Romney has nothing prepared on principle

Romney has no principles. He's like Al Gore. Remember how Al Gore made pro gay marriage speeches in San Francisco and the next day he was in Texas talking traditional marriage? That's Romney. Sad to say but true.

The best way to deal with this no matter who our candidate is is to just come out and say he will do away with all of Obama's executive orders not because of the policy but because of how the policy was put into action. Then he can say (as most have said including Sarah Palin) that if an immigration reform bill comes to his desk which he can support he will sign it. That way it will be a bill that passed legally and not by one man.

I do remember. Another apt comparison. Empty suits speak alike.

Obama is no empty suit. There will be those who will applaud that, and after this quick gesture Hispanics are going to be ones who will.

Why Republican conservatives vote for a vacum, I just can’t get. Romney may win on the liberal votes. smirk.

I’ve been saying that the GOPE are pudding. Hell’s bells, it is WE who are pudding. We’re voting for a Progressive right along with the Democrats.

Why would they want to be citizens? Surely they see the way the Ruling Elite politicians treat us.

If as we all Know this Immigration Reform=Amnesty,and all of these scum sucking politicians are all wetting their Pants over it,I dont understand why they all get twisted into Knots over it. How Many Issues have we seen in our lives where Politicians Lament Day and Night for years about how are we going to fix this or that,If this amnesty is so freakin great Just Freakin DO IT! The reason being I am sick and tired of A-Holes Like Romney coming out and Spewing Bilge about Long term this and That. The Marxist Obama just Does it and the Hell with us Peons. The Republicans are Just a Bunch Of Pussies

Elect conservatives and patriots in your local and state elections, so the states can start throwing the illegals out and arresting CEOs who hire them.

What about the risk of losing white voters?

How about if we just "get it right", by deporting ALL non-U.S. Citizens, and start over?

The cost of such an effort will be FAR out-weighed by the savings in all the handouts they're being given, millions of jobs will be opened for U.S. Citizens, and we will have REAL Citizens' votes counting, while not being off-set with votes by Illegal, Criminal Invaders.

The very idea that a POTUS can pick and choose WHICH LAWS he wants to abide by (selective Enforcement), should be attacked as Treason, and prosecuted fully. There's no sense in having a Congress that cannot pass Laws that will have ANY effect, when the POTUS can ignore them if he doesn't like them.
