Stunning facts about the proposed immigration bill

SENATOR SESSIONS ON SECURING AMERICA'S BORDERS ACT

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 !

"We have room for but one flag, the American flag...
We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...
And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Thank you so much -- I would never have found that article. It appears that Mark Krikorian's numbers were off in his article, but that still doesn't absolve Hagel.

All MSM is pretty much the same. They set up a strawman and then manipulate the discussion so they can knock him down. They cut off anyone intelligent enough to shine through their deceit.

(Thanks for the ping... I just got to it too late to sse Tom).

COYOTES.... great description of these political hacks. They are no better than the criminal COYOTES who smuggle illegal human cargo into the US. The only difference is that they do it under color of their political position.

For both nations, it's a deal with the devil, ...

Isn't that the truth. Great post. I accomplished most of my phone calls this morning. Sen. Frist's office was a busy signal every time I called. I guess the Senate Majority leader hasn't updated his communications lines as well as my Senators or Congresswoman's. Time now for some e-mailing.

And FReeping. :)

Thanks I'll listen to Dom tonite.
If you get a chance call Specters Philly office. Tel: 215-597-7200. They're SWAMPED with phone calls. The man that answered the phone knew what I was calling about before I even said it and most of the calls are AGAINST what Specter is trying to do and against amnesty.

Your welcome. Truth be told all these Senators have to do is talk to us ordinary people in the neighborhoods and they'll know what is really going on around the country.

LOL they'd be too scared to do it. Why care what the little people say when the special interest groups pay your bills.

Yes, that is true. But I don't think it's going to happen. It's hard enough to get their ears with phone call, faxes, e-mails, telegrams, petitions ........ But don't anyone get me wrong ... keep on doing it!

Border Control Must Improve, Boehner Says House Leader Stresses Law Enforcement By Shankar Vedantam Washington Post Staff Writer Monday, April 10, 2006; Page A07
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/04/09/AR2006040900914.html

---- snip ----
"I'm for securing the borders and enforcing the laws," Boehner said on ABC's "This Week." "Until we do that, if you try to create a guest-worker program, all you're doing is inviting more illegal immigration."
---- snip ----

I maybe wrong but I see progress here. As Boehner says, finally the idea of putting the cart after horse,:) is gaining momentum. No scientific data here! I just hear me more now than a week ago, when all I heard was about the "11 M here... what can we do?" and "... we are a nation of Immigrants... etc"

It appears to me that common sense is beginning to take hold
