I am actually weeping over this tonight. I feel we have lost our country to Mexico!

Speaking of New World Order -- did you see the post here tonight that the UN says Home Schooling your children is against a 1995 treaty Clinton signed with them.

"The bill "strengthens our security and reflects our humanity," said Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., "


Where was his humanity in July,1969 ??????

God I hate that man and I live in Massachusetts.

[ I am building homes in a gated community with 24 hour armed guards WITH NOT ONE F'ING ILLEGAL EMPLOYEE!! People will buy these homes to be PROTECTED from the illegals. ]

The illegals probably won't harm them in a gated community even WITH illegal alien employees..

Problem is nobody is protecting the community from CONGRESS, especially the Senate.. and the president is ecourageing their malfeance..

Too often, it goes unnoticed that the Constitution is intended to protect the people from the government.The gov't sometimes acts like it is the reverse equation.

The citizenry does not exist to serve the government.

The Founders intended to protect the people's rights by limiting the powers of government. Any action which is intended to protect the people's interests from an errant government is to be applauded.

Unfortunately, liberal thought police----NEA, PP'hood, SIECUS, etc----have indoctrinated a generation with Marxist/Socialist agit-prop so that many see the gov't as the solution to problems, and work to grant gov't more and more power over the lives of the citizenry.

We see here in the Senate bill what happens when an arrogant gov't assumes too much power.

Snowe, Olympia (R) Maine... vulnerable?

I went through the list in your link. It has kennedy and Hillary "vulnerable". And Snowe being vulnerable is news to me.

That list cannot be correct

It's from a 2004 thread, the link to it is on the post; sorry; the information is obviously not current, but that is how the list of Republican names was posted on the other thread.

Not so, said Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., chairman of the Judiciary Committee, in a rebuttal to weeks of debate. "They have to pay a fine. They have to undergo a criminal background check.

Are crossing a border by stealth (illegeally), using fraudulent SS documents, tax fraud, illegal use of a motor vehicle, etc. not crimes? Or are those crimes forgiven or overlooked?

You're absolutely right, Liz. But, what to do about it now? They've sold out America, signed over U.S. citizens' right by fiat to a corrupt country and corrupt president of Mexico.

You're absolutely right, Liz. But, what to do about it now? They've sold out America, signed over U.S. citizens' right by fiat to a corrupt country and corrupt president of Mexico.

The Founders wisely built-in escape valves----one of which is the election process.

Admittedly, the Senate has made it more difficult---- illegals are empowered now, more than ever, to vote using false documents. And our stupid Senators could care less that the invaders have threatened to take over the US with the vote----or with violence, if necessary.

Yet, we cannot and shall not be deterred. Pressure must be placed on House members to stand firm against the invading hordes. And the 2008 election looms as an opportunity to right these wrongs. For example, planks in the Repub party's presidential platform must include the negation of the Senate atrocity.

Three Very interesting Senators still have primaries.

Frist of Tennessee - August 3rd

Chafee of Rhode Island - September 12th

Snowe of Maine - June 13

Imagine the Impact of Frist losing his seat? As well as Chafee and Snowe.. RINO stampede. This is where to apply pressure on the Senate to get with the Program. If there are suitable Conservatives that can get elected we would be so much better off its crazy.. and we wouldn't have to flirt with giving over power to the Dems!!!
