Joe Carr: Lamar Alexander Allowing Illegal Immigrants to Assault U.S. Sovereignty
Big Government ^ | 6/16/2014 | Tony Lee

Dave Brat's shocking victory over House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) last week has inspired conservative underdogs like Joe Carr, a Tennessee state Representative who is challenging establishment Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-TN) in an August 7th primary, to win their primaries against all odds.

Carr, who represents a district in Middle Tennessee, appeared on Breitbart News Sunday and told Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow that he is taking on Alexander because Alexander represents the sense of "complacency" and "malaise" in D.C. while illegal immigrants and the Obama administration's lawlessness are assaulting the country's sovereignty.

Carr has led on illegal immigration issues in the statehouse, successfully passing into law E-verify bills and others that prohibited taxpayer benefits to illegal immigrants and banned sanctuary cities.

He said his campaign has been building a grassroots network throughout the state in anticipation of a "seminal and catalyst event that was going to turn everything upside down" before the August primary. And Cantor's upset was the spark that the campaign had been preparing for.

"As I've crossed the state, [voters] want a government that is responsive to the idea of personal responsibility, individual liberty, free and fair markets, and return to the sovereignty of the state," Carr said. "Lamar Alexander is the absolute antithesis of that."

It’s just the “transparent” U.S. Government’s policy of putting illegal alien “children” ahead of American kids. No big deal.

And don't forget his vote to confirm the Wide Latina to the SCOTUS ... nine Senate Republicans voting to confirm her were Sens. George Voinovich of Ohio, Judd Gregg of New Hampshire, Kit Bond of Missouri, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Susan Collins of Maine, Olympia Snowe of Maine, Mel Martinez of Florida, Richard Lugar of Indiana and Lamar Alexander of Tennessee."

Six of them are already out; only three more to go. It's Lamar(!)'s turn next.

Every opponent of EVERY RINO office holder in a primary right now should be shouting AMNESTY, AMNESTY, AMNESTY over and over and over again as an indictment against the incumbent, regardless.

It seems to be it has the equivalent power as the much hallowed ‘race card’. Let’s use it.

People in TN would never in their minds associate Lamar! with illegal immingration; just won’t happen. That was very shrewd of him to use that exclamation point years ago; people remember that gimmick.

Dallas Texas 2006:

500,000 illegals and their supporters march on Dallas Texas making demands and threats while pushing foreign flags in your faces...

During Bush's term...

So emboldened by Bush and his loving friendship with a country who's population is totally disrespects our laws and rules...

Never in the history of America was seen such a massive display of lawlessness...All during war time yet, while Bush aided and abetted this epic lawless invasion, tens of millions poured in unabated...

Those Americans who'd had enough of these country killing policies volunteered to protect our borders, only to have Bush discredit them while calling them "vigilantes".

During that term, Bush celebrated Cinco De Mayo up in the White House.

If you are insinuating that GWB helped set the stage for Obama, you would be right. But Obama won’t set the stage for Jebbie. The Bushes have been fooled again.
