"While I am disappointed that Congress — in classic fashion — has squandered this golden opportunity, I am encouraged by the president's commitment," Rep. Tom Tancredo said yesterday. "And I have every intention of making sure he keeps it."

The intelligence bill passed 336 to 75. From what I read it's a pretty good bill. Tancredo voted against it. I'm sure the fact that Tancredo shows his irrelevence with his vote is completely lost on him. I doubt Tancredo will be satisfied with the immanent immigration reform but I predict it will by a good bill with broad bipartisan support.

"I predict it will by a good bill with broad bipartisan support"

I would respectfully disagree, otherwise the original revisions on immigration reform that were suggested by the 9-11 commission a means to protect the security of the US would have been left in the bill. These people don't want immigration reform ever.

If they cant pass a bill with references and backing a most authoritative 9-11 report, what chance is there when there is no mandate to back it later? Unless perhaps its Hillary that will take up the torch which is perahps their fate now...

Tancredo voted against it.

Are you kidding? Mr. Borders?

It's a great bill.

If you enjoy increasing the size of the Fed...and doing not much else of substance.

This is simply restructuring of the existing entities...and adding a buttload of new offices, personnel, equipment. Not in the field.....more office pukes.

And 10,000 a day still cross...the border patrol is forbidden from doing their jobs, and the police department can't enforce public safety laws.

Yeah, great bill.
