		<description><![CDATA[especially to Romney PACS if they want to go this route...that the only two US Presidents to take up immigration reform were George W. Bush and Ronald Reagan, both at a political cost to their base with no political upside while Obama has talked a great game and promised a lot of chicken salad; he has delivered chicken crap and never once had the &quot;stones&quot; to take up the issue even when the Dems controlled both the Senate and House.  I might even run that commercial in Spanish.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is not about amnesty.  We can&#039;t see the forest from the tree again.  This is about Obama not adhering to his oath of office.  Congress makes the laws..PERIOD.  The press is out there spinning the amnesty deal...meanwhile...Obama has once again usurped the Constitution.

Coercing the Catholic Church and other organizations against abortion/contraception is about the First Amendment...not about Women&#039;s Rights.

However, as Kitty has said...as well as Rick Perry...this is a law and order issue but Obama/MSM has spun this in to some compassionate nanny state issue instead of following the laws on the books.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[God help me, I do not want to be banned from this site, however I do not agree with your last sentence.

I will be voting for Romney this November.  My goal is to get as many Conservative House and Senate candidates elected to insure that a Conservative agenda is followed.  That being said...here is where I disagree.

Take for instance the now Senator from WV.  If I didn&#039;t live in the South and know the mindset...I would say...let&#039;s get Manchin to switch parties.  His state and the Senator himself do not agree with Obama.  I find him more Conservative than Olympia Snowe...who is retiring...thank God.

However, look at who voted Kagen into the Supreme Court...why it was Lindsey Graham!  She should not even be sitting on that Court and her involvement in Obamacare is a direct conflict of interest.  Then...Sobieski...we have Senator McCain focusing on boxing being corrupt!  Let me see...we have the fast and furious going on, we have many, many bills held up in the Senate that need to be focused upon, we have the UN trying to dictate the 2nd Amendment, Solyndra (our money) is back in the news, Obama just gave amnesty, Holder won&#039;t obey his duty to office, we have a GIANT oxymoron going on...wherein we cannot ask for ID&#039;s from people of color because of violation of their civil right (I thought they did not have any if here illegally) BUT WE HAVE DRONES FLYING AROUND CHECKING OUT US CITIZENS.  

What is Senator McCain focused on...BOXING!  We are now $16 trillion in debt thus far, Medicare/SS in trouble...and we are worried about BOXING.

I don&#039;t want to burn down the house by any means...I have been a Republican all my life...but we need more than a refurbishment with some of our current representatives.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was wrong.  I originally saw this as an unforced error by Rubio that distracted from what should be the narrative but now it is looking like a brilliant political manuever by the Romney camp (or it couldn&#039;t come out better if they had planned it).  To wit, immigration reform polls decently (the Bloomberg poll today will show Obama &quot;winning&quot; the debate) about to the middle.  However, the polling is not for what I call &quot;intensity&quot; i.e. do you really care and would the outcome affect your vote.  There are only two categories of people really that immigration reform is a game changer (or what I call &quot;burns white hot&quot;).  Generally, this is a portion of the Latin-American community on the left and a subsection of conservatives on the right.  With this action, Obama has managed to tick off both groups.  Seriously, both groups.  One need only read through this thread to see how conservatives are taking being thrwarted in a policy important to them by Presidential fiat without even giving the issue a debate in Congress.  What we have ignored is how it is playing in the part of the Latino community that as I said the issue burns white hot.  The answer is not well; turns out voters do remember when you promise chicken salad and deliver chicken crap.  I don&#039;t think I am going out on too far a limb when saying Ruben Navarette, Jr is a leading voice in the media for the pro-immigration reform part of the Latino community.    &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cnn.com/2012/06/13/opinion/navarrette-deportation-immigrants/index.html&quot;&gt;Surely there is little coincidence, Obama&#039;s fiat came just scant days after Navarette took him down on CNN.com.&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cnn.com/2012/06/15/opinion/navarrette-immigration-obama/index.html?hpt=po_r1&quot;&gt;I encourage everyone to read what Navarrette has to say about Obama&#039;s fiat &quot;broken promise&quot;.&lt;/a&gt;  Seriously, conservatives on redstate and Ruben Naverette are both calling this fiat crap.  If the Romney camp cooked this up, I can only say, well played, sir...well played.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by a century of non-enforcement.  I&#039;m not saying you&#039;re wrong, I&#039;m saying there&#039;s better arguments to deploy.

The better argument is that the border is a &quot;law &amp; order&quot; issue, i.e. there&#039;s lots of illegal substances coming across, and that the border is a national security issue, i.e. if it&#039;s porous enough to let illegals in, it&#039;s porous enough to let other criminal/hostile elements in.  

Close the border, then we can talk about the illegals with certainty.  Until we close the border, we can&#039;t have a serious conversation....

		<description><![CDATA[The Great Lakes, if you don&#039;t stray too far out and the weather&#039;s good, are sufficiently placid ...

I like and respect Rubio.  As long as his immigration plan contains a serious border enforcement piece, it may even work.  Realistically, there will be a mix of amnesty and deportation .. but talking about what the mix should be without border security (and e-Verify) is pointless.

That said, I&#039;m not one of the ones who&#039;s said the veep &quot;must be Rubio&quot;.  He&#039;s a possibility, but I&#039;d rather see him in the Senate and in the FL Gov mansion before the White House.

<p>I like and respect Rubio.  As long as his immigration plan contains a serious border enforcement piece, it may even work.  Realistically, there will be a mix of amnesty and deportation .. but talking about what the mix should be without border security (and e-Verify) is pointless.</p>
<p>That said, I&#8217;m not one of the ones who&#8217;s said the veep &#8220;must be Rubio&#8221;.  He&#8217;s a possibility, but I&#8217;d rather see him in the Senate and in the FL Gov mansion before the White House.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[I think Romney&#039;s plan is to try to prevent the tragedy of people trying to swim Lake Michigan to get into Canada for oil energy jobs since Obama is set on killing those jobs in the US.  I do think when Romney announces the VP pick it will not be the junior Senator from Florida (hopefully soon to be the Senior Senator from Florida after the voters &quot;retire&quot; Bill Nelson).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Probably just as well, the whole &quot;thou shalt not suffer a witch to live&quot; thing.

That said, whether this dumps Rubio off Romney&#039;s short list depends on two factors.

The more obvious of the two is just how far out of step Rubio&#039;s plan is with the Romney campaign stated plan.  As I haven&#039;t bothered to read the Romney campaign plan, I cannot answer this.

The less obvious is whether anyone inside Team Romney actually had Rubio on their short list.  No, Dick Morris doesn&#039;t count.

(the particularly malevolent part of my brain wants to know when Mr. Morris became aware of Rubio&#039;s views ...)

		<description><![CDATA[Is it sufficient reason that Romney will throw him off the VP list...hmmm?  I agree with you cat on the point rounding up millions and millions of illegal citizens is too cost consuming both in transportation and detention cost.  However, offering up guest visas that allow undocumented workers in the legitimate work place (i.e. McDonalds, Wal-Mart, etc) where they were not likely to be hired is going to cause stress in that workplace.  My beliefs as a Christian are that I should dedicate portions of my own time and treasure to helping those less fortunate (blessed) than myself here and around the world.  However, the function of the US government is to protect the welfare and security of US citizens first and foremost.  Allowing another stream of workers in an already depressed job space does not serve that purpose.  I standby earlier statements that this is a steaming pile of poo and an unforced error from Rubio (one that Obama is going to try and seize on).]]></description>
