Live Thread: Senate Amnesty Debate (CRITICAL 2ND CLOTURE VOTE TODAY!) Woo hoo!! It's DEAD!!
The U.S. Senate with Free Republic Input | June 28, 2007 | truthkeeper

Posted on 06/28/2007 6:25:57 AM PDT by truthkeeper

Here we are again my friends, hopefully for the last debate thread on this particular monstrous legislation. Proceedings are supposed to begin at 9:30 a.m. EST, with the cloture vote being taken at 10:30 a.m.

On a personal note, you've all been wonderful in your passion, vigilance, and commitment to the principles on which our country was founded. If I have to be in a foxhole, I want to be in it with you guys.

Feinstein blathering on about how the problem is that opponents dont understand the bill.

No dear, we DO understand it. That’s the problem.

If we can’t round them up, then how does the MSM find enough of them to do an opinion poll?

Rush mentioned that yesterday.

So much for living in the shadows...........

So it’s only about the vote...not the value. I can’t believe this chick.

KILL BILL
__________________________________________________________

Look, everyone keeps saying Kill Bill. But we are losing time. The vote on cloture is in 1/2 hour or so, and if this Bill fellow is a pro-amnesty Senator someone needs to kill him quickly or he’ll be able to vote for cloture.

Sorry if I’m repeating this. Senator Collins said today on 560 WGAN she’s voting no. And that the 12-20 million illegals should not become citizens. I’m still not convinced until the votes are cast but I’m a bit more positive about things.

That bi@ch Feinstein is on now. Talking about threats and the fact that the rubes just don’t understand.

Our very own House of Lords.

Question for the Founding Fathers: Did you all have a screw loose?!

I don’t know about you but my ear is sore from the phone and my arm aches from the computer. I will be glad when this is over. I might get some good sleep. I hope it goes well—I have my fingers crossed. Blue is my favorite color also.

"Ensign is a no"

I hope his conversion sticks. I wonder how far Bush will go? Will he did out the FBI files, too? If bribes don't work, he has other tools.

Feinstein talking now.

Rejecting a flawed bill is not doing nothing - it’s preventing a catastrophe.

Feinstein: American people "do not understand this Bill" I wonder if she understands it? Has she even read it?

"I don't know what to say to people who are against this bill."

but with the nascent atempt brewing to bring back the fairness doctrine..well, all those Freepers who said it was OK if the GOP lost the last election..

The GOP members are the ones leading the charge with the Fairness Doctrine. I wouldn't be surprised at all if it wasn't Lott and McCain that is pushing the idea.

Don't delude yourself into believing that there is any difference between senate democrats and at least 60% of the senate republicans - especially the leadership.

They are just like professional wrestlers - they create a phony public feud and then they get the people in the two camps riled up. Backstage, of course, they are all friends.

The difference is that we know that the fights in professional wrestling are staged. For some reason, it is still not clear to many people that the Senate is as well.

I just threw up a little bit in my mouth.

They are all arguing their way into the logical conclusion of building a fence. We don’t have to wait 10 years to build a fence if this POS doesn’t pass!!!!
