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.

“And this means we need to keep calling. They are expecting us to back off now. We can’t do that.”

That is EXACTLY right.

Exactly!

Until this is dead, buried and a distant bad memory, we need to keep kicking them in the ass day and night.

We should keep up the momentum and do just that. Everyone start calling demanding our laws be upheld!

Wait! Wait! They are all swapping PORK for vote changes now!

I think they're all telling lobbyist jokes. It's all too chummy down there.

Let’s work on Jorge’s speach.

“My fellow citizens. Today marks a dark day in our history as a compassionate and caring country. We have failed the many hard working families who but only strive for a new beginning for prosperity.”
