This is the guy who voted for amnesty at first...then when the bill was going down, VERY late in the vote, he switched.

What a man of conviction. < \sarcasm>

Are you talking about the procedural vote earlier in the week or the previous bill? I wouldn’t use the earlier procedural vote as a guidepost as many who opposed the bill voted in that so they could get to the amendment vote today and kill it here.

He had a Jean Kerry moment, he voted for it then voted against it.

Now is not the time to let up. we need to pressure our politicians to enforce the existing immigration laws including deporting illegal aliens, building the fence and prosecuting businesses who do business with illegal aliens. The link below is a ping list to pay attention for other questionable legislation being considered in Congress.

He covered his bases. He voted for the bill before he voted against the bill.

I dub thee Senator Sam “Slimy” Brownback. Nice vote change there at the end when you thought nobody was looking.

So he figured this out fifteen minutes after he cast his "AYE" vote, just seconds before voting ended????
