McCain and Graham again want us to "shut up, just shut up!"

They've been pushing for Amnesty by hook or by crook, and they really don't care how it happens.

Remember Graham's concerns about "the process" during the Gang of 14/Nuclear Option debate?? Well he doesn't seem to give a damn about "the process" now, does he?

Two of the masters of “stupid responses” take it upon themselves to warn others about “stupid responses”. Yeah, I know I’d go to these two for advice on saying stupid things.

I would bet you could count on one hand, the number of Republicans who really oppose this amnesty enough on behalf of law-abiding Americans, to really do something concrete and material. More than a few of them have wanted amnesty.

Such insipid cowardice enabled Fast&Furious,
enabled the IRS atrocity, enabled arming al Qaeda,
enabled ObamaCARE with its two classes of Americans,
enabled open borders, enabled EV-68 murdering
children by Quartering to this day.

And that was when McCain and Graham were not
arming slavers and rapists from Libya to Syria.

Elders? What is this, church? They need to stop acting like they speak for everyone. They speak for their respective states. Now they need to shut up and let everyone else say whatever they want to say.

The big win Nov 5 was driven by Obamacare, Jobs, Economy. Every poll indicates that immigration was low priority with most voters. With Hispanics immigration was their #10 priority after 9 other issues. The same with Blacks, Whites, Democrats, Republicans and independents.

Obama is making immigration the issue precisely because he does not want us to focus on the issues that are high priority with Americans. This is straight out of Reveille for Radicals..and out of Machiavelli and his predecssors.

Look at the shiny object over there.

McCain and Graham Advise:

"Just drop trou and let Obama give you a good rogering.
It's not so bad after the 40th or 50th time."

The discussion should include a “measured” discussion of impeachment in my opinion (but I’m often wrong about these things). I don’t think the GOP-e should shove it completely off the table.

Unfortunately, the word has obviously come down from the top of Fox news to the talent to affirmatively discourage any attempts to withhold funding or to impeach. This is obvious from the discussions on The Five and from the remarks of Charles Krauthammer. It appears that Karl Rove is dominant both behind as well is in front of the cameras.

Not a word has been uttered by any Republican leader that would educate the public about the gravity of this assault on the Constitution by Barack Obama. No effort to convince the country that their liberty is at stake. Beyond that, no evidence that the Republican leadership is endeavoring to connect 5 million immigrants with lost jobs, lower wages, flooded emergency rooms, over crowded schools, dangerous streets, higher taxes and bigger more bloated government. There is no attempt by the Republican leadership to tell the people why this is such a miscarriage of their liberty and a looting of their purse.

In view of the participation of so many Republican senators in that traitorous bill to foment amnesty and the patently unenthusiastic efforts of Boehner to withhold the vote in the House, it is clear that a significant part of the Republican leadership wants amnesty. It is as clear as the reality that they do not want to actually repeal Obamacare.

There is no campaign against amnesty, the campaign is against those who oppose amnesty. They don't want the country educated, they certainly don't want the country agitated, they want this to fade from consciousness.

If Republicans are careless in their speech, the MSM line will be: "Opposition to Obama's noble effort to reunite families is rooted in pure racism."

If Republicans are careful in their speech, the MSM reaction will be: "Opposition to Obama's noble effort to reunite families is rooted in pure racism."

Perhaps a bit more effort should be put - ala Reagan - into talking over the heads of the MSM and putting the issues into to clear, unmistakable language that the politically out-of-touch can understand. As the Swiss Guards of the Welfare State, the MSM is never going to characterize any issue in a way favorable to those who wish to shrink said State, no matter how careful their speech.

“’Count to 100 before you say anything,’ South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham said he told conservatives in the House.”

Nothing like unsolicited advice from Tippy Toes.

Perhaps these two could point to ANY success against Obama they've had using their wise & prudent approach.

I'd love to hear them explain whats the use in avoiding saying anything "controversial" if your side keeps losing fight after fight.

What a pair of cupcakes.
