  • National Review not down with immigration reform proposals

    Rush Limbaugh has NOT “sided with” Marco Rubio, as he made quite clear in today’s broadcast. As POLITICO stated (which seems to be your source): “Limbaugh repeatedly commended Rubio, saying that he hopes he succeeds in selling conservative ideals to the public.” All true. I listened to that interview, and it was impossible not to be impressed with Rubio’s passion, eloquence and ease of conveying conservative principles. It’s been so long since we had a politician of any stature who so persuasively and with such conviction put forth the conservative message (since Reagan, maybe?) that it’s no wonder Rush finds Rubio as appealing as many others do, including me. But that does NOT mean he SIDED WITH him. He was supporting his general message but not necessarily his particular stance on this issue.
    And as much as I like Marco — he’s my senator and I campaigned for him — I fear he’s blinded by his own family’s immigrant experience. I lived 30 years in Miami, just recently moving a few counties north. I lived, worked and played with Cubans and other Latinos every day. While it’s simplistic to portray any group broadly, Mexicans and most other Latin constituencies are NOT Cubans, as Marco’s family is and who historically have leaned to the American political right. NR is right when it says GOP “immigration reformers with an eye to political reality should begin by appreciating that Latinos are a Democratic constituency.” The GOP is committing political suicid
