Who writes these bills? Who are the staffers in the Senate? And this is with a Republican Senate?
I am.

The Senate has lost its mind. I am proud that the Senators from Georgia have consistently voted against citizenship and amnesty. If they want to stay in DC, they need to listen to the folks back home and continue to vote that way.
Welcome to the warped world of a Republican controlled Senate. NEVER, in my wildest imagination, did I ever think they could possibly be worse thaan the Dems. Worse, one of my senators, Mel Martinez, is partially responsible for this drecl of a "compromise bill" that gives Bush and the illegal invaders everything they want at the expense of American citizens who pay the bills and vote to keep these traitors in office.
In the 90s, someone came up with an idea called "THRO" for "Throw the Rascals Out". It was a great idea until it came time to put it into play. Turns out, most voters thought their rascals were ok, it was everyone else's rascals that were the problem.
Maybe it's finally time to clean house in the Congress and start over again (or, as one columnist put it a few weeks ago, re-boot Congress). What we have is NOT a "Representative Republic" and we need to get throwing them out until we get a Representative Republic.
That's an oxymoron.
The number of probable illegals who come rolling through our General District Court is awesome. They don't have licenses, or they've been scammed into getting "international licenses". They don't have insurance. They plead guilty because they just want to pay the fine and get out, while if there was a trial, their status might come up in the conversation. It's sad for them and frustrating for everyone. Sometimes its fatal for a few. Bad stuff.
