Senators Offer a Bipartisan Blueprint for Immigration (Amnesty bill written by RINO Hatch)
NY Times ^ | 1/28/13 | JULIA PRESTON

Posted on 01/28/2013 6:03:17 AM PST by jimbo123

A bipartisan group of senators has agreed on a set of principles for a sweeping overhaul of the immigration system, including a pathway to American citizenship for 11 million illegal immigrants that would hinge on progress in securing the borders and ensuring that foreigners leave the country when their visas expire.

-snip-

“We on the Democratic side have said that we are flexible and we want to get a bill,” Mr. Schumer told reporters in New York on Sunday. “But there’s a bottom line, and that’s a path to citizenship for the 11 or so million people who qualify. We’ve made great, great progress with our Republican colleagues.”

Palin and Hatch are personal friends. Sometimes friendship trumps politics. But he’s still a terrible RINO.

>> Sometimes friendship trumps politics.

Sure, and that’s to be expected. But it’s problematic when friendship trumps character and good judgment, too.

I’ll choose not to follow (or fund) such a one who allows friendship to cloud her judgment and interfere with her claimed purpose.

Hatch is Mark Levin’s fault.

At least in part. When it comes to picking candidates, Levin is not the best one to listen to, even though he is the best one for legal issues and some other analysis.

Yes, Mark Levin was pushing Hatch over a Tea Party Conservative during the GOP primary race in Utah. I specifically remember his cheer leader like interview with Hatch, and his vocal support of Hatch

I do not trust Levin. He acted like a vagina on the Obama Eligibility issue....when he spends alot of time bragging about getting Clintons law license taken over Monica Lewinsky/Paula Jones.....an Ineligible President less important than a horny one? He is Pp also good buddies with Amnesty Liberal Sean Hannity.....wonder when he boards the bus for the “Hannity Amnesty” tour

When is the treatment of American citizens in Mexico and their rights vs US treatment of Mexicans going to be an issue when we discuss amnesty ?

Ever hear of reciprocal aggrements ? These are arranged to protect the rights of American citizens working or living in other countries.

Why is it when it comes to citizens of other countries we are required to offer them the same privledges as we do to US citizens? But when it comes to US citizens who get in trouble or attempt to do business in other countries they do not get the same treatment their citizens get.

Americans can’t own coast land in Mexico. And get no title to it elsewhere. If they run out of cash they’ll get unceremoniously sent back or put in jail untill some relative comes up with the “fresh”. That’s just for starters as for granting them voting privledges yea let’s give Mexican citizens that right when American citizens vote in their elections .

Palin came out in support of legalization a while back.
