| During an interview for “This Week,” former Florida governor Jeb Bush told me that he was “in sync” with South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham on the issue of immigration reform. Graham, a key member of the bipartisan group of senators pushing for immigration reform, took Bush to task after the former Florida governor said Monday that he did not support a pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants, which is a key component of the plan being pushed by the Senate group. Bush subsequently reversed course and said he could in fact support a plan

Comments: Lindsey Graham?? Can you get any more clueless than this?

Bless your heart, Jeb. You just lost half of the Republican party vote. The only more despised Establishment Republican would be John McCain, and I´m sure for the sake of comity, you will find something likable in the old cooty-bird.

It used to be said, before the Obama economy, that ans 50 cents would get you a cup of coffee. I think old Jeb is having a mid-life crisis or worse. Who beyond Kelly Ayotte and cranky old John McCain are in sync with Lindsey Grahmnesty? Who in their right mind would want to be in sync with him? Maybe Jeb is doing all of this to please Bush 41 since he is in declining health and maybe wanted Jeb to run? It is not going to happen and will not go well if he tries.

Well the same thing could happen again if 3-4 conservatives run against one moderate. Romney never got more 30% and he got the nomination while the remaining 70% was split among the other conservative candidates. Jeb is in sync with ms lindsey graham and President Johnson. Good grief either the Republican party changes or there will be a third party.

The last Republican the country needs to try for the White House is another Bush. If this Bush were to actually run, Obama and the Clintons would grind him up and spit him out before he ever got across the starting line.
What this Bush is now doing is taking a libertarian approach to solving the illegal alien problem. That essentially consists of granting just about all illegal aliens amnesty of some sort, and opening up the borderline to all potential illegal aliens in the future so that they can easily get a pass to legally enter the USA and work.
After those interim steps are taken and a few years pass, with 20 million or more aliens having a legal immigration status, the call would go out by the liberal Democrats to simply grant them all US citizenship and most importantly to the liberal Democrats, US voting rights.
Since the vast majority of those "New Americans" as the liberal Democrats call them, would be poor people, who are generally uneducated, earning low wages, with large families, there is little doubt that the vast majority of them would vote for the liberal Democrats who will offer them absolute access to all the US social safety net benefit and welfare service programs.
With 10 million or more new voters the liberal Democrats would be in a position to send the Republicans into a downhill slide to political oblivion. Obviously the Republican (Stupid) Party cannot yet see that.
The Republicans should never grant 11-20 million any sort of amnesty that will lead them to a special path to citizenship in the future. Any legalized alien, before being granted permanent residence, should have to qualify for an immigrant visa, just as all legal immigrants are required to do before they are given a "Green card".

I’m worried about the Supreme Court. I’m worried about how the justices can properly debate same-sex marriage when some don’t even seem to realize that most Americans use the word “gay” now instead of “homosexual”; when Chief Justice John Roberts thinks gays are merely concerned with marriage as a desirable “label,” and when Justice Samuel Alito compares gay marriage to cellphones. The Nine are back there in their Miss Havisham lairs mulling, disconcertingly disconnected. In his zeal to scare people about the “possible deleterious effect” of gay parents adopting, Justice Antonin Scalia did not seem fully

Anti-abortion groups have been trying to re-impose restrictions on abortion rights for 40 years, but the Legislature and governor of North Dakota have taken this attack on women’s reproductive health and freedom to a shocking new low by passing a bill that they must know perfectly well is unconstitutional by any reading of the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision and others since.Under those rulings, full abortion bans are allowable only after fetal viability, which the medical community generally considers to be around 24 weeks into pregnancy. But North Dakota joins a growing list

"Not until I went to the churches of America and heard her pulpits aflame with righteousness did I understand the secret of her genius and power. America is great because she is good, and if America ever ceases to be good, America will cease to be great.” So wrote Alexis de Tocqueville. Yet, judged by the standards of those old “pulpits aflame with righteousness,” is America still a good country? Consider the cases taken up this week by the Supreme Court

Quite a few Republicans have been announcing new stages in their “evolution” on same-sex marriage, which is being debated in the Supreme Court today and tomorrow. Senator Rob Portman of Ohio said earlier this month that he was prompted to reverse his position when he learned his son was gay – after a two-year period of reflection that included having his name floated as a potential running mate for Mitt Romney, a staunch opponent of gay marriage.

In 2011, I wrote about mass murder at Kermit Gosnell’s abortion “clinic”: From the Office of the District Attorney in Philadelphia: Viable babies were born*. Gosnell killed them by plunging scissors into their spinal cords. He taught his staff to do the same. This is a remarkable moment in American life: A man is killing actual living, gurgling, bouncing babies on an industrial scale – and it barely makes the papers.

It was a sickening crime that fit an all-too-familiar storyline. Young men who turned a night of partying into an ugly sexual assault. A culture in which high school football players are treated like gods and act as if no rules apply. And an innocent young woman who was abused by people she thought were friends and then humiliated. But what made the Steubenville, Ohio, rape case — which ended today with guilty verdicts against Trent Mays and Ma’lik Richmond — different and what made it feel cutting edge is the pervasive role

The world is full of Roman Catholics who long ago stopped following the dogma, doctrine and medieval sexual dictates of the church. But they never lost faith in Francesco, the merchant’s son who spoke to wolves, slept on dirt floors and dined with lepers. That the new pope would take the name of Francis, in honor of the saint from the Umbrian town of Assisi, is the most radical first move by a pontiff in some time. The 12th century mystic is the nature saint, patron of the environment, the poor, the dispossessed.

Jeb Bush isn’t not running for President. This is big news, even though the next presidential election is several zillion tweets away. It shakes up the political money world, where potential saviors like Chris Christie and Marco Rubio may find it much harder to fill their treasuries. It may tee up yet another of those Bush-vs.-Clinton death matches that are so entertaining. But it is potentially more important for those who’d like to see the Republican Party evolve past its current juvenility. Bush is thoughtful, and he thinks big. Asked on Morning Joe to name

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank
