On the "Cantor Calamity" and immigration

More Cantor fallout: What happens to Obama’s executive order on deportations now?  ... "He’s done next to nothing for liberal amnesty fans since then. If he runs away in terror at the sight of Cantor getting blown out of the water, some of them might boycott the midterms, and suddenly the GOP’s looking at an even bigger night than everyone expects. He’s got to act.

"So, when? When is the least damaging moment politically for Obama to make this now inevitable move? My best guess is that he’s going to stick to the original timeline of doing it during the August recess. " ...

Comprehensive Defeat 

 

"A lot of Republicans, disproportionately those in Washington, D.C., harbor the fantasy that the party could make great gains among Hispanic voters if it would only offer legal status to millions of illegal immigrants, create large guest-worker programs, and refrain from insisting that enforcement of the existing laws be shown to work before taking these steps. Cantor refused to shut the door on this approach, so primary voters shut the door on him."

 

Brat’s Victory Means Re-evaluation Time for the GOP   " Former Florida governor Jeb Bush, who embraces a more welcoming immigration policy than does much of the Republican nominating electorate, may construe Cantor’s defeat as a discouraging augury concerning any presidential aspirations Bush might have."

Did Democratic Meddling Defeat Eric Cantor?   "Dave Brat's stunning victory over House majority leader Eric Cantor is being hailed as a huge win for the Tea Party and immigration hawks, but might Brat actually owe his victory to Democrats, who were eligible to vote in Tuesday's open primary? That's a question Republican strategist Patrick Ruffini raised late last night on Twitter, where he pointed out that Brat performed very well in districts where Obama did best in 2012:: ...  In other words, was Brat the Democrat's choice?

‘Amnesty’ Has Claimed a Victim   ... "To critics of immigration reform, the defeat of Cantor reflects a growing wave of opposition to congressional action on immigration, particularly anything resembling the Senate-passed measure that offers a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants here.

 

"But if a wave exists, there was no evidence of it in the Republican primary in South Carolina won by Senator Lindsey Graham, a co-sponsor of the Senate bill and an outspoken advocate of letting illegals stay in the U.S.  Graham got four or five times as many votes as Brat."

HOW TO SOLVE THAT "HUMANITARIAN CRISIS" - HUNDREDS, PERHAPS THOUSANDS OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT KIDS BEING DUMPED BY THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION IN ARIZONA AND OTHER STATES

"THIS CURRENT CRISIS IS COMPLETELY MANUFACTURED BY OBAMA AND HIS COMRADES - BY OPENING THE BORDERS AND REFUSING TO PROSECUTE ILLEGALS WHICH SENT THE SIGNAL TO PEOPLE WANTING TO COME HERE ILLEGALY(sp) THAT NOW WAS THE TIME."

"IT IS CLASSIC CLOWARD-PIVEN - (FROM WIKI):

The Cloward–Piven strategy is a political strategy outlined in 1966 by American sociologists and political activists Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven that called for overloading the U.S. public welfare system in order to precipitate a crisis that would lead to a replacement of the welfare system with a national system of "a guaranteed annual income and thus an end to poverty".

 

 "IN THIS CASE, OBAMA AND HIS COMRADES ARE HOPING TO MAKE THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT CRISIS SO BAD THAT - 

(AFTER THE LEFTIST DOMINATED MASS MEDIA PUSHES THE "HUMANITARIAN CRISIS" ASPECT OF THE MESS) - 

CONGRESS WILL HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO PASS AMNESTY.

IF YOU THINK THINGS ARE BAD NOW, WAIT TILL THEY START TO DEBATE A BILL IN CONGRESS; 

WHAT LOOKS LIKE A FLOOD NOW WILL BECOME A TSUNAMI!

THERE'S ONE WAY TO STOP THIS:

VOTE GOP IN NOVEMBER! 
DAVE BRAT GOP THAT IS! WOW!"

 

Emphases in the original

Ann Couter: Cantor Loses By 11 Million Voters  ..."Cantor spent more than $5 million on his campaign. Brat spent less than $150,000. But Brat made the election about Cantor's support for amnesty, so he won.

"The pro-amnesty crowd -- i.e., everyone except the American people -- promptly lost its collective mind. The amnesty shills went on the attack, insisting that Cantor's historic defeat had nothing to do amnesty. Brat's triumph was touted as simply a victory for the "tea party.

The incomprehensible booty for a military deserter

Pakistan Daily Times   "Here is the real question. Who benefits from this deal? The United States military does not benefit. This eviscerates morale within the ranks. There are no yellow ribbons tied around the old oak tree, no veterans clamouring to line up and shake Bergdahl’s hand."...

 ... "Americans no longer trust Washington’s elite ‘Liar’s Club’. The Beltway jesters consistently deliver unbelievable whoppers. Captured on the ‘battlefield’? Bergdahl was not captured due to superior Afghan firepower and ground support. He was not taken by the enemy after firing the last bullet, throwing a grenade, or slicing the liver out of the enemy with his K-bar." ... 

