Joe Barton’s Profoundly Dumb Amnesty Proposal
Texas Rep. Joe Barton must have been reading the new polling data this week that shows Republicans are headed for victory in November.  Like any good establishment Republican, Barton could not let our prospective victory go unanswered and is seeking a way to stifle Republican turnout.  What better way to accomplish “victory” than by introducing comprehensive amnesty legislation? . . . please click here for the rest of the post
