What is a legalized illegal? I thought you had to be one or the other?

Re: the disability scam (this article looks at one county in Alabama where one in four adults is on disability: http://apps.npr.org/unfit-for-work/), at least nine out of 10 such cases could take back an Indian outsourcing job by doing call center work from home—and probably six out of 10 could do more than that.

Hello: we’ve got millions and millions of college students that we’re paying to take asinine classes. They could at least work through harvesting and still take classes without us having to pay so much.

Just think: it would be like a months-long spring break once you get all those college kids together in a remote area.

Mitt Romneycare didn’t lose because he hurt illegals’ feelings. Jeesh!

Even Sen. Amnesty Rubio lost the non-Cuban Hispanic vote in FL. Lef-leaning voters are left-leaning voters, whether they are still in their native Latin America or they’ve broken into the US.

Stop giving them jobs and welfare and most of them will go home. We can easily kick out the rest.

Then take away the welfare.
We don’t need the illegals while able-bodied adults are sitting on their asses.

“They not going home.”

Sorry Rand, but take away their welfare and their jobs in the US, and they WILL go home, and the economy of Mexico is doing MUCH BETTER than ours, so there are jobs to go to.

RAND PAUL
Eric Cantor Kevin McCarthy
Paul Ryan
Duncan Hunter
Ted Cruz

Let's see. Cantor and McCarthy are House Republican 'leadership'. Ryan is infected by Romneyism.

That leaves three and you've got them in the wrong order. If any of these three decide to run, I'll take Cruz.

Last summer in Michigan the fruit crops failed so all the “migrants” were given welfare. Now growers are bringing in more migrants to work this year because its too hard to round the old ones up.

This is EXACTLY why you see no Americans working on cruise ships. The pay is less than you would make sitting on your a$$ sucking on the USA golden teat.

RE :”Did your grandparents apply from Europe to be citizens or did they turn up ILLEGALLY and then apply?”

My grandparents came here legally then later applied for citizenship.

If illegals want to be able to vote HERE like I do then they can leave voluntarily and then apply to come here legally outside the US like everyone else does, like my grandparents did.

Just because my grandparents followed the legal process and waited in line doesnt mean they were rounded up into concentration cames, as your silly analogy goes.

Rand paul is pretty dishonest claiming he wants to eliminate all those programs after admitting he thinks that illegals should be able to vote.
If Rand thought they would support that at all he would have mentioned his 'plan' in his outreach speech to Hispanics the other day.

But maybe Rand is just like dad, he wants a permanent Dem majority so he has no responsibility. Voting illegals will do that for sure.

FWIW:

Paul would have made his point better by saying something like: why work for $8 hr, when you can littterally sit home and take in $32,000 plus a year in benefits and cash from our misnamed ‘social safety net’.

I have no idea why on earth we give welfare out anymore, to ANYONE, for ANY REASON!! It has got to stop. It has to be taken away from Democrats in some way. It is a magnet for every freeloader on the planet — and every freeloader here.

How can we abolish it? How can we end the Earned income tax credit? That is also a colossal scam. Saw the posters at work the other day ...it literally advertises itself as a way to “increase your income” if you are a “hardworking family.”

Well, WE are a hardworking family, too. We are up at the crack of dawn, every single day. We worked out way through college, rarely take vacations. But since we can do a higher level of work, the only way WE increase our income is to work harder and learn more skills.

Why is it one rule for one set, and welfare for the other?

End the welfare. End the earned income tax credits. End disability for everyone who breaks their little finger. End the giveaways of OUR hard earned money!!

I would say that mine came here legally. This is from my great grandfathers "Declaration of intent". He spent 3 or 4 years in St Catherines Ontario while waiting to cross the border.

False.

by then you’d hope they would learn about the US constitution, free markets and that the GOP is the party of jobs and prosperity

Unlike the majority of Americans.
