Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Rand Paul for Amnesty - Time for him to go...

Yes, I understand. Nobody wants to think he is a total slimebag, as he is appearing to be.

Pat, i have to wonder if he is playing the establishment. By cowtowing to people like Susan Collins. (And lets face it no way would anyone in his position nut kick his partner Senator.). All the while Ted Cruz is being Ted Cruz and stepping on feet and putting folks in their places, Rand homes himself into the politics and the ways of the establishment in order to get the nomination. I have a hard time believing Paul would back out on his principles.

The dipchit RP really screwed the fat pooch on this little tidbit of enlightenment, damn idiot.

All this Amnesty talk is job security for me lol. they keep coming I keep working
However it really really sucks especially with all the chit we are dealing with now with these juvies.
Democraps and republicans alike have forgotten what amnesty got us in 86/87. Stupid politicians never learn from their mistakes. Reagan, yes that Reagan, the one all the republicans love, screwed the pooch and gave amnesty without first securing the border. now we have this idiot in office that is everyone's best friend but Americans trying to do the same thing and both parties are doing the same thing but they don't pass it because one party tries to out do the other and vise versa. this is a political game that both sides are playing, yet they both mention securing the border but then they forget about that to try and get more votes.
Personally I think we should send em all back all over the world and give incentives to the ones doing it legally. but since that will never happen because both parties are bought and are going to agree to amnesty eventually, I say number one before anything stupid is done is secure the southern border.
Pretty shameful that Rand Paul is talking about amnesty. Last time I was on here which was a few months ago, a lot of people were saying rand for President lol.
Gotta love this place.

I saw a Texas Congressman yesterday on CNN explaining Cantor's loss on the public disaffection with immigration. He said that the US allows 1 million LEGAL immigrants to enter each year -- and that number is greater than legal immigrants permitted by all other nations in the world combined.

In other words, we already have a good and eminently fair immigration policy that should be enforced.

Today, I saw a report that 20 percent of all the population (28 million?) in Central America wants to move to the US. That's over 5 million. Should the US just stand by and let them in? What about all the others in Africa, Asia, Russia, et al. who feel the same way?

The US industrial leaders who lobby for cheap labor do not address the huge cost of social services that unrestricted immigration would require. I guess that they think that is not their problem.

Then there is the brazen calculation by certain politicos who figure that opening the doors will solidify their voting ranks. That seems the most pernicious of all, to me. I see this thinking in so many recent actions in the federal agencies.

I for one will be interested to see the outcome of this year's elections on this issue.
