It has been said a thousand times DHE, but let me say it once again. We do not need a compromise. All we need is to enforce the laws that are already on the books. They are illegal. Send them home.

The answer is a four letter word; LAZY! Whomever you were debating was unwilling to work hard enough to earn the rewards he desired, preferring instead to demand government take them from those who had and give them to him. His stupidity complimented his laziness. He obviously could not see that those who produced the rewards he wanted would cease doing so if government would take them away.

Matt... You make excellent points. Every American should copy and paste your comments in letters to their Representative and Senators in Washington and demand a response.

They don't all own a lawn mower where you live?

Senator Rubio, your attempt to shift the focus away from your amnesty bill to the debt is so shallow it couldn't float a toothpick. It's an old political trick that is not going to work and shows early signs of RINOtism.

May I remind you Senator Rubio that you are a member of a branch of the US Government and not a board member of some giant charity? If you want to give away other people’s money to benefit those who have acted illegally that’s fine, as long as the money has been willingly donated for that purpose. I am referring; of course, to the huge costs that will befall the American taxpayer should your amnesty bill become law to provide welfare, education, and other entitlements to those who have entered our country illegally. If charity is your calling, good luck, but please pursue your interests somewhere else. A Senator’s responsibility is to look after the best interest of this county and its citizens. Your amnesty bill does not even come close.

Yes, and "comprehensive" can be added to the list. Can anyone define the meaning of comprehensive immigration reform?

Maxine claimed the sequester would cost America 170 million jobs when in fact the total number of employed in the U.S. is only about 140 million. She sounds like just the genius we need to run finance.

I hope all of the parents in this girl's school district begin a campaign to replace any and all members of the school board who concur with the school's decision to expel her and who refuse to fire the principle. This kind of idiocy will not stop until parents make it clear that it will not be tolerated.

You ask a legitimate question TX. The answer can be found in the old saying “follow the money.” What is reported as news isn’t necessarily what is important. The test is what is sensational. You can blame the press, but they are only providing what the customer is willing to buy.
