Republicans sink even lower

The Oregon Republican Party wants to gut Section 1 of the 14^th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. For those who aren’t current on the Constitution (the Amendment has only been around since 1868), take a refresher course:

Section 1.
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

These Republicans want to do away with the provision that anyone born in the U.S. is a U.S. citizen. This is really creepy, even for Republicans. I’m waiting to see how Billo spins this.
