That is exactly what is happening.

Someplace yesterday when reading an article on the establishment on Fox trying to sell the idea that Cruz was in favor of amnesty just like Rubio, I ran across something I didn’t know about the old comprehensive immigration bill.

I did not know that that bill, even though it paid lip service to border security, did not establish in law that new illegals could not also receive that amnesty. That blew me away.

It says the same thing you are saying here: they will legalize this crop of ultra-low wagers and bring in another crop to do those jobs while the former low-wagers take minimum wage jobs and higher....eventually replacing native Americans.

This is an all out assault, not just on sovereignty, but on the existence of America.

Ralph Peters was suspended from FOX News for 2 weeks for using words far less vile than yours.

Perhaps the Moderator of JR will be appropriately much harsher towards your transgression.

Trump is the last hope, I wish he could have gone 3 party, the GOPe is a disgrace, Reagan must be turning over in the grave.

And there in lies the great last hope that elections will fix what is BROKE in America and I am here to tell you it will not

There are way too many takers and not enough producers left as Ayn Rand so magnificently writes about in the book. Until the balance is restored by first removing people that keep feeding the takers by force then obliterating the takers by force or attrition we spin our wheels voting. Reason why, we can put new faces into position but the feeders corrupt the new faces and the cycle starts over.

I say, let's feed some pigs until they pop to save America

I guess the citizens of the USA will need to be eating tree bark to survive before they decide to clean up their government. Obviously by then it will be way too late.

I just emailed my Congressman Rick Allen and told him that his vote for this bill was nothing more than a give away to Pelosi and Obama. Also told him that he is no better than the man he replaced, a democrat named John Barrow. The GOP is dead .

In great detail, Ted Cruz lays bare the many specific examples of deceit and parliamentary tricks that the Republican leadership has employed to thwart the will of Republican voters. He shines a light in all the dark corners of Washington forcing the cockroaches in Congress to scurry for cover.
********************************************************************************
Yep. Although perhaps the strange collection of posters who claim that Ted Cruz is really for Amnesty although he voted against it will sally forth and claim that Cruz was for this monstrosity of a spending bill even though he certainly will vote against it.

I am 100% in agreement with Cruz’s assessment.
Listening to Breitbart radio on the way to work this morning, so was every caller.
We’ve lost the country if this passes.
We will be just another European nation.
What was the point of the American Revolution, if we just become another European nation 200+ years later?
We might as well anoint Obama as King and be done with this charade.
This may be the election of our lives, literally, as a Sovereign American nation.
H2B increases and resettling Illegal aliens here?
We have enough illegal lawn mowers and roofers now.
Not to mention, LEGAL immigrant abuses by American companies driving out our own workforce from the marketplace?
This congress has done NOTHING to stop this takeover.
WTF?

Are you talking about the guy from the Dallas TV show? Did not know he had a moderator or needed one. He died.

Thank you. This lady gets so sick of the vile language used by some on FR. I understand the frustration that brings those words forth, but there are many ladies present here who do not want to be subjected to those words.

Supine catamite BuffaloHead had a problem with me writing that these traitors need to be hauled from their offices by their ballsacks and be curb stomped. Reported me to Jewish Republic, I guess... and the post was yanked... I think the user actually wants me excommunicated from here so that they may further their uniparty agenda.

Are surrendering, hell! The Republicans surrendered long ago. They surrendered before the fight even started. In North Africa, the Vichy French as least fired a symbolic volley in the air before surrendering. The Republicans do not even do that. They just surrender each time they her,"Government Shutdown".

Looks like your post was removed due to language. A certain word could not stay.

You are here long enough to know that we don’t write offensive words in full. Symbols in place of letters gets the point across.

But you do get bonus points for using “catamite.”

It was very appropos.

I disagree. The GOPe wants what Obama wants, Big Government and a crushed middle class. That’s not surrendering.

The only alternative is about 10 or so conservatives to abandon or get elected in the next election, that are neither Republican or Demoncrat, and as a third party that could control the agenda in the Senate. Since neither of the 2 current parties would have a majority, the only way anything could get approved would be to abide by the new parties desires, much like the Gang of 8, but with a much more conservative agenda. Maybe Ted Cruz is laying the groundwork for that.

The democrats and republicans are friends. They would find 10 of their friends across the aisle to help them out. They don’t get called the ‘uniparty’ for nothing.

Billions of dollars were given to illegals, Muslim ‘refugees we can't vet, and Sanctuary cities, but the same congress will tell us we've got to cut social security and raise the retirement age.

These folks don't give a damn about American citizens.

We need conservatives... Maybe Jeff Sessions can help find some honorable Americans to start the process of becoming tomorrow's leaders.
