Ayatollah and Wettibe, yes you are right that there is a lot to comment on right now. I don't know why I got all caught up in that nothing blog that I posted about.
I guess I'm getting all caught up in how Benedict Rubio is willing to sell the country, and "Conservatives" are willing to follow because Rubio is the salesman of the amnesty.
Honestly it's so frustrating to see Republicans following Rubio, like he is some sort of saint. I liked him a lot in 2010, but now we're seeing his true self and finding out that he is just as awful as George Bush.
I'm always being reminded how Americans get caught up in certain personalities and ignore the facts of what that person or politician does.
Example: Rubio is currently peddling the same amnesty that Bush and McCain and Kennedy tried to pass in 2006-2007 with just a slightly lengthier time before they can vote Democrat, and the people on that blog were willing to go along with Rubio, just because Rubio had been branded as some sort of "true" conservative.
It's such an eye opener to see so many Republicans so eager to wave the white flag of surrender, just because their naive, don't want their "Saint Rubio", desainted. Or maybe they are just tired of the fight.
Right now we've got Rubio, Sean Hannity, Peggy Noonan, Paul Ryan, and John Boehner all coming out in favor of amnesty. To hell with them all, but it's still a shocker to many to see such an about face and with such little to gain.
I know many here will say; "we told you so", but we're the educated minority in regards to immigration and amnesty. We've seen the up's and downs in this battle and know who is not really on our side.
It's going to be a real upset for many Republicans when we have to desaint their saint Rubio, and they realize that he's really a Benedict Rubio.