 

... "President Obama ran on a platform of transparency in government but the drawbridge went up the day he walked into the White House. He has consistently worked to actively deny Americans basic truths regarding his ill-clad foreign policy endeavours." ...

FOX News Most Trusted, MSNBC Least Trusted, Media Matters Hardest Hit

American Glob   "A study by the Brookings Institute asked the following question…

“Which of the following television news sources do you trust the most to provide accurate information about politics and current events?”

 
"Ed Morrissey of Hot Air has more details…

The most-trusted name in news for all Americans is, unsurprisingly, Fox News, which also has the highest ratings by far in the industry. Broadcast news — the three networks — come in a close second, with CNN a more distant third place. However, the “honor” of being the least-trusted name in news, in practically every demographic, is MSNBC, a subsidiary of NBC News — which ranks below Jon Stewart among all but Democrats.

"None of this is very surprising. FOX News is the only news network, cable or otherwise, which is willing to ask difficult questions of the Obama administration which is exactly why it drives liberals crazy.
"MSNBC is not so much a news network as it is a home for insane progressives who insult conservatives in vicious ways, then apologize, get fired and are quickly replaced by people just like them.
"Media Matters, which claims to be an impartial media watchdog and operates as a tax free non-profit organization, constantly attacks FOX News while completely ignoring MSNBC.
"Then again, it looks like everyone else is ignoring MSNBC too."

Left pivots from ‘Tea Party is dead’ to ‘Tea Party hates Jews’ after Cantor loses

First this: House Majority Leader Cantor defeated in primary   "In an upset for the ages, Majority Leader Eric Cantor of Virginia, the second-most powerful man in the House, was dethroned Tuesday by a little-known, tea party-backed Republican primary challenger carried to victory on a wave of public anger over calls for looser immigration laws." ...

The entire Left is a real piece of work.

White House: Immigration Didn’t Sink Cantor    "Cantor’s campaign sent out direct mail pieces ahead of the election maintaining that he was ”stopping the Obama-Reid plan to give illegal aliens amnesty,” but challenger Dave Brat accused him of supporting “amnesty” based on his support for legislation such as the KIDS Act, which would give citizenship to children brought to the country illegally."

ABC News’s Diane Sawyer destroys Hillary Rodham Clinton on Benghazi

WaPo   ... "In an interview with Clinton that aired last night on ABC News, anchor Diane Sawyer threw the ARB right back in the face of the former secretary of state. The two tangled over the preparedness of the U.S. diplomatic installation in Benghazi for a terrorist attack. In defending her work on this front, Clinton stressed that she had delegated the particulars of security to the experts in the field. “I’m not equipped to sit and look at blueprints to determine where the blast walls need to be, where the reinforcements need to be. That’s why we hire people who have that expertise,” said Clinton, who did the interview as part of the tour for her book “Hard Choices.”

"Sensing an opening, Sawyer cited the document that Clinton herself has so often cited:" ... More

Victor Davis Hanson: Fictions as Truth

Works and Days

 

This president would like us to believe him on these and more topics:

 

"For the Obama administration narrative to be accurate about the swap of five Taliban/al-Qaeda-related kingpins for Sgt. Bergdahl, we are asked to believe the following:"

...

"For Benghazi, the Obama administration would have us believe..."

...

"For the IRS scandal, the Obama administration would have us believe..."

...

"For the Obamacare scandal, we are asked to believe..."

...

"For the VA mess, the Obama administration would have us believe..."

...

"On illegal immigration scandals, the president would have us believe..."

...

 

"I could go on with the NSA, AP, and Fast and Furious scandals, but you get the picture: the Obama administration does what it wishes, then says what it pleases, and assumes the media will offer the necessary mythologizing — and the Americans will get over it."

Obama Thinks He Has It Rough Now?

What an Obama presidency would look like if the GOP takes control of Congress in November.

PJ Media    ... "Operating amid a cocoon of aides who refuse to challenge him, or offer critical feedback (Valerie Jarrett would have their heads if they did, since this would reflect disloyalty), the president moves from failure to fiasco routinely.  We are, after all, speaking of  a man who told an exultant audience in Berlin before he even became the nominee of his party in 2008, and then again on victory night in Grant Park in Chicago in November 2008, that the moment of his victory and ascendance to office would be marked as one where the planet started healing, the oceans stopped rising, and all the other problems in the world  would just begin to melt away."...
...
"Legacy building will drive the White House to agree to any nuclear deal with Iran it can get, and hope that the Iranians repay the favor of additional sanctions relief by not showing their contempt for America — delaying the final step of their accession to the nuclear club until Obama leaves office. That will mean Obama’s successor will have to answer the “who lost China” question about Iran getting the bomb."

Legal Insurrection
"From the South Dakota College Republicans:
"It’s not us, it’s you.
"That’s our message to President Obama with our new music video, “Say Something, Obama: The Music Video.' ”
 

 

... "In fact, most young people who cast their presidential vote for Barack Obama had no idea what or who they were voting for. It was a passing image that caught their eye, and suddenly they were in love.
