Wait, what?

Via WaPo:

Former Florida governor Jeb Bush (R) argued Wednesday that the United States should pass immigration reform because the U.S. economy needs the labor of young immigrants, and immigrants are “more fertile.”

“Immigrants create far more businesses than native-born Americans,” Bush said at the Faith and Freedom Coalition’s Road to the Majority conference. “Immigrants are more fertile, and they love families, and they have more intact families, and they bring a younger population. Immigrants create an engine of economic prosperity.”

Bush said immigrants are an advantage that the United States has over China, Europe and Japan, which don’t have the same immigrant tradition and are struggling to find young laborers.

“If we don’t do it, we will be in decline, because the productivity of this country is dependent upon young people that are equipped to be able to work hard,” Bush said.

Bush, whose wife is a Mexican-born immigrant, has long been an advocate for comprehensive immigration reform.

Karl Rove and his lapdog flunkies and Rubio who wants to be adopted into the Bush clan are listening

You know the bigger point that's being overlooked about Bush's comment is this:

Bush is eGOP. He just made the most ridiculous, insane, anti-American statement I've ever heard (and that's saying something in this climate!)

This should should put to rest the ridiculous notion that the eGOP cares about this country, or the American people for that matter, or that they are 'less evil' than the Dems. They are statists and they will support anything that advances statism including illegal immigration.

Of course they want the fertile illegal immigrants -- they want the voting base it panders to -- and to devil with the Constitution, to devil with the rights of American citizens or anything else that stands in their way!!

Well I say screw you to all those who would defend and protect the GOPe after this loony statement!
