I can't wait for this preposterous bill to be finished.
It's an insult to my folks who had to jump through hoops to become U.S. Citizens
And if any of these maggots get to stay here, I demand that they be required to learn English pronto!!!!
I hope it’s dead.
The very idea of any of these mexicans doing anything swiftly if they are given any concessions on this matter is ridiculous. They are not in the business of trying to be Americans, they want America to be mexican. So look out.
Die you dastardly bill, die!
It sickens me to hear the quotes Trent Lott throws out.
What a LOSER
My wife had to get a visa and it cost $3,000 with a doctor visit, a police check in her country, my tax records and a lot of waiting. No way illegals should be legalized. Build a fence and start sending them back, starting with work violators and criminals.
Limbo is not good enough. It needs to be burned in the fires of hell.
Forget R.I.P.................I want the thing to R.I.H. (rot in hades)
This POS said the same thing before the cloture vote so I don't believe him.
Even if this bill is shelved there will be other attempts (in the dark) to pass similar amnesty. We must remain vigilant.
Latin for, "Rot in Hell"?
Thanks for posting this update...

Uh... don’t you mean “right away”?? :-)
The problem is the fact that we still need them to do something, otherwise the border is still broken and we're still stuck with an increasing burden of illegals.
Even if this pile of steaming crap dies...I’ll never forgive any republican or democrap who signed on.
If big business wants a dirt cheap work force so bad that it sells out American sovereignty...it can go to hell!
Bush is racing to get ahead of Carter as the worst president in U.S. history.
American. Same as me.
I don't want to see a "second class citizen who does the sh-t work".
And I don't want to see in every person with a brown skin a "criminal who broke into my country and won't leave".
Why would Bush put that mark on every person with the wrong skin color?
If people are here illegally, they should go home. Making these lawbreakers legal doesn't solve the problem, it renames it. No one will be fooled for long.
Besides, what's the hurry? If there's a need for new laws ( and that's debatable) it's worth doing right.
Slavery-lite, second class citizens and the kind of elitism that's gotten Europe in so much trouble isn't our way. Why am I not surprised that Lott doesn't "get" this?
If 60 senators, in essence, voted to kill this, they must be getting a real ear full from their constituents and all the stories about Americans supporting this are total fabrications.
It dies when the fence is built, the BP is staffed and run competently, the legal immigration system is flushed out, and Jorge Arbusto is retired.
They must've used The Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique.
