DRUDGE - REPORTS: IMMIGRATION BILL ON THE BRINK OF COLLAPSE IN SENATE... DEVELOPING...
DRUDGE ^ | DRUDGE (or Breitbart)

Posted on 06/06/2007 10:02:57 PM PDT by doug from upland

That is the headline on Drudge and all he has for now. Since Matt is undoubtedly in bed on the East Coast, we can probably thank Andrew Breitbart.

The immigration bill is on the brink of collapse in the Senate. Let's hope for some more developments soon.

I don't think they are ALL losers, but such a large proportion will be losers they will so far outweigh the winners, the winners will be insignificant. That is what our politicians want, a bunch of dependent, malleable, socialists who will do whatever the Oligarch class tells them to do. Otherwise our politicians would not be so eager and underhanded to get them legalized, even the criminal class of the illegals, our politicians are so EAGER to get criminal class legalized.

Why is that? Because Leftists THRIVE on chaos. When Leftists create CHAOS they can be Superman Coming to the Rescue. They can impose draconian law on us, gun control, high taxes, speech control, all for the good of the dumb, ignorant masses. Control. Control. Control. Power. Power. Power.

Many of our politicians have visited the opulence of the Oligarchs...and they kinda....just kinda....LIKE that idea....Ya know?

Yes, here in MT tester slithered in w/1729 votes out of 250,000 cast. It is well known that he has his lips permanently sewn to schumer’s seat warmer. If he votes for this amnesty bill and it passes = recall election.

Good night. You all remember how our Republican politicians, before their loss last year, so casually described themselves as "In Power", rather than describing themselves as "In Charge" or as "Serving our constituents". That says it all. And many of us digged on them describing themselves as "In Power." Power. Power.

Hmmmmm. Just Hmmmmm.

Sessions is very bright indeed, he’s simply a gentlemanly southern speaker. And I’ve seen him perform outstandingly at Judiciary nomination hearings. He’s the one who apologized to Alito’s wife, I believe, after the dems trashed Judge Alito.

Yesterday they voted against Cornyn's amendment to disqualify a larger class of felons and absconders from Z visas.

Kennedy asserted that the amnedment must be rejected to "protect confidentiality".

Specter, was in his prime.

In his now-typical dip into the 5th dimension of senile dementia, Specter said we must allow felons to apply for Z visas because they deserve due process (rememeber, they're already convicted felons), and that absconders deserve "detailed review" of their cases by the immigration court (to be an absconder you must already have gone through an extensive immigration review and appeal process). But for unknown reasons Specter believes the Z visa warrants yet another appeal.

One gets the impression that Specter believes there are unlimited judicial resources to get dragged into (a second) review and 12 to 20 million Z visa applications.

Remember Yogi’s admonition:

IT AINT OVER TILL ITS OVER.

Only when I see this abomination killed, shot, burned and smashed into a million unrecoverable pieces, will I relax.

Until then, keep the pressure on to get this abomination of a bill destroyed forever.

The War on Terror has become the "War to bring Terror to America"

Insane Senators laugh at their cruel, vicious imposition of the "Infectious Hepatitis, Incurable Tuberculosis
and Morgellons disease, Typhoid, Cholera, Plague, Measles, Mumps, Leprosy,
Dengue fever, and Polio Importation Act of 2007" on the previously disease-free American public.



* T.B. was virtually absent in Virginia until in 2002.

* Washington, D.C., T.B. had a meteoric rise of 188 percent ... traced to illegal aliens from Mexico.

230.1The Queens, New York, Health Department attributed 81 percent
of new T.B. cases in 2001 to immigrants, with 42 percent of all new T.B. cases ascribed to the foreign born.

* T.B. outbreaks afflicted schoolteachers and children in Michigan and adults and kids in Texas.
The teachers and kids caught it at school from the coughing children of illegal aliens.

* In Minnesota, the police suddenly came down with M.D.R.-T.B.
The cops caught it in their patrol cars when they arrested illegal aliens
who coughed in their faces.

* T.B. erupted in Portland, Maine, and DelRay Beach, Florida, directly traced to illegals.

Control the borders; then we can talk.

I like that! Captures the issue perfectly.

It's really not that hard to see, if you read a little history. There are plenty of Freepers who can see what's going on.

"Leftists thrive on chaos". I will give that credit to a former city councilwoman in my town who was voted out of office a few years ago. The woman who took her place has the same countenance as WA State's governor, that greasy, oily, lying countenance, who has done nothing she promised to do when she ran, instead has advocated slimy Leftist policies such as porn surfing in Public Libraries (what is the positive educational outcome of using my tax dollars to surf porn in the local educational institution, hmmmmm?) and you know the rest.

These Leftist a-holes are as predictable as the day is long. Leftists both Democrat and Republican, are lowlife slimeballs through and through. (I'll stop preaching to the choir now.)

Couldn’t happen to a worse bill—although CFR is close.

Ironically, Kennedy is co-sponsoring the “Comprehensive TB Elimination Act of 2007.” What’s wrong with this picture?

I’ll believe it when I see it . These bums ( Dem and Rep )want this bill to pass . They don’t give 2 flying sh*ts what the PEOPLE want. I suggest a national boycott and taking it to the streets on this one. Right now , even if they knock the bill down , they will just re word it and put it out there again . We HAVE to make a stance. They are NOT going to kill this bill unless we make a visible action against it . Do you seriously think these b*stards care about our letters , calls and faxes ? Keep dreaming . Only a drastic demonstration will make any difference.

If this thing dies, it’s because of the Republicans in congress and the outrage of the American people.

My ire is directed at Democrats. They're the ones who want every immigrant they can get here. Legal or illegal, they don't care. All these marches and demonstrations don't have Republicans in them--they are supported by every left wing, Democrat group they can find.

This would never be killed if it weren't for Republicans.

INSANE bump! These nut jobs really are INSANE, and have no business being in charge of anything.
