2013-06-15
Didja enjoy that brief flirtation with the Presidency Mr. Rubio. You may wish to bottle what you have left, 'cuz it ain't comin' back.....

#6  I agree, Rubio has shown himself to be a candidate I can't follow. We agree on some big issues and on those I'd welcome his support, but we disagree on a pretty major one here. He just doesn't get the way the bulk of Americans feel on the matter and I hope it costs him when the time comes.

If Rubio wants to champion immigrants he should try to fix the system for guest workers and LEGAL immigrants (and promote Americanization instead of balkanization). Leave the illegal immigrant issue alone because they are ILLEGAL, they broke the law and there is nothing you can do to get most Americans to accept that somehow making them legal is a good thing.

#5  WeÂ’re going to end up borrowing money like we do now for 40 cents out of every dollar, and I want to prevent that from happening.

Congratulations Sen. Rubio. Your false choice question officially grants you passage into the GOP establishment. (Aka; the Dark side). We eagerly await the time when you wax nostalgic about your family history as you conflate legal immigration with illegal aliens.

#1  RUBIO's comments is actually more sensible than the following ...

* MABUHAY NEWS > US CONGRESS HAS NOT PASSED IMMIGRATION REFORM OR "AMNESTY".

IIUC, the status of Criminal Illegals doesn't change, nor are they deported.

Never mind the Political-Media Correctness + hoopla - all thats really been accomplished is MORE, NEWER Regs-n-Bureacracy???

KINDLER, NEWER DEBT + DEFICIT LEVELS???
