GOP platform fight over shamnesty euphemisms

By Michelle Malkin  •  August 26, 2008 08:15 PM

The good news: There are Republicans battling proactively to stamp out open-borders euphemisms like “comprehensive immigration reform.”

The bad news: There are Republicans battling defensively to keep open-borders euphemisms for shamnesty in the GOP vocabulary. And they’re on the side of Hispandering John McCain. And they won.

FNC has the scoop.

Juan Hernandez approves!

    Beaverton,Oregon is plagued by illegals. I absolutely will not back any candidate or party that will try to grant them Comprehensive Immigration Reform amnesty.

    i suggest you work really hard to elect a truly conservative congress. that helps wc and jd.

    Been doing that for ALL CONSERVATIVES for years and I’ll continue to do so, cheapseat. It doesn’t matter what office they’re running for or their party affiliation, If they’re conservative they’ll get my support and vote. That’s right folks I’ve actually supported ~gasp~ democrats, conservative democrats. (local government)

    For the past twenty or so years I’ve supported the LOTE’S (republicans on the national level) thinking I was doing the right thing and you know what I’ve gotten in return?

    Gigantic government that hasn’t seen a problem that can’t be solved with a borrowed nickel.

    Budget deficits as far as the eye can see

    Open borders

    Campaign finance reform

    Amnesty for illegal aliens

    I don’t support any of that and I’ll never again support a candidate that does. If some conservatives stay home(don’t recommend that) or vote 3rd party on election day and McCain gets his arse handed to him by obambi it’s his own fault.

    I left this email on the McCain for Pres website and then after posting it here on another thread I turned around and went to the GOP Platform webiste and added it there:

    You know, it’s interesting….with all the knowledge of Obama’s elitism and McCain’s continued pushing of amnesty and no drilling in ANWR or the OCS I really believe that this election will show the absolute lowest turnout in political history! Do you think that the GOP can possibly get any lower then they currently are? The GOP platform looks so much like the DNC platform that nobody can tell the difference in the two parties anymore. Is it worth the trouble to begin a party with an actual spine? The DNC doesn’t have one and neither does the GOP. How about actually showing a real difference to America in order to convince them to vote for McCain? I’ve voted a straight GOP ticket since I was able to vote before the end of the Vietnam war. I don’t think I can do that any more if the GOP won’t grow some testes and prove that they really care about this country. Are you willing to do that or are you just whacking off?

    mccain can hope for amnesty all he wants, but if conservatives control either house in congress, he will have to pound sand.
