To: Bloody Sam Roberts; All
I have a few questions, just for my own education...

Is this bill originating in the Senate? After it passes the Senate, it goes to the House, then to the President, right? So, even if they (the Senate) pass it as written, it still has to go to the House for their markup, right? I guess what I'm getting at is this: This isn't the final bill, ready for the President's signature, is it? 'Cause, if it is, we're hosed, people. (probly hosed, anyway, come to think about it...)

No, this isn't the final bill. That's the bad news.

This will breeze through the Senate and will go to the House. At which point, any reference to any language that might be considered objectionable will be removed....things like "wall", amnesty", etc....you get the picture.

This is legislation written by lawyers for lawyers and our President will sign it with a smile on his face.

We The People will then have a date to which we can point as the very day that The Republic died.

You are correct. We are hosed without hope. Almost.

There is another.
