“I hate this Lugar “
I don’t hate Lugar. I hate his politics.
You concede the : Lugar, but then go on to argue that we should all march lock-step to the beat of the GOP drum, etc. and so on.
What say we just agree that you are are a straight-vote party man who supports Republicans while I am a conservative who only supports conservatives.
You can keep putting up candidates like McCain and Romney, and “people like me” will keep knocking them down.
One other sometime RINO, Mark Kirk of IL, also deserves kudos for his no vote and his opposition to the Omnibus Budget bill. It’s a lot better to have elected him than his DemonRat opponent. Also, think of the DemonRats who voted agaist this. If we hadn’t given the House and Senate DemonRats such a thrashing, we’d probably have the Nightmare Act right now. Clearly, we need to get rid of the really horrible RINOs, like Murkowski, with whom we are still stuck, but many of the lesser RINOs can be persuaded to see the light and those we should allow to remain.
“And many of you don’t fairly point out the good and the bad of the Republican party but blame the whole party and every Republican for the actions of a few liberal/democrat evil lunatics like Lugar and Murkowski that decided to call themselves Republicans.”
Pretzel logic. Lugar and Moosekowski tried to hurt us with
their votes but all you see is freepers attacking the GOP.
Yeah the Republican party has problems and few bad apples but the criticism here blames all Republicans for the actions of the few RINOS and borders on insane obsessive hate against Republicans. What is perfect, is life? Work should be done to replace some RINOS but you have to aware that you will never get rid of all RINOs in ANY major party. But imo the main focus should be on destroying the democrat party
Yeah 95% of Democrats tried to hurt us,America , and freedom with their votes for the Dream act.
This is still a great victory today and it was because almost all (Not all) Republicans did the right thing.
Snowe voted NO.
Collins voted NO.
Brown voted NO.
Kirk voted NO.
McCain voted NO.
It DOES make a difference to have them in the Senate instead of Democrats.
Yes, and also Republican Senator Scott Brown of Mass. He is the one who Replaced Kennedy. Scott Brown is against Amnesty.But many here wanted the Democrat to defeat Brown.
Warner (D-VA), Yea
Webb (D-VA), Yea
Noted. Virginians will erase both next election.
I agree... I think, the Dems just DON'T GET how out of touch they are with the general public on this issue... all they see is, MORE VOTES.
What they don't see is... CITIZENS already here are YELLING NO!! to this silent takeover.
Point well taken. Thanks.
The House passed its version last week. Prince Harry wanted a vote on that version, but as shown here could not get enough votes for cloture.
It's gonna be tough for supporters to revive this thing in the next Congress. Phew!
“If this Dream act had passed then the U.S. would have been finished.”
If the NAU/SPP keeps progressing behind the scenes we’re done anyway. We really have a secret government populated with bankers, bureaucrats, NGO’s and ‘think tanks’ which are guiding us to ruin.
PLEASE BE VIGILANT
In the next three weeks, the RATS might try to insert this bill into a continuing resolution or other bill.
Keep calling your senators to remind them (and their staffs) of such a trick.
