Yes. And, ignoring or refusing to schedule a vote on an immigration bill passed in the Senate is a slap in the face as well.

I agree with this. At the end of the day, they are politicians and even tho the majority of them are idiots, you do have the GOP establishment types that do it for the party. So it will have to be a major bipartisan support from the DEMS here. But i think this would be the perfect time to throw their backs against the wall on the DA.

After Obama's June 15th announcement there were a ton of GOP reps/senators saying that its BS bc we (as beneficiaries) should have a permanent fix, not just a stop-gap measure. So, call them on their bluff and bring up the permanent solution. Romney is already losing the Hispanic vote by something like 40 pts. I want to see him lose it by 70pts.

I am surprised as to why the hell Romney even has above 20 pts.

Cubans, red carpet treatment allows them to be dipshits with their votes.
