“Cruz never wanted the Gang of 8 bill to pass”

Au contraire mon frere. There’s a thread posted today with a letter signed by him and others that specifically states they want the bill to pass.

NO. That was after the poison pill he added into it and was a ruse against the pro-amnesty folks. . You are essentially lying or very misinformed when you say that.

No...it doesn’t say they want the bill to pass... They want immigration reform to pass..

Better read that again..

From that letter:
Moreover, the bill’s already serious flaws were exacerbated by the adoption of several amendments that significantly weaken current law, hamstring law enforcement, and further complicate our legal immigration system. We were thus left with no choice but to oppose the bill. Below are just a few reasons we were compelled to do so.

-snip-

We want immigration reform to pass, but only if it actually fixes the broken system, rather than allowing the problems to grow and fester.

that meant
1. The bill is flawed and they are voting against it.
2. They want immigration reform to pass, but only if it fixes the problems... JUST NOT WITH THIS FLAWED BILL.
