“We’d rather have no bill than a bad bill,” Kurt Bardella, spokesman for Rep. Brian Bilbray (R-Calif.),

YES, WE'D RATHER HAVE NO BILL THAN A BAD BILL.

That means you too, Hillary ; p

Illegals (who won’t obey the old law) are never going to pay a dime under the new law. This is such a joke...

“The trump card conservatives may hold is a constitutional rule that revenue-related bills must originate in the House. The Senate immigration measure requires that illegal immigrants pay back taxes before becoming citizens, opening the door to a House protest, dubbed a “blue slip” for the color of its paper.......”

From what I’ve heard, unless there has been an amendment, the bill does NOT require immigrants to pay back taxes. I heard it originally did require that, but President Bush asked that the provision requiring the illegals to pay back taxes be removed. Is my info incorrect, has there been a change?

Now that they've made it known what they plan to do, what's to stop the Senate from adding an amendment stripping the back taxes from the bill before it hits the House? The taxes have been an issue for the Mexicans anyway, so that would make them happy.

During a private gathering at the Capitol Hill Club last week, Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) referred to the bill as “a piece of s---,” according to reports.

:-D

Good to see some Republicans haven’t gone RINO or Libertarian.

I received a questionaire from Boehner yesterday. Filled it out completely. In the comments section I noted the House GOP had to secure the border and kill this latest addition of Amnesty before I’d donate another dime.
