WASHINGTON - Putting aside party differences, Senate Republicans and Democrats coalesced Thursday around compromise legislation that holds out the hope of citizenship to an estimated 11 million immigrants living in the United States unlawfully.
"We can no longer afford to delay reform," said Republican Sens. John McCain and Edward M. Kennedy in a statement that capped weeks of struggle to find common ground. [TRANSLATION: Amnesty and a path to citizenship for 11 million illegal aliens]

You should be. I wish I could say the same about mine (Boxer and Feinstein). Unfortunately, Feinstein has gone completely to the dark side. Prior to this, she had occasional flashes of lucidity. No more.
Wanna trade? I'll throw in tickets to a Dodgers game.
why is everyone up in an uproar? Has this even passed the senate yet? I don't think so... and then they have to meet with the house to finalize the bill right?
Yep, got to keep those 30 dollar a month cow hands down on that big Texas ranch of his.
It is a little hard to believe Frist any more, He appears to have taken lessons from John Flip Flop Kerry.
Frist went from strong to dud in a week
I find the holding of a dog's life and a human's life in equal regard to be profoundly disturbing, reminiscent of PETA crazies.
You find this dog's life less than that of a scummy gang member?
The guy deserved killin'. The dog didn't.

Think the Lord would be proud of that?
Because they dared to even propose it.
It' ain'ta workin! We got too many "insurgents" comin over our southern border... We got too many RINO "insurgents" in the GOP... And we've even got too many pragmatist "insurgents" come even into the inner sanctum of FR, for goodness sake!!! They're everywhere!!! We're under seige!!! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!! (pulls out last remaining hairs and plucks himself baldheaded)
People who can organize 500,000 to march in LA, etc., can certainly do the same at the border. I hope the Governors and the Feds are ready for an invasion.. or the citizens will certainly do a fine job.. 'Don't mess with Texas'.. (or Arizona, for that matter ). Maybe, that is why McLame was pale on C-SPAN tonight.. The McKennedy bill is going down.
Only problem is....there are probably 30 million of them allready.
I'm all for it!
There's always loopholes in their legislation you could drive a truck through. They do it on purpose and then think they're fooling people.
I dunno. As I recall, the thread dealt with the gratuitous killing of a dog. Serial killers got their starts killing dogs for the fun of it.
He sure wouldn't be proud of your bitchin'-and-bellyachin'-all-the-time on this thread.
You ought to get yourself a dog. It would help your attitude.
Makes me wonder how many....not so good American types, are now on their way!
I wasn't referring to a legislature(legislation).
You don't round them up , you arrest anyone who hires them . You take away the freebees and they will deport themselves.
I dono.. I only know what I see and one half of what I read. I have faith in human nature.. I pray alot..
What loopholes are you talking about, the one's in this so-called compromise bill? If not I still expect there to be a whole bunch of them in there.
so is this beast going to die? or does it have the votes for cloture?
