“Gang of Eight, four Democrats, four Republicans, wrote a comprehensive immigration reform bill which I still think in whole can be still used as a template for where we need to go,” U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin said. The measure he referenced from a decade ago was criticized as bringing about amnesty. Republicans are looking for the border to be closed.
Durbin is the only Illinois Dem I’ve seen taking moderate positions in the last several years. He retires and who replaces him? Not a Democrat… a progressive. I can’t say the same about Duckworth.
Durbin says one thing, and does another, like all politicians. Don’t be fooled by his less inflammatory rhetoric. He’s not really a moderate. He’s a party apparatchik. His voting record is nearly 100% progressive Democrat Party line. His voting record is virtually indistinguishable from Duckworths.
I would like to tell Dickie Durbin where HE needs to go.
Retire, you dinosaur! And take Duckworth with you .
Bah!
