1. Menendez is spreading lies...he is doing so at the behest of the Assclown and Dingy Harry in order to calm conservative fears...to make us "feel better" for the moment while he and his fellow thugs arm twist.
2. Menendez is speaking the TRUTH...and really wants to get people to call their Senators to pass amnesty.
Either way, we must convince the Senate (and the House, if it comes to that) to NOT pass amnesty.
They always say this right before they pass something.
Agreed. Reid can wait til July and ram it through once he changes the rules ... can’t he?
The longer this is jammed up in the Senate the better.
Obama has been spending a lot of time with Crispy Creme...
Rumors was just a month or two back, tht Lautenberg is not well and Menedez still has a 15 yr old Domenican Hooker problem that has gone away for now...
What if Obama is greasing the skids for Crispy to appoint one or two Dem's should both of these Turkeys be out of the Senate soon?
The traitors in Washington are determined to replace American voters with Mexicans.
I sure could use a major refund from the gub'mnt for two of my tax bills over the last 5 years!~
So, far, no response but no reason a Republican couldn't submit that as an amendment ~ big ol'tax cut for everybody, including Bill Gates ($20 billion back perhaps?) and Warren Buffett. What's not to like!
Once Obama sees the scandals continuing to gain traction, I believe this Senate will invoke the nuclear option so they only need 50 votes to ram all future legislation down our throats.
They have broken the law everyday that they’ve been in power and they’re really going to pull out all the stops soon.
Its closer to #2...
As more info comes out...it will be harder to pass bill. And, there will be Dem senators in red states up for reelection....supporting $6 trillion amnesty bill will not win votes
Menendez needs Hispanics/Illegals to push for support
The pro-amnesty bill commercials I have heard on Hannity and Rush are so intellectually and factually insulting ("Conservative plan" my backside!) I scream at the radio at every lie they utter.
But you gotta love 'em -- they (Sean/Rush) are pure Capitalists!
Let me paraphrase the late Mary McCarthy: every word they say is a lie, including 'and' and 'the.'"
Don't believe anything these bags of slime tell you, regardless of whether it reinforces or contradicts pre-existing assumptions you have.
Maybe I’m missing something, but they got 5 votes to get it out of committee, so add that to the 55 votes that the Dems have in the Senate (thanks to Akin) and they have their 60 votes.
That assumes the 5 Republicans stick with it...and it’s hard to believe they’ll change now, and that no Dems oppose - of which I haven’t heard a single complaint, from a single Dem.
Short on votes? No problem... That’s what bribes are for.
I laugh when I hear a commercial on the radio with Rubio. He says that with this bill, those who are going through the process to become legal will not received welfare. Effing liar.
Rubio probably lost any support from me with that. I hate liars.

A new poll from Rasmussen finds that likely voters overwhelmingly favor border security before legalization for 11 million illegal aliens, and 53% of respondents don't think it's likely that the federal government will actually secure the border to prevent future illegal immigration.
The poll was conducted in late-March just before Gang of Eight member, Sen. Chuck Schumer, told NBC News “first, people will be legalized Then, we will make sure the border is secure...I think most of the American people agree with that.” Rasmussen's poll, however, found that the American people don't agree with Sen. Schumer’s statement.
Rasmussen first asked likely voters if they support a comprehensive immigration reform plan that would grant illegal aliens an amnesty if the “border would really secured to prevent future illegal immigration.” Fifty-nine percent of the respondents said they would favor such a plan.
Of those that said they would support the plan, however, they were then asked, “should those who are now in this country illegally be granted legal status right away or should that come only after the border is secured?” Sixty-four percent of those that supported the plan said the border should be secured before legal status is granted. Only 26% agreed with Sen. Schumer that illegal aliens should first be legalized and then the border secured. . .
This bill is starting to lose a little gas....not much, but some cracks are starting to show. This bill in its current form is DOA in the house. The house committee it has to pass through has some real conservatives on it. This same bill died in 2007 with a republican president & house.
So....not all is lost, quite yet.
Rubio was BSing on Hannity tonight saying the bill must be fixed so he is implying that he doesn’t support it now, yet.
So its probably true for now. More gamesmanship to come.
Yes Rubio was BSing up a storm,
The selling out of an entire nation to a foreign entity. Amazing. Can’t say I recall wanting to raise a white flag.
