Damaging about what kyl did today, is he showed it to be the latter. he said, actually, were only worried about the deficit when its something democrats want to do. when it is our principles on the line, you know what, its actually not that big of a deal. as a matter of principle, we dont need to worry about the deficit quite right then. >> what it means is that there ought to be a caption, or at least an asterisk that just appears on the lower third of the screen every time a republican starts ...

Resolution. it is. it is supposedly to support puerto ricos self-determination on whether or not if they want to be a state. oh, well, thats great. i think we have some other things, you know, that might be more important. you know what i mean? why do we need this? that is the question im left with. why do we need this? do we need a non-binding resolution to support self-determination? theyve been asked this question. they can ask it again. i mean is there something going on in puerto rico im no...

It has always been the same question. here it is. three times. 67, 93 and 98 they voted. no. the question has been: do you want to become a state? do you want the be a state? thats the question. pretty easy. no. now, let me take you to washington, d.c. remember this question. puerto rico, do you want to be a state? no. three times. now let me take you to washington, d.c., where tomorrow an important vote is happening. theyre not asking this question do you want to be a state? no, no no. this sou...

So, they said okay. thats how we had the 16th state. alaska did the same thing. kind of. let me restate. they elected delegates for congress, they voted on statehood and they drafted a state constitution, applied for statehood, went to the capitol and demanded to be seated. this is the key. it doesnt matter what happens in congress. it doesnt matter. doesnt matter. they demanded and they were seated. congressman, any congressman who votes for this, for some reason or another -- give them the ben...

H.r.-2499. if this passes, tomorrow, tomorrow they vote on this. if this passes it will force a yes or no vote in puerto rico. not on this question. no, no, no. do you want to be a state no. no. if this passes tomorrow, what they are going to ask is this question -- do you want to maintain the current status of puerto rico? well, no, wait a minute. thats not the same question. why? why? do you went to maintain the status quo? let me ask you this. do you want to maintain the status quo of our cou...

Vote. but see, not so much. because progressives are going to present a false choice to people. instead of saying do you want to be a state? its do you want the status quo? they vote no. next vote removes status quo from the ballot to leave statehood against two far less options and statehood will vote. so whoa! then they will elect their congressmen and their senators, theyll demand to be seated and you be sewing on a 51ststra star attached to the flag. how could this happen? well, the immigrat...

I guarantee you bertha lewis would say hell, no. you see this question puts us in to agreement. see the trick? that is not the same question as do you want to be a state? its just do you want to just be like this? no. who is doing this? well, in the past, in puerto rico, statehood fails because some people do like the status quo. and its enough to make everything else collapse. there are some who want to be a state. there are those who want to be independent. there are those who want to be indep...

Not on the same answer. but on the question. see the status quo, more likely to vote for statehood over independence. in 1998, there were five options on the ballot. there were limited self-government, free association, statehood, sovereignty, none of the above. which vvhone won? none of the above. now the vote will happen in two stages. the first stage is do you want to maintain the current status? then the chair removes. the second vote happens. and theyre left with three choices. statehood, f...
