Today is the Cloture Vote on Immigration Bill [first cloture vote fails; 2nd cloture vote fails]
7 June 2007 | Gulf War One

Posted on 06/07/2007 6:17:41 AM PDT by Gulf War One

This is the homestretch.

Call and e-mail your senators today, Republicans and Democrats, urging them not to table debate on this critical piece of legislation.

It deserves a fair and open debate of all ramifications. To do otherwise is unamerican.

Ask them to vote "NO" on cloture.

Keep bumping this to the top.

Today is the day.

Hold on. Arm twisting and vote changing time. Watch closely.

That's right. It aint over until the fat lady is singing her big ole heart out.

Well Jay “global socialism” Rockefeller for all just voted no. So let the posturing begin.

Spector a true and loyal bandito to the bitter end. And did Kyl just bail?

The No’s are now running away with the cowardly lot of them. Even Trent Traitor Lott has voted no. And this POS was just insulting the American people not long ago.

Caution, until the vote is closed it is possible for some of these horrid Senators of ours to change their votes again. But I think we have won this one.

That’s not a surprise about Landrieu. I’m a La. native. Mary’s not that hard core left. I really do believe Mary loves Louisiana and America too much for this crap bill. I’m not being sarcastic either.

Are we winning this vote?!? I just got tuned into the thread, saw Fox said the bill was “dying”.

This is McCain’s legacy right here.
Major Presidential contender UNTIL he sold out his border-state and the country with this shamnesty.
The fat lady sings for him and for once I hope the media jump ugly on a Republican. He has thumbed his nose at us long enough.
