Sources described the changes as relatively minor -- "adding a few periods," as one lawmaker put it -- but nevertheless changing some minds...............What we don't know is what kind of pressure was put on those who changed their minds

Dems are squealing like stuck pigs. That alone is worth the vote imo.

Let the boy act “unilaterally”. The Kenyan cares more about foreign freeloaders than he does the American people. This is why the Founding Fathers wanted the U.S. President to always be an American. The low information types/”white guilt” liberals really screwed that up.

Somebody get me clear on this language.

Doesn’t ‘deportation’ refer to a revocation of a residency ‘status’? That is, doesn’t a ‘deportee’ need to have some sort of prior approval to reside in the US, which is then revoked by the deportation procedure?

These people have no rights we need respect (humanitarian, yes, but legal, no). Crickey, I sound like Roger B. Taney).

They are invaders pure and simple. We don’t owe them anything except a C-130 flight back to their country of origin.

He should act alone in the sense that he should ...

1. tell Central American Presidents to stop sending these bums over here

2. rescind his previous policies that restrained border agents from doing their jobs and enforcing our borders

3. support state efforts to control our borders ... and

4. resign

Yes - Osama/Obama should act alone.

This is pretty much noise. Any bill passed by the House will sit until the Senate get back from the recess (30 days). And nobama has already said he’ll veto it.

Yes, but now the GOP can go home and campaign on being successful in passing a bill.

That's NOT what Obama wanted.

Sounds excessive to me. How about a one-liter bottle of water and, for directions, a finger pointing South.

Clever. Now the democratically controlled senate is MIA and Obama is stuck. He can go ahead and act unilaterally but is in a box of his own making.

This will prove to be a good Repub move for one reason.....Boobamba announce he will veto the bill.

Recent polls find voters lean Republican for their strong stance on immigration———FAR ABOVE all other issues.

What they passed actually looks pretty good. Its dead in the water but its something worth rallying around and some democrats are already getting hammered for opposing what’s in it.

It is almost as if 0beyMe is begging for impeachment under rule 303.

As much as I want him out of office I hope no one tries to harm him. The Dims would make him into a martyr faster than John Kennedy.

I was against this but I read the bill summary and it was wonderful. We have the House taking ACTION. We have the Senate on vacation and the “president” playing golf. We look great. I was wrong.

WHERE'S THE SENATE?"

Oh that's right, if the Senate was SERIOUS about passing a border bill that fixes Obama's mess, Obama wouldn't have the excuse he needs to PASS AMNESTY ON HIS OWN.
