It seems clear there are two issues the Right Wing and Republicans and "Conservatives" really never, ever want "fixed" or solved in this country.
The first is immigration. This out today:
Through negotiations from both sides of the political aisle, a deal was made that would require immigrants here, most specifically from Mexico, that would take 8 years to become a legalized citizen if they're already here illegally.
As though that would be easy, Senator Marco Rubio (R, Fl) has announced the plan virtually "dead on arrival."
But of course this is the man who, with his water-gulping response to President Obama's State of the Union address, kicked off his own campaign to become the next Republican president in 2016.
So naturally he can't be for any real solution to the immigration problem.
The 2nd, other problem the Right Wing and Republicans never want to really solve in this country is that of abortion.
Sure, they want fewer abortions, but they don't really want this issue to go away or to actually be illegal because, after all, then what single-issue would they have? What could or would they use then to "rally their troops" and raise millions of dollars? You can only bash gays so much and besides, that doesn't raise nearly as much money.
If people were so truly against abortions in this country, they'd support scientific, health care solutions like RU486 and "Plan B", day-after pills to eliminate abortions.
But again, if they did that, where would their issue go?
Answer: it would be gone.
And then what would they rail against?
