My cable flaked out in the middle of Alexander's speech

Sen. Session really called the other Senators out ...for misrepresenting the "amnesty" aspects..

And he DID call for a fence, deportation, and more beds at the border for holding people.

He also talked about this morning's hearing...and how it is a shame that the hearings take so long to get to...and that needs to change..

Thanks for the recap, sleuth. I have a daughter who almost always calls at about this time so I often miss what happens. (She is such a sweetie, but so are all my girls.)

LOL...my daughter knows the usual time I eat dinner...but, inevitably she will call while I am eating...and she says

"What are you doing?"....hehehe

Of course, when I say I am eating, she apologizes profusely, and then proceeds to tell me why she called....LOL

So, while I am talking to her, I am putting my plate in the microwave!!!

I just love her so much though... I never get mad.

Here is a piece on Allard's amendment excluding terrorists from obtaining visas which should be done as a stand alone law:

That is probably the best thing to do...I usually end up as mad watching O'Reilly, as I do Chrissy sometimes.

Have there been any votes YET on the Immigration bill??

Nope, nothing yet. Leahy was up to something this morning getting them to not offer any amendments until after they meet in their caucuses and determine in what order they will be presented. Did you see the article saying that McCain/Kennedy doesn't have the votes to pass. I hope that's right.

No, I just got home...and have been answering pings...

BTW..why did Tony's show only have a little over 230 posts??

I would think with the Tom Delay announcement, the Cynthia McKinney thingy, and immigration, it would have been a hugh thread...

Was Tony not there again?

I have no idea. Lots of regulars missing. Tony and radioproducer were both on the thread. It was just very, very sluggish.

I did get pinged to a Laura Ingraham thread...do you think some of Tony's regulars are going there??

I know this isn't something I should even care about..I just thought it odd that there were so few posts today.

No, I peeked in to see. It was just an odd day, I guess.

Did you happen to hear the replay of one of this morning's C-span journal shows...that they just played during this quorum call???

It was about George Allen..
