FOX reporting Immigration Bill on Death Bed

Major Garrett has sources on both sides of the aisle telling him we can write the bill's obituary. Roll call going on now.

[LS]

No as in “no” against cloture? Or no against the bill? As I understood it, “no” against cloture is good because it means they can keep debating it ad infinitum and adding ridiculous amendments to it that will kill it.

[neodad]

Y’all are a bunch of racist bigots! /jorge

[freespirited]

I caught the following nays from the dark side:

Bingaman, Rockefeller, McCaskill, Landrieu

(Just turned to CSPAN2, so the list is very incomplete).

[sofaman]

No vote tally on C-Span...warner votes against. There’s a shock..

[BigLittle]

Still on death bed? Reach down and strangle it! This must not pass!

[50mm]

This POS is headed for defeat!

[CindyDawg]

Well the night shift here, better watch them. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if they didn’t try to sneak back during the early hours for a “shhhh” vote.

[Cinnamon]

**bbbbZZZZAAAAPPP!!!* it’s dead Jim... it’s dead,

[lag along]

no against cloture

[golfisnr1]

Even my Liberal Senator McCaskill from MO. voted NO.

[ErnBatavia]

A couple of very disgusting pics...of our little taxpayer-paid elite club.

[freespirited]

No against cloture. Yes they can keep debating it, but I believe Reid says if this cloture vote fails, the bill is FINI.

Garrett said they might bring it up later in the year but he doubted it.

[Shelayne]

Yeehaw!

It’s dead now, but I fear a “Friday the 13th” type of revival. We must stay alert.

But for now...Whew!

[puroresu]

####They think we will forget.####

I hope a stinging defeat soon wipes those arrogant smirks off their faces.

[LS]

So let’s all understand: the BILL is not dead? Cloture means that they will NOT end debate, meaning they can keep adding amendments that will (we hope) destroy it. Am I correct in this?

[The Sons of Liberty]

Let's all say a prayer - and keep a tally of the RINOs that supported it.

It's not over - They'll try again.

[Reaganwuzthebest]

Excellent news, it looks like amnesty is dead for this year. :)

Now it's time for Ted Kennedy to sit down and STFU. He's been screwing up the immigration policy in this country long enough.

[lag along]

yesterday the crooked ole man from Nevada said he would pull the measure from this years congress if debate was not shut off today.

[LS]

Yeah, but not against the "bill," only against ending debate on the bill, correct?

Folks am I wrong here? To the extent that the Dems are losing, more debate likely means more "poison pill" amendments, which will kill the bill . . . but it could also mean more "compromise."

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Sounds good to me. But keep an eye out for any signs of revival.
