Did you not read Ann's final comment? That it is not just bad for America; it is the end of America? And this is no exaggeration. If you just consider the number of amnestied illegals and chain migration, (and some the illegals' family members now in Mexico or are already deported will qualify for immediate legalization), you can't come to any other conclusion. And then the old "we can't deport them" nonsense. Where have you been? living in a cave? Every time this sorry excuse is trotted out gobs of reasonable people point out that NO ONE is suggesting this: Just enforce current law; and add E-Verify, mandatory and national. With no jobs they will go home.

Oh, James, you are so naive.

He is not shooting straight. He has advocated for illegals since his early days in Florida. DREAM Acts, and later worse. Amnesty is his middle name. After all, he was and maybe still is, "joined at the hip" with Jeb Bush. Protege and mentor. Need I say more?

"Marco Rubio in the opinion of all pro-enforcement immigration activists would be another pro-AMNESTY Senator in the footsteps of the unpopular Rove-Bush-endorsed Senator Mel Martinez. Marco Rubio favors his personal cultural preferences over the rule of law. If he were elected Senator Marco Rubio would no doubt continue to promote open borders, AMNESTY and non-enforcement which are clearly detrimental to Floridians." Pretty prophetic, no?

Rubio's not a fool; and amnesty is his middle name. Here is part of the last paragraph of a talk David Caulkett, VP of FLIMEN (Floridians for Immigration Control) gave to local Republican Clubs during the Senate campaign: (continued below)

Rubio wants it too, and Flake. None of them are innocent.

Actually, if you really consider the entire subject matter from a distance, solving the problem should be solving it for the American people and not for the illegals. The problem is that they are HERE and causing harm to our cItizens. So, all that is needed is E-Verify, mandatory and national, and nothing else. That should get rid of many of them and cut the problem down to a much more manageable size. Even then, I just don't see rewarding this illegal behavior. We've done it before; it doesn't work; it attracts more of them and is a lose-lose proposition This monstrous bill makes illegals privileged characters who get to break our laws, be rewarded for it, and we get to pay for the rewards.

He is not naive. As a matter of fact, I just got finished writing a history of Marco's legislative activity for a letter my husband wants to send to Limbaugh, who seems to still love Marco but despise the (his) Plan, and "evil" is the word I use to describe RUBIO.

Everybody had better start to make their Representatives in the House understand how badly this country will suffer if this amnesty is passed. The Senate is gone. The House is our only hope. I believe it's possible to stop it. Not by any means easy, but worth a strong effort. Get active! The alternative is this: Considering the numbers of illegals that will be amnestied and chain migration, the demographics of the U.S. will change overnigt, and will result in the loss of our culture, our language and our rule of law. What's left?

That is exactly right. This bill, and all the talk of "comprehensive reform" is fixing the wrong "problem". The problem is that the illegals are here and are harming our country and its citizens, and it is due to the law not having been enforced. The "fix" they are talking about is "fixing" it for the illegals by giving them more goodies for having broken our laws, which will only invite more of them to come in. How is that fixing the problem?

If you think Rubio WANTS to change the bill, you're naive. He has wanted amnesty all along. This is his brainchild. He wasn't dragged into anything. His Florida legislative record is littered with pro-illegal alien advocacy. Too bad people don't research candidates before "falling in love" with them.
