One other thing. This is what Ann said,
"I mean my whole life I've heard Republicans hate black people, I've never seen any evidence of it until I read Marco Rubio's amnesty bill. We are the party that has always stood up for African-Americans. Who gets hurt the most by amnesty, by continuing these immigration policies it is low-wage workers, it is hispanics, it is blacks."
She didn't say Rubio hated blacks. Read the statement and understand the context. You seem to be missing the point as usual.
Perhaps. If you only listen to him when he's "severely conservative," trying to win the nomination. Before then and after the nomination, he's all for pathways and extra help working his lawn.
Marco Rineo is exposed..
Everything is relative. Romney started off well when he enlisted Kris Kobach to be his adviser on immigration. He said all the right things during the primaries. Then came the famous meeting on Long Island with Murdoch and other high rollers, and the rest is history.
you missed the joke
The Republican Party is committing collective suicide.
Yes, all those nice kids at Starbucks would be competing with the tidal wave of illegals if they became legal. Starbucks would be knee-deep in lawsuits every time they hired someone who is not a newly “documented” illegal.
All these charming businesses who want the low-paid help would be screaming for mercy. Everyone wonders just how many there really are? We would find out quickly.
“It was a very good point: that if you’re in favor of amnesty, it’s tantamount to hating blacks.”
No. If you support amnesty, blacks will probably be hurt by the influx of cheap labor, but that does not suggest INTENTION to hurt blacks. We have a couple of racists in the White House, but Rubio doesn’t hate blacks.
Given who Ann tends to support these days, I suspect this is meant to hurt Rubio so that some RINO, GOP-E type (Jeb?) can move to the front.
You obviously don’t know what “tantamount” means. It means it might as well be intentional. If Ann meant intentional she would have said so.
Who is it meant to hurt? We import hundreds of thousands of unskilled labor every year, legal and illegal. Are you suggesting that the political class doesn't know that this will take jobs from Americans and depress wages? Of course it is intentional. The corporate paymasters are dictating policy. We have 21 million unemployed or underemployed Americans. We don't need 1.2 million legal permanent immigrants a year plus 700,000 foreign workers on temporary work visas.
An amnesty legalizes another 8 million workers to compete with Americans for jobs. Obama's backdoor amnesty has already provided 500,000 work permits and SSNs to Dreamers and there are another 1.3 million more eligible to apply.
With Romney you have to know context. As I said even, before the primary season in 2012, he was an amnesty lover. He says one thing to one group and something else to another group.
Romney is always a RINO except when he, in his own words, is a severe conservative. Remember his own socialist lib father was born in Mexico. Also, Mitt had illegals working on his yard (he was caught red handed on two separate occasions) when he ran before the ‘08 convention.
Anyone who believes that prevaricator holds a conservative position is either lying or naive. Is he a republican, yes. Is he a liberal/socialist, yes, of the Fabian persuasion. Is he a conservative with conservative beliefs, never. He hates conservatives. He hated them since he and his father hated Reagan years ago. He hasn’t shown any signs of changing. He just pretends to change in order to get the nomination. Don’t be fooled.
Romney tried to be everybody’s huckleberry. And that ended up with him being nobody’s huckleberry because you can’t do two contradictory things simultaneously.
Yeah, well since Ann has attacked both Cruz and Rubio within days of each other, and you support Ann, it’s probably fair to say that I didn’t know how much Ann hated Hispanics til I read kabar’s defense of her.
Tell me that doesn’t infer that you are among those who hate Hispanics.
I’m betting on it being Jeb, too, since this attack on Rubio is on Jeb’s fellow Floridian.
clever!
Ann who?
I only lasted a year before I quit. If you want to know the company it’s Poland Spring water which is owned by Nestle. Absolutely the worst company to work for on the planet, hands down. To this day I refuse to buy anything even remotely related to that company. The turn around rate in that place is insane, they just abuse the living crap out of the employees. All the time they would hire someone and he would quit a few days later.
For example if the guy whose route was next to mine called in sick - which happened all the time because he was sick of the job or quit - I had to do his route as well as mine. I would leave Queens NY around 3am get to Kearny New Jersey around 5am do the route and the other guys route and be finished around 11pm at night, get home around 1am get 2 hours sleep get up at 3am get to work and find out the other guy called in sick again or quit. And if I didn’t work those 2 routes they would threaten to fire me, on a daily basis that’s all you got was “If you don’t like it there’s the front door” and one day I did walk out the front door and never went back.
Just absolutely the worst company I ever worked for in my life. Oh and your question about the elevators: Almost ALL the customers had the same deal - no deliveries using the passenger elevators, the doormen would always force us to use the freight elevators and almost always they were being used because somebody was moving which meant the elevator was being held or someone was making a delivery which again it would be held so they didn’t have to wait. The bottom line was you could end up waiting 15 minutes to eternity for the elevator so the better option was to take the stairs. Sometimes I would climb one flight of stairs and sneak into the passenger elevators but almost always some Clinton supporting fat mouth lib would scream bloody hell that “The help is in the elevator!!” They actually use to call the front desk while standing next to me! So the job was basically walking up and down stairs carrying 240 pounds of water for 18 hours a day. I use to crash the truck all the time from falling asleep, this is the kind of company it was, they just didn’t give a damn if someone was killed.
Our current immigration policies and those changes proposed in the Gang of 8 bill are destroying this country and the American worker. Real wages have been declining for 40 years. We are creating a permanent underclass and eviscerating the middle class.
Read Phyllis Schlafly's How Mass (Legal) Immigration Dooms a Conservative Republican Party and you will understand where Ann Coulter is coming from.
Rubio wasn’t hoodwinked. He hoodwinked us. He’s a fraud and a liar, and turned out to be as sleazy as Charlie “The Orange Menace” Crist.
In the last ten years we’ve destroyed the race card.
Successfully attacked the credibility of the mainstream media.
Helped a majority of people see global warming as ‘debatable, not settled’...
All but eliminated standard ‘gun control myths’...
Turned the term ‘liberal’ into something liberals run away from...
Shared with Israel that NOT all Americans think like New York Times staff members...
Helped European citizens see their massive uncontrolled ‘immigration’ was created by their liberal elites to keep wages down - not to ‘help people’...
The above is a beginning... all done by conservatives with the help of people like Mark Steyn, Jim Robinson, Rush Limbaugh, Daniel Greenfield, John Lott, freepers etc. etc... yeah, it’s rough - but we really are winning...
One more - turned the cultural tide on abortion:
CNN poll: 58% now oppose abortion in most or all cases

We’re winning OddLane... and Ann’s right on this issue.
