(may I include this)

Maine senators key to Don’t Ask vote

Pro-repeal activists say they don’t have enough votes yet.

All eyes are on Maine as gay-rights groups try to repeal Don’t Ask Don’t Tell.

The state’s senators could cast the deciding votes for cloture on the issue. Activists say they don’t yet have enough votes to overcome a filibuster of the defense-bill amendment, which would remove a 17-year-old law that bans openly gay Americans from serving in the military.

“The votes to break McCain’s filibuster are not there,” said Aubrey Sarvis of Servicememebers Legal Defense Network, which sent Lady Gaga to Maine Monday to organize a rally and pressure the state’s senators.

Sens. Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe are Republicans, but the activists believe that both Maine lawmakers could succumb to pressure and back the repeal. Collins and Snowe worked with Democrats on health care and environmental issues earlier this year.

Catholics for Equality, a pro-repeal religious group, could play a key role in the lobbying effort.

The group met with religious lawmakers on Friday to convince them that the repeal would not violate their faith. Collins is Catholic, and Snowe is Greek Orthodox.

“Speaking out as pro-equality Catholics is so important to the legislative process,” activist Patsy Trujillo said.

In case the Maine duo votes against repeal, Human Rights Campaign has also been pressuring Sens. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), George Voinovich (R-Ohio), and Richard Lugar (R-Ind.) to back cloture.

Meanwhile, conservative groups led by the Center for Military Readiness have been calling lawmakers to ensure that their side has the 41 votes needed to make the filibuster work.

The debate is expected to begin on the Senate floor Tuesday.

No one seems to know about this Amnesty for illegals hidden in a defense bill.

I don't think this is on Drudge, Rush, Hannity, Levin. I haven't heard it on these sources. Maybe we should email them.

Democrats/socialists are trying to get more voters, the illegals and their families just in time for the election.

Americans for Legal Immigration PAC is launching a new tactic this morning designed to stop US Senator Harry Reid’s (D-NV) attempt to pass a form of Amnesty for illegal immigrants by inserting the Dream Act provision into the defense authorization legislation scheduled for a vote on Tuesday September 21rst at 2:15PM.

“We call on the Senate to stop Reid and Obama’s surprise attack Amnesty,” said William Gheen President of ALIPAC. “This Nightmare Act is opposed by a strong majority of Americans and passage of Amnesty using dirty legislative tricks to attach it to defense spending will be strongly rebuked by Americans on November 2nd!”

While advocates of the Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act ramp up calls and emails to the US Senate in Washington using multimillion dollar resources provided by corporations, foundations, and US taxpayers, ALIPAC’s AMNESTY OPPONENTS will take this fight directly to the US Senate campaigns across America today.

“We are directing our activists against amnesty to contact every US Senate campaign in America today to determine which candidates oppose or support Obama and Reid’s Dream Act Amnesty amendment,” said William Gheen. “We intend to track which Senate candidates support or oppose this Amnesty attempt and remind them all that voters will defeat any candidate unwise enough to support this Amnesty ambush!”

Any “free” numbers that we can use. I love calling DC on the Union’s dimes.

I don't think this is on Drudge, Rush's show, Hannity's show, Mark Levin's show. I haven't heard it on these sources. Maybe we should email them.

Previous Republican supporters of the DREAM Act, such as Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), have said they will vote against the bill.

Maybe Hatch considered what happened to his Utah Senate colleague Bob Bennett, and the former Utah Congressman Chris Cannon, who was a big supporter of amnesty.

Not at all, since she's on her way out...and not answering phones at any of her offices.
