One of the few Republicans with any interest in doing outreach to minorities just decided that not only way he going to come out against Obama’s immigration order, but he was going to make sure to drag the Asians into it.

Mission Accomplished, Senator Paul!

…except this isn’t putting people into camps and stripping them of their rights, liberties and possessions.

It’s giving them a chance to be true Americans.

Asshatsaywhat?

The obvious coda to Sen. Paul’s idocy being, “Unless I’m elected President, of course, then let the good times roll!”

And, of course!, if a Democrat had ever made an analogy like this, every. single. pundit in the MSM would be OUTRAGED beyond words. Apoplectic for days.

When a Repub does it, they smile faintly and say it was a bit over the top but they understand the point.

Can this clown be even more wrong and pathetic?

So by Paul’s logic, Ronald Reagan must have been Hitler given his actions on deferred action on deportations.

Pretty much the opposite of the Japanese/American internment.

An EO also integrated the Armed Forces…Whats your point?

Because throwing people into camps and not throwing people out of the country are the same thing. 'cause they both involve throwing in some way.

Isn’t Paul remotely aware that if the people he’s referring to were merely “Japanese” Roosevelt could arrested because they would be considered “enemy aliens”? They would not be citizens.

The tragedy is that that Roosevelt had Americans citizens of Japanese ancestry arrested. They were citizens deprived of due process.

There is a difference.

I feel bad, because snaggle-puss is going to spiral out of control before the primaries and won’t get to watch him immolate

Cribbing his argument from David Gergen on CNN, who also (ridiculously) compared this immigration action to Lincoln’s suspension of Habeas Corpus during the civil war.
