http://bluntandcranky.wordpress.com/2013/08/16/lying-sack-of-s-of-the-week-reince-priebus/Most DUers already know about his flip-flop on self-deportation. For those who don't:
"The man must think we dont have an Internet. Republican National Committee chair Reince Priebus would have you believe that he is appalled, just appalled with the notion of self-deportation, oh yes, how very appalled indeed. Click the link to see how appalled he claims to be. There is just one little problem: he signed off on the concept in the latest Republican party platform. Whoops.
He can call self-deportation all kinds of nasty names, but he himself blessed this plank:
We will create humane procedures to encourage illegal aliens to return home voluntarily, while enforcing the law against those who overstay their visas.
That is to say, have people choose to deport themselves. Or, put another way, self-deportation.
Hey, RNC Reince: Id be appalled to tell you to wear s*** on your head; so here is a Crown O Polished Turds for you. See, totally different, right?"
Not much more at the link.

(38,506 posts)1. It'll be fun to see him try to explain this
As we get closer to the next convention and election, reporters are sure to bug him about it. Dishonest little chameleon.

My guess is they'll just passively regurgitate his words.

(35,392 posts)3. They're Republicans ... they're the ones who say that politicians change their lies
(usually saying it about Dems/Libs) from one day to the next "and don't have to be accountable".
And then, the lap-dog "liberally-biased media" doesn't call them out on their changing. But John Kerry, according to the "liberally-biased media", is a serial flip-flopper.
