McNulty may disappoint you yet.
The voters who elect Republicans still expect Republicans to be Republicans. You, and McNulty, would do well to remember this, even though it is evidently not possible for you to ever see things from a different point of view.
that targets society’s poorest and has no chance of passing. I guess that’s what it means when “[t]he voters who elect Republicans still expect Republicans to be Republicans.”
Glad we could agree on something.
Immigration is a FEDERAL issue, not a state one.
Republican’ts can pass all the tough-sounding bills they want, so they can include tough-sounding rhetoric in their fundraising emails and talk radio appearances.
In the end, when Federal courts overturn the legislation, and the bill for doing this dumb shit comes do, how will Republican’ts pay for it?

Do they feel that one pariah state isn’t enough? Perhaps they feel bad that poor Arizona is getting all the attention and they want a piece of it? Maybe they are thinking “institutional racism” is too hard to say and “Colorado” is easier? Or they feel sorry for Democrats so they’re giving them the entire Hispanic voting bloc?
I wonder if Colorado Republicans plan to continue following in the footsteps of Arizona’s treasonous, racist, blowhard Russel Pearce and will introduce our very own nullification bill. (AZ SB1433) Or they can follow Arizona’s lead and introduce about a dozen other bills that challenge the federal government on various other issues and laws; as if Arizona were a separate country in negotiations and not subject to the central government under the Supremacy Clause.
Perhaps Colorado Republicans should re-read the Constitution paying special attention to Article VI Clause 2 but they should also review some of the groundbreaking Supreme Court decisions like Gibbons v. Ogden, McCulloch v. Maryland, Cooper v. Aaron, and Missouri v. Holland that deal with the Supremacy Clause. They may not like Federalism but that’s what the founders they idolize created.
but, first of all, what makes you think enforcing immigration laws will alienate the average Latino voter? Do you think that they like to compete with illegal workers or that Latino’s support our laws being broken? I think you’re being racist in thinking Latino’s are less law abiding then other Americans. If I remember correctly, more then 50% of Latino voters polled in Colorado supported the Arizona law.
Second, it is interesting that you think that lawmakers shouldn’t do what is right for the country or all citizens, but what is right to pander to a certain group of voters.
Third, according to exit polls from the last election, many white voters who supported Obama and Democrats in 2008, supported Republican candidates in 2010. Part of that may have been because of the Democratic stance on illegal immigration.
Things are much more complex then you portray them and you’re just blowing smoke if you think that proposing legislation to deal with the high costs of illegal immigration is alienating Latino voters. Like other Americans they care about the economy, believe laws should be enforced fairly, and otherwise have similar opinions to other Americans.
