Mr. President, I thank Senator Leahy, ranking member on the Judiciary Committee. I have received just this afternoon in my office some disturbing news in the form of correspondence from the Congressional Budget Office. It suggests a number of areas where the amendment we are talking about here today, No. 3424, the immigration so-called compromise, violates our budget and the rules of the Senate. Let me read from the correspondence we have received. This is something, as you know, Mr. President, as a member of the Judiciary Committee, that we never discussed at all. It is not a matter we spent any time at all discussing as we moved forward with legislation which ultimately cleared that committee and came to the floor legislation which I thought was not good legislation and which I opposed, and so did the Senator from Texas, who just relinquished the Chair. We didn't discuss the financial impact of the legislation before us. Stand Up For America ! |

LOL, you are a nut! ....no, no, don't post that 'smiley nut'!!
BECAUSE...
The use of "Black Flag" on a
bummer of a governor is illegal. (sarcastic poetry)
LOL, your 'charm princess' isn't dancing but I like the other one!!
(imagine three little smiley faces dancing and doing a jig) LOL
Are they really that happy when we run out of bandwidth? LOL
Smartass has 10 thousand smilies, they would be having a ball!!
Yes, we actually had a blackout in one area of our city yesterday! My brother, in Houston, sent out an alert about probable rolling blackouts there today.
The explanation is that the power companies are doing 'work and upgrading' during this early spring period! If it's already around 90* here in April I dread later on!
Rolling power black outs...
Strange, but that's how it got started in California, that led to about a 30 billion drain on the state's treasury. Later led to the recall of then Gov. Davis, then replaced by the "Terminator." Wacky, huh!
I remember it well but I believe power sources from outside California were cutting them off or something. Hope that doesn't happen here.
Perry's in enough trouble with his Trans Texas highway which most people don't want.
You've been posting some pretty impressive posts lately. I don't always reply to the large informative ones because I don't have anything to add.
I don't like the idea of foreign investors taking over something like this Trans Texas thing. That, and the fact they are destroying people's homes, ranches and farmlands.
The contracts are written for a long, long time. So long, later generations won't be able to keep track of the expiration dates. If the land was taken from Americans, using taxpayer monies, for public use, then it should remain within the state's domain. (poetry)
Foreign contracts don't pass the kick back smell test!
Ya, I'd like to know what's in it for Perry! He's so gung-ho to get it done. He's great to look at but not our favorite Governor!
Oooh, I'm really skeered now.... !!
And the excuse she gives is so insulting...
an endless circular argument about law enforcement.
Law enforcement would love the "burden" of enforcing the law; just ask L.A.P.D.
Best watch out for Hanta Virus too!
