

We cannot continue to sell out.

We just cannot. America needs to be for America.

Bush (and others) stop selling out your very own country.

Bring back jobs to America. Now.

Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. I held my nose and voted for McCain, held my nose not quite so tightly and voted for Romney. As someone who has always voted, especially in primaries, if Bush is the nominee I will not vote.

Watch out! The Pollyanna Republicans are gonna get on their tricycles and come after you on this thread! They'll hit you with their lollypops!

Ever wonder why Sarah Palin, Ted Cruz and Mike Lee stand out so much nationally and are so hated? They have courage which is so lacking in the Republican party. So few defenders of the constitution, it’s just shameful.

the Bushes and the Clintons will not stop selling out.

It is up to the voters to not only understand that, and realize we cannot tell idiots what to do, that it is up to us to stop voting in selfish idiots, but to realize the amount of voter fraud involved when we run a liberal republican and they are neck and neck, cheating distance from the Clinton or kennedy candidate.

and that when rinos get into office, as they do when the bush candidate gets in, that they do just as much damage as Obama does.

they are not going to change.

Illegal Alien Invaders from Mexico daily demonstrate their “act of love” as they “love” to break our border laws because they know that politicians in “both” political parties will NOT insist that they laws they pass will be enforced.

The only Border “Reform” that needs to be done is to strictly enforce existing US Federal Border Laws, PERIOD.

If an unemployed person goes out and robs a store to get money to feed his family is it considered an “act of love”? Jeb Bush is a shallow liberal and not slick enough for what he is trying to pull off. He needs better RINO coaching on how to try and fool the base and make himself look tough and compassionate at the same time. :-)

Mrs. Bill Clinton will soon have to start making political speeches in Spanish.

Hey, maybe she will do some fake Mexican accent like her fake southern black accent! The first was good for laughs, the second would be even better. Too bad she doesn’t have to court Asian voters.

Papa Bush came up with the ‘New World Order’.

Actually it was the title of an address by Adolph Hitler on February 1, 1933: “My New World Order, Proclamation to the German Nation at Berlin”. The phrase has been used by other utopian ‘visionaries’ as well.

Well, live and learn; or so they say. Bush wasn’t perfect; no President has been. I’m real disappointed in my fellow Americans for electing this current Perpetual Vacationer and his ubiquitous Perpetual Vacationing Wifey. - As someone once observed; when Democrats get “their” turn at bat, they gut the military, then march into every skirmish all over the world they can find to send troops into. Bad idea to gut the military, and at the same time, wussify it; but the “Boy Wonder” either can’t comprehend that or else WON’T comprehend it. . “Ellen” notwithstanding.

Jeff Bush loves undocumented immigrants, but, where is his love for the millions of Americans unemployed? There are 91 million Americans out of the work force. Thanks to Obama we have the lowest participation in the work force since the 1970’s and some demagogues want to open wide our borders to hundreds of millions around the world who would love to enjoy the American dream... but that dream is becoming in an American nightmare for those born here and those who came legally to enjoy our way of life loving the U.S. as much as their country of birth.

What is even more aggravating is that people who entered the country illegally are demanding rights and privileges that American citizens do not enjoy and they did not dare to demand from the government of their own country.

California used to be the richest state of America. Now it is almost bankrupt. Anybody can see the result of uncontrolled illegal immigration, and companies are leaving to Texas, Florida and other red states with less taxes and better incentives to invest and prosper.

In fact, unemployment is now lower in Mexico than in U.S.; perhaps Americans will start moving south.

“rule of law matters”

It didn’t to amnesty pushing No Borders Dubya. And it doesn’t to his treasonous brother Jeb.

The problem with the privileged class is that they hold themselves above the law, especially when a law restrains their feelings.

This is nothing more than Republican liberals insisting that their feelings should rule the day instead of the law.

And if refusing to enforce immigration law damages average Americans, well too bad, they should have been born into privilege like the Bush boys.

“Rule of Law”! Absolutely! However, the idiots that have been voting for these SOB’s over the years don’t get it. It’s over their heads. Some are lawless to begin with but it certainly gets the base charged up IMO!

Jeff Bush extends the red carpet to undocumented migrants.

THE MOST DANFEROUS GANG IN AMERICA

Arian Campo-Flores, Newsweek, Mar. 28, 2005

The signs of a new threat in northern Virginia emerged ominously in blood-spattered urban streets and rural scrub.

Two summers ago the body of a young woman who had informed against her former gang associates was found on the banks of the Shenandoah River, repeatedly stabbed and her head nearly severed.

Last May in Alexandria, gang members armed with machetes hacked away at a member of the South Side Locos, slicing off some of his fingers and leaving others dangling by a shred of skin. Only a week later in Herndon, a member of the 18th Street gang was pumped full of .38-caliber bullets, while his female companion, who tried to flee, was shot in the back. The assailant, according to a witness, had a large tattoo emblazoned on his forehead. It read MS, for Mara Salvatrucha, the gang allegedly responsible for all these attacks.

At the nearby headquarters of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, agents—many of whom live in these communities—fielded the reports with mounting alarm. But Mara Salvatrucha, or MS-13, wasn’t terrifying just northern Virginia. “They were popping up everywhere,” says Chris Swecker, assistant director of the FBI’s criminal investigative division. “It seemed like we were hearing more and more about MS-13.” Then one day last fall, FBI Director Robert Mueller called Swecker into his office. “You have a mandate to go out and address this gang,” Mueller told him. Mueller declared MS-13 the top priority of the bureau’s criminal-enterprise branch—which targets organized crime—and authorized the creation of a new national task force to combat it.

The task force, which includes agencies like the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), aims to take on MS-13 much as the FBI once tackled the Mafia.

Composed of mostly Salvadorans and other Central Americans—many of them undocumented—the gang has a uniquely international profile, with an estimated 8,000 to 10,000 members in 33 states in the United States (out of more than 700,000 gang members overall), and tens of thousands more in Central America. It’s considered the fastest-growing, most violent and least understood of the nation’s street gangs—in part because U.S. law enforcement has not been watching as closely as it might have.

The rest of the history
