Bipartisan Senate group to meet with Obama Tuesday about immigration
“The president of the United States has supported our efforts. In fact we will be meeting with the president on Tuesday,” McCain said during a visit to Mexico.
He did not say how many senators would attend the meeting.
McCain told reporters after meeting with Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto that many details must be worked out between Obama and senators trying to produce legislation.
Asked about the prospects for reaching a deal, he said: “I am guardedly optimistic that we could by the end of the next month. There’s still a number of agreements that need to be made before I can assure you that we will have a resolution.”

Beginning of the end of immigration reform?

So when this immigration deal goes down, how the hell do people who call themselves “conservative” still…
1. Support the government?
2. Support the military?
3. Support the capitalist ideology that gave this abomination justification(while socializing the costs)?

When this immigration deal goes down, how will that affect your view of the government…
Will Conservatism Incorporated just keep marching on with the same tired slogans(less government, low taxes), the same tired idols(Zombie Reagan), the same tired concerns(ooohhh Iran… Putin).

Boy, that’s a relief. We know McCain can play hardball with Obama when push comes to shove. He sure made mincemeat out of him during his presidential bid.
I’ll take RINO jellyfish for $500 Alex.

The whole purpose of this so-called immigration reform is to create a moral basis for one group of Americans to go after another group of Americans and confiscate their wealth.
The tea partiers, the Gone Galt people, and the preppers are being set up for wealth confiscation according to status. After the few illegals who want to register to pay taxes have done so, everybody who failed to register will be deemed a tax evader and/or a tax refuser. Thus they will be criminals which gives the government the legal authority to confiscate their wealth according to existing law.
You have been warned. The real war is being set up as I type, and most people seem oblivious.

Who needs international treaties on climate change, criminal courts and the law of the sea when the Congress will give away American sovreignty, and allow foreigners to write our laws for us?

McCain visiting Mexico to make sure Pena Nieto understands he is doing everything possible to help the Mexican people.
