We can only hope this bill dies....long enough so we can get a president in office that cares about our sovereignty and who would veto any such bill.

I do not believe it is killed yet unless something changed after todays Senate session which ended after midnight Eastern time. My understanding is they will vote on one more amendment tomorrow by Sen. Coburn, 2nd degree amendments until 10:00 a.m., followed by a cloture vote.

Just before they finished for the night, Sen. Sessions blasted the amnesty bill and its supporters. He said he didn’t support the bill. He was great!!

Here’s the dirt:

1. This is a feint, a ploy to get everybody against Amnesty to reduce pressure. DON’T. MORE PRESSURE. POUR IT ON.

2. This is a sham, a ploy to get Republicans angry with the GOP while the DNC players sit back. Remember, the DNC ran a bunch of ‘strong borders’ candidates last November...hold their feet to the fire now and forevermore.

3. This BILL continues to be a fraud, with any amendments as just so many different flavors of icing on a pile of sewage. It’s the BILL ITSELF, not the amendments or any loopholes, that must be quashed.

Enforce the laws already on the books, you blustering, weak, blowhards.

If we really need more foreign workers, FIX the legal immigration system. Too hard? STOP punishing legal immigrants and rewarding illegal immigrants. You idiots. You worthless, elected, IDIOTS.

The Oligarchs and Dictators of the world are LAUGHING at you, you stupid Senators and Representatives and you President. They're LAUGHING at your WEAKNESS.

"BwaaHaaahHaaaah, we'll NEVER have to change our ways. The dumbassed USA will continue to subsidize our corruption indefinitely, we can send all our ignorant-masses problem to them."

"Not only that, but the Wahabbis will bribe W Millions of Dollars for his Presidential Library, just as they have done for Presidents for decades. Then he will travel to the Middle East and give speeches at $200,000 a pop.

And some Saudi Wahabbi Prince will nudge him with an elbow, wink wink, nod nod, "You wouldn't mind if we build another Wahabbi School on your soil, would you?"

"Of course not! Islam is a Religion of Peace! Bring it here!"

"Wink wink, nod nod......everything is wonderful! No problems at all!"

Drudge is playing the attention whore tonight. In the morning he’ll probably make the contrary prediction, to get the other side’s attention.

Moment of truth for US immigration bill (Reid calls for Thursday morning cloture vote)
AFP on Breitbart.com ^ | 6/7/07 | AFP

Posted on 06/06/2007 10:22:11 PM PDT by NormsRevenge

A landmark attempt to reform US immigration laws and grant a path to citizenship for around 12 million illegal immigrants faces its most crucial test yet in a moment of high political drama Thursday.

Democratic Senate Majority leader Harry Reid has scheduled a device known as a cloture vote on limiting time for debate on the package, in an effort to force it through the Senate this week.

Republicans, many of whom are under intense pressure from conservative supporters over the bill, have however complained that Reid’s move would thwart a sheaf of amendments they wish to debate, and want more time.

Reid needs 60 votes to move the bill forward in the closely divided Senate. He has said he would shelve the legislation if the cloture vote fails.

..

Republican Senator Jeff Sessions, who opposes much of the bill’s content, said support for the measure was beginning to fade.

“I think enthusiasm is waning for the legislation,” Sessions told reporters.

“If it goes through, it is going to be limping through without the kind of momentum it started out with.”

If it does indeed die, would it be in poor taste to celebrate with a bottle of tequila?

Let’s make sure there are a flood of faxes waiting for these quislings in their senate offices tomorrow morning.

You can send faxes for free at NumbersUSA.
