Taqiyya Taco Express

[MinuteGal]

This co-founder guy has co-opted the "Tea Party" name for his own agenda....and he'll besmirch the name.

Watch for more of this as opportunists, leftists and Dem undercover activists will co-opt and infiltrate and "use" the Tea Party name for their own purposes.

They've taken over and control just about everything else in this country. The "Tea Party" name is a nice piece of ripe fruit dangling in front of the leftists' eyes. Watch them start plucking it in every way possible this summer just to confuse and demoralize Tea Party supporters across the country.

We have to remain vigilant, especially on conservative forums.

Amnesty sucks....does anyone actually believe there is a chance in Hell of them being deported?

If so, please explain how you believe it will/could actually happen.

If not, what would be a workable solution that might actually (in reality vs. one's dreams) be implemented?

...but not unbridled amnesty,” Russo wrote. “This should include penalties, background checks to root out criminals, and the requirement that they learn English, understand the Constitution and be committed to our basic freedoms.”

In a sane world. A common sense world would start with closing the borders, shutting off the welfare spigot and penalizing employers who hire the illegal invaders. But ANY immigration bill will be stripped in conference and be stuffed with blanket amnesty.

Immigration Overhaul = Enforce it

[mosesdapoet]

This whole idea devalues citizenship in the United States and is driven by a bunch of what the late Col Robert McCormick of the Chicago Tribune would call “One Worlders”. There is never any mention of an American citizens rights in foreign countries particularly Mexico.

This regime can’t even protect its ambassadors never mind sticking up for Americans operating in foreign countries by applying the same restrictions to foreigners from those countries put on Americans. With what’s known as reciprocity to foreigners from those countries who are operating here worse yet illegally.

[Chuckster]

The US DOES need immigration reform. Unfortunately, "Reform" now means "Amnesty" to most people on both sides.

[Nifster]

Nicely played

[Syncro]

This article with it’s added (Teams w/ Grover Norquist) is an attempt to smear Sal Russo, the Tea Party Express and the Tea Party Movement in general.

Exactly what this thread wants you to think.

The "Tea Party" name is a nice piece of ripe fruit dangling in front of the leftists' eyes. Watch them start plucking it in every way possible this summer just to confuse and demoralize Tea Party supporters across the country.

This article and thread are serving that purpose.

Rand Paul's immigration speech

...The Republican Party must embrace more legal immigration.

Unfortunately, like many of the major debates in Washington, immigration has become a stalemate-where both sides are imprisoned by their own rhetoric or attachment to sacred cows that prevent the possibility of a balanced solution.

Immigration Reform will not occur until Conservative Republicans, like myself, become part of the solution. I am here today to begin that conversation.

Let's start that conversation by acknowledging we aren't going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants.

If you wish to work, if you wish to live and work in America, then we will find a place for you...

This is where prudence, compassion and thrift all point us toward the same goal: bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society.

Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors.

Rand Paul calls on conservatives to embrace immigration reform

Latinos, should be a natural constituency for the party, Paul argued, but "Republicans have pushed them away with harsh rhetoric over immigration." ...he would create a bipartisan panel to determine how many visas should be granted for workers already in the United States and those who might follow... [and the buried lead] "Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers...

[but he's not in favor of amnesty, snicker, definition of is is]

[SunkenCiv]

Thanks kristinn.

[rockinqsranch]

Appears Russo fell for Leftist sources tricks, and has now soiled the credibility of the TEA Party movement by announcing what they advocate.

Reform is BS. We have laws that work if enforced.

[GeronL]

This guy should be left on the side of the road to the next rally

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

After this 11 million become Democrat Party supporters and voters, what will we do with the next 11 million?

Interestingly, many of the next wave might be anti-communists fleeing from communist governments in Nicaragua, El Salvador, Ecuador, Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and of course, Venezuela.

Don’t think that Obama and Holder will let this group in.

“As Mr. Wilson speaks, Mr. Bush is headlining a fund-raiser for Mr. Simon just down the street — to which Mr. Wilson wasn’t invited. “We have to turn the page,” says Simon campaign strategist Sal Russo.”

Russo ignored immigration in 2002 Gov race.
