Levin: Maybe Jeb Realizes Immigration Position ‘Just Not Flying’
breitbart.com ^ | 1/26/15 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 01/27/2015 5:59:14 AM PST by cotton1706

On Monday, talk radio host and author of “The Liberty Amendments,” Mark Levin suggested that Jeb Bush was changing his tone on immigration because he realized his position was “just not flying.”

After playing a clip of Bush saying “we ought to be able to figure out where they [illegal immigrants] are and politely ask them to leave,” Levin initially wondered how politely asking someone to leave would work and what would happen if someone said “no.”

He then remarked, “so, Jeb says we ought to be able to figure out where these people are and politely ask them to leave. First of all, I’ve noticed a slight of course for [Jeb], maybe this pro-amnesty, pro-open borders, anti-American sovereignty position is just not flying that well, nor should it, that’s in the other party.”

They think we’re all stupid and that we forget so easily. One rep’s academic mouthpiece here in Georgia (Loudermilk) said as much. “We’ll forget [about Loudermilk’s Boehner vote0 by 2016 because we’re stupid.”

Even if they’re pivoting, their lying. Jeb has been pro-amnesty for far too long to just up and change his tune now.

Hes lying. Jeb just isn’t gonna make it tho. He’s as bad as Hillary with the stupid things that come out of his mouth. For instance, he went around bragging about winning the presidency without winning the primaries. Isn’t that like saying to the voters “screw you! The GOPE doesn’t care who you liked and what policies you liked. Jeb is gonna be prez, got it!?”

You can talk that wat to RAT voters and they’ll wave their signs in the air and clap and scream and cry tears of joy. But most Republicans use their brains.

Oh, you’re absolutely right. But it’s comical to watch these people ever so slowly turn to try to fool the people.

We’re all watching them very closely now, and they don’t like it. They’re used to people nodding to all their ridiculous views.

If there isn’t a Cruz on my ballots (primary/general) here in Georgia I am not going to even going to go vote. There aren’t any other reps/Senators here I would vote for. They are not worth the trip.

This KSU professor actually said it about “forgetting by 2016”. I added the “stupid” part because the rest of his blather was about how we conservatives don’t understand all the underlying complications, ramifications, strategy, plans, optics, triangulation and implications - IOW we’re stupid.

Oh we understand all the “underlying “ stuff all right, that’s why we want the establishment GONE in 2016!

Looks like Ted has taken it to the next level. Im very hopeful.

He changed his position from illegal alien cheerleader to court jester.

Not seeing the improvement.

“Pivot” my eye. They’re lying fakes. Not to be trusted.

Maybe some repubs have finally stopped being led around by their noses ..?? It’s interesting to see how many are beginning to drop the GOPe stances on a lot of things.

The only problem with that is: When they get in office, they just revert back to their old ways.

We need to be careful we do not celebrate the GOPe’s conversion to conservative too soon.

We have proven leaders in the conservative movement and I for one am willing to stick with them .. because what they have PROVEN they believe .. is what I believe.

America is in a very bad place. It’s going to take a very strong and unflappable President to lead us back to where we should be as a nation. The media are no longer the watchdogs they were designed to be.

Getting America back will be hard work .. and I don’t believe there is a RINO among us who is up to the job.

So, whether Jeb changes his pattern of talking about immigration, or Huckabee changes his ideas about Common Core .. they are new to those ideas .. and I doubt they will stick with them, if they should get elected.

There’s one more thing about Jeb I’m basing my concern on .. how he reacted and treated the death of a woman who was most probably choked by her husband and left as dead .. but she wasn’t dead .. and her family loved her and wanted to take care of her .. and Jeb Bush DID NOTHING .. he refused to interfere. I’ve never gotten over that.

As for Trump; he has blatantly lied about the applause at the Summit. I recorded the meetings, and I can tell you Ted Cruz blew everybody else away with his 3 standing ovations, which C-SPAN hid by turning down the volume .. except for Ted’s mic. If Trump continues his attacks upon Cruz .. Trump will never make it to the end of his campaign.

I would love to have others comment on how they’re seeing the people running for office. We need to be discussing it because sometimes some see things about people that we don’t see .. and we need to see.

Jeb changing his position is like flipping to page two in the Kama Sutra: we're still getting &%&*/&% by his "act of love", just with a slightly different position.

I have never seen such an aggregation of Republican beasts.

The only one any good is Cruz, and the rest couldn’t get arrested with the murder weapon in their hand.

Amnesty is the third rail of the republican party. Anyone who runs supporting it gets zapped. Ask Rubio.

Jeb if he runs, won’t win, and if he gets the nomination will see low GOP turnout, he won’t get my vote, I don’t vote for amnesty bots.

Cruz or lose
