I think we'll be hearing about the protests today.......

And can we stop calling them illegal "immigrants" and start calling them illegal INVADERS?

Thanks for the ping.

Sorry there was no ping yesterday,I was slammed at work.

I posted this on another thread about my take on the current process and it AIN"T very Pretty.

I am watching the Senate debate the immigration bill.

Senators Spector and Murdering Ted Kennedy seem to be doing everything possible to throw a monkey wrench into any amendments proposed by opponents to Amnesty..

I believe that the Senate is showing that it is incapable of passing laws that uphold Americas values.

I am absolutely disappointed so far with the way the Senate is conducting business.

I would expect some of this inefficiency in the house with the likes of Cynthia McKinney but not with Senators.

Folks our Senators are not listening to the voters that sent them to represent us.

Thank God for Jim Imhoff, Tom Corburn, John Cornyn, Jeff Sessions and others.

A pox on Spector and Kennedy.

And of course John McCaniac.
