ZitatSenate Budget Committee ranking member Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) told Boston’s conservative radio host Howie Carr on Wednesday that the political momentum is starting to turn against the “Gang of Eight” immigration bill.
When Carr asked the senator if this process behind the push for this bill is the “same thing as Obamacare” where “we have to pass it so we can read it,” Sessions replied: “Absolutely, it really is.”
ZitatWhen Carr asked if Gang of Eight supporters had the votes to pass the bill in the House or Senate, Sessions said that they are claiming they have it in the Senate. “But I think the tide is beginning to turn,” Sessions said. “A lot of people, like myself, I thought the bill was better than it is based on what I hear the proponents say. But as we examine it, we realize that this is going to be a disaster. It’s going to be a disaster for enforcement, it’s going to be a disaster for our budget, it’s going to be a disaster for the wages of American workers, it’s going to add to our financial deficit, Social Security and Medicare are going to be impacted over the long term by trillions of dollars in unfunded liabilities and these numbers are not going to be disputed if we go forward.”
Zitat“Any smart nation would say ‘we want immigrants, but if you’re not able to take care of yourself, if you’re going to come in and be dependent on welfare, you don’t get admitted,’” Sessions added.
While this is good news, I'm still not holding my breath. What's even more disturbing is yet another bill where we have to "pass it to find out whats in it"???? What's up with that?!?
Personally I think we need a bill that sends a congress critter straight to Leavenworth for not reading any bill they vote for first!
America's hope is not the donkey or the elephant, but the Lamb.

Hurray for the Republicans!
And hurray for Cedric!
This bill isn't falling apart from anything the establishment dopes you idolize are doing. Rubio was still making the round on talk radio pimping this turd. The thing is falling apart because constituents are pushing back hard and there is a midterm on the horizon. Hell, we just found out this week that McConnell wanted Rubio on this gang of stupid to give it more legitimacy. The GOP DC hacks want this bill as bad as the Rats do.

Someone actually has a brain ??
I don't believe it !!
Believe it!
Sessions is not alone; there are others.
And they're all Republicans!
Unfortunately, for that very reason it's hard to find any mention of, let alone, credit given them around here.
