This is up there at the Hank Johnson Guam will "tip over and capsize" idiocy level for a congressman. But I don't doubt that he actually heard it from some constituents.

How does an idiot like Durbin even manage to get up in the morning and dress himself.

I wonder if Dicky is positioning himself for a Presidential run? What a worthless tool.

Looks like Durbin is starting a new "meme"....chain migration is a racist term.

Did he offer a PC term to take its place ?

I find “chain migration” to be a way to avoid saying slavery. They were involuntary immigrants, brought as slaves. My ancestors were not brought to the U.S. but another part of the Americas, and people call it what it was. I don’t find the term chain migration offensive but rather inaccurate.

Durbin must be really upset that he didn't get what he wanted on immigration.
