He needs to keep up the fight on this issue - considering that the terrorist had 64 of them - This shows that some liberal states "are" putting the entire nation at risk - and for what? Over the "rights" of illegals? Total nonsense - they are breaking our laws - deport them and then they won't need a D.L. -

What is wrong with the leadership in the Senate? Are they affaid to stand up for this nation against the President who seems to be out of touch with what is going on with the illegals - Over 70% of the citizens want something done about the illegals - Only 51% voted for the President. More people want the illegals delt with - Clearly the people are in the Reps. corner on this issue -

All day today the media has made this sound like a minor hang up - Well - it isn't - and those who know it isn't need to speak up and get their faces in front of the public more - or else the other side with make it seem like this one Rep. is standing alone - and holding up the security of the nation - Totally false but the media is good at putting out false stories -

This is not a state issue - not when the whole nation's security is at risk -

just my thoughts -

I believe that Frist will push for the elimination of the filibuster completely or perhaps go for the 60 57 54 51 system where eventually only 51 votes including the VP is needed to overcome a filibuster. The Senate can make it's own rules and should. At one time the House could filibuster as well this was done away with eons ago. The time is right to do away with it in the Senate as well. Not just for Judges but for all bills. It is time for the majority to once again rule except for those few things the Constitution requires more than half on.
