Another Conservative Jumps On Amnesty Bandwagon
Just saw this over at Ace Of Spades. I have been harping about the CBO report and how it conveniently fits in with all of the rhetoric coming from Bambam and his minions.
Another “Conservative” For Amnesty—DrewM.
Unsurprisingly, David Brooks is on Team Amnesty. He lays out his reasons why the GOP should support it and needless to say they are wanting.
After all, the Senate bill fulfills the four biggest conservative objectives. Conservatives say they want economic growth. The Senate immigration bill is the biggest pro-growth item on the agenda today. Based on estimates from the Congressional Budget Office, the Senate bill would increase the gross domestic product by 3.3 percent by 2023 and by 5.4 percent by 2033. A separate study by the American Action Forum found that it would increase per capita income by $1,700 after 10 years.
Ah yes, the CBO. The same people who predicted economic growth thanks to the so-called “stimulus” of 2009. That didn’t work out so well. And then there’s the CBO and ObamaCare.
If you’re going to appeal to authority, try one that hasn’t been so wrong recently.
