This in not all of them. I have bad hearing and tinny speakers so there may be one or two errors in here. Some Senators' names are my best guess.

[SeafoodGumbo]

They’re still being announced.

[org.whodat]

That’s the way it is today in the us senate they have started calling jokes amendments.

[SeafoodGumbo]

Hutchinson.

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

Thanks.

[pissant]

Touchback my ass. Deport the damn illegals.

[SeafoodGumbo]

AYEs get 53. I think the NOs got 42.

Pitifull.

[SeafoodGumbo]

“Pitifull”...it’s also pitiful.

[nyconse]

Who pays for this ‘touch back’ I wonder...most likely the hardworking taxpay who will pay for medical, food stamps schools etc. So, they will get an all expense trip back to their country of origin-courtesy of the taxpayers.

[org.whodat]

“Pitifull”...it’s also pitiful.

So there were 53 shame votes, how do all those dumb a-- hold office.

[TaxxMann]

And how will it be enforced? If we can’t DEPORT them, how we gonna REPORT them ?

[kjhm]

they voted to table (kill) the bill. Look for this to happen to all conservative amendments. Have you noticed that there are no amendments under consideration from Jeff Sessions.

[SirJohnBarleycorn]

“Touchback” is a fig leaf that changes nothing of importance.

[TommyDale]

No, this was the Hutchison Amendment. I have been watching these weasels for the past hour or so. I would like to reach out and slap Harry Reid really hard. What a bunch of slimy scumbags.

[TaxxMann]

The vote was to table this amendment ?

HELP for the office-bound, por favor.

[bikerMD]

I’m watching CSpan now. Looks like a bunch of old white guys standing around hoping nobody figures out what they’re doing.

[SeafoodGumbo]

Thank you. That bears repeating, and I should have made it clear that it was a vote to remove the amendment.
