WILL THE REPUBLICANS CAVE ON AMNESTY???

FUTURE DEMOCRATS, PERHAPS?

Word now comes from ‘Chuckie’ Schumer quite confidently proclaims that Congress will pass a comprehensive immigration reform package, aka amnesty, this summer, and he insisted that Republicans would not be re-elected if they fail to move forward on the issue. Sounding much like the arrogant ASSHOLE that we all know him to be, he was recently heard to say, "I want to let you in on a little secret. We are going to pass that bill and sign it into law this year." He made his declaration at the 12th annual Daily News/ CUNY Citizenship NOW! immigration call-in event in Manhattan

The bipartisan bill to which old ‘Chuckie’ refers, which would create what has been referred to as being a pathway to citizenship for the country's 11 million undocumented immigrants, cleared the Senate last June but has been stalled in the Republican-controlled House ever since. And then old ‘Chuckie’ proceeded to lay it on thick. He said, "The Republican Party knows if it continues to be seen as anti-immigrant, they're going to lose election after election…Their leadership knows it, and they're trying to convince the rank and file." Actually it’s just the opposite that’s true.

‘Chuckie’ was joined at this silly little event by other New York dignitaries to help launch the annual immigrant information service which gives free, confidential citizenship and immigration information through a hotline staffed by lawyers, paralegals, and law students. Supposedly, Daily News Chairman and Publisher Mortimer Zuckerman, and an immigrant from Canada said, "I've had a wonderful experience with this country and there's no [other] country in the world that in a sense welcomes and gives opportunities to immigrants." Maybe this douche should go back to Canada!

As you may, or may not, recall old ‘Chuckie’ was one of the Democrat members of the "Gang of Eight," that bipartisan group of lawmakers who drafted the bill in the Senate last year, and he served as one of the chief negotiators to get the legislation through the chamber. And much to my disappointment my own senator, Marco Rubio was also a member of this little clique, as were RINOs, John McCain, Lindsey Graham and Jeff Flake. And how Rubio could have ever allowed himself to have gotten so tangled up with this crew is beyond me. But because he did, he has forever lost my vote.

I guess I just don’t understand why it is that so many who are supposed to be on my side, appear to be so willing to help out those on the other side. And let me makes this as crystal clear as I possibly can. Should congressional Republicans go along with this cockamamie idea, it’s then that they will then to proceed to lose election after election. Because, for one reason, in creating 11 million ‘new’ Americans they will essentially be creating 11 million ‘new’ Democrats. And for another those of us who firmly oppose amnesty will never again vote for any Republican if they do in fact go forward with this.
