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.

“Lucifer is contrite that his deceptive powers failed him.”

The devil has not been restrained. He’s been temporarily thwarted. Reid is now speaking about hope in the COMING WEEKS.

SEE!!!

Reid: There are ways we can do this...

He's not going to let it die.

Never believe, trust, or vote for a 'Rat or a RINO.

We need a list of all RINO’s who supported this bill so that we can give them even more of an earful!

Reid was "trying to get cloture". So, Harry still looks forward to passing the bill. There are ways we can do this. An agreement on a number of amendments. I will do my very best to have more GOP amendments and dem amendments. Hopefully, we can do that in the next several weeks. Lots of support for this BILL ON THE OUTSIDE. People worked very, very hard on this bill. per Harry Reid. Reid's colleague "shed some tears".

THEY ARE NOT GOING TO STOP. They are going to go behind closed doors AGAIN? No, no, no.

Excellent beginning. I wouldn’t mind if he added his resignation at the end.
