This could be the start of something very bad for America...and the citizenry has no voice in it...you can imagine what it is going to be, especially given the last attempt which was a travesty upon America...

WASHINGTON (AP) _ The Bush administration and key senators are struggling to agree on draft legislation to secure the U.S.-Mexico border before putting millions of illegal immigrants on a path to citizenship that could take 13 years.

I wonder if there was a 21 year waiting period for voting rights, if these guys would be so eager to fill this place up.

“This is bad news, because what it demonstrates is that some of the liberal groups don’t feel like they’re going to get everything they want out of a consensus bill,” Cornyn said. “So they’re trying to undermine our ability to get a bill.”

This is one time I hope they succeed.

“That can’t be good”

Ah, it’s all a show to make Bush seem as if he’s in the middle position.

I think it is all dead.

The “Senators” have never met House members on this, as far as I can tell.

And when the filibuster comes, there will be Democrats like Ben Nelson participating, and the Rove/Media constructed narrative that all Democrats are on board cannot escape criticism.
