That was a condition that Graham, the only Republican backing the energy bill, had insisted on. But Reid did not indicate when or how he would proceed with the energy bill. He also implied that the immigration bill was still in the mix,

The clowns can’t figure out what tactic to destroy America should come first.

The Health Bill had a Bill attached that took over the College Loan Programs, do not put it pass them to not include an immigration bill into the Climate Bill.

I’m stunned by this. Pretty much EVERYONE now knows that the theory of global warming is pure crap. And yet, the Democrats continue to insist on shoving another huge bill on our country in its prevention?

Why aren’t the RINO’s in Congress calling them out on crap like this?

Oh, that’s right...because they’re RINO’s.

“while the immigration bill had not yet been written.”

This hasn’t stopped the socialist maroon in the past, they just make it up as they go, and when it becomes mammoth, no one on their socialist corps bothers to read it anyhow, they just toe up and vote when told.

RATS. IDIOTS. Sickening.

Don’t equate Harry Reid with Rat Fink! Reid would have a straight uphill climb to be on that level.

How will we survive these Democrat vermin? The amount of damage they are doing to the country will destroy more lives than all the wars in US history.
