HuffingtonPost ^
Posted on 05/21/2013 9:22:13 PM PDT by fifedom
All Democrats on the committee, along with Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) and gang of eight Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.), voted in favor of the bill, which will now go to the Senate floor.
The crowd in the room erupted into applause when the final vote tally was read, rising to their feet and chanting "Yes we can!" then "Si se puede!"

The fix is in. This is going to pass the Senate.
Now our only hope is for Boner not to bring it up for a vote in the House since a majority of Republicans oppose it.
Fat chance.
All you can do is laugh to keep from crying. Like Dandy Don used to sing on Monday Night Football. "Put out the lights, the party's over."
If this passes, it's over. For the U.S. of A.

This isn’t exactly the proper climate to pass a damned thing of the Democrats.

Hm, at what point can the States declare the Federal Government to be treasonous (all they have to do is show the FedGov is a: waging war on the States, or b: giving aid and comfort to enemies of the States).

That was always the plan. The Senate Republicans in the Senate are too stupid to see the writing on the wall. The Senate passes the Bill, the House blocks it. Then Republicans are blamed as it was killed by the Pubbies in the House. Bingo-all sorts of new Dem voters.

If this damn thing passes it will be the death of what remains of our economy and our country.
This makes me so angry and then they don’t even have the brains to learn the words in English. Just one of many things that upset me about the illegals that come here now vs. the ones from 40 or 30 years ago.

All of them are traitors. They think we will ignore this as they throw us IRS crumbs and scandals. They damn well want US Mexico to be one. We are strangers in our own country.
To: originalbuckeye
might as well be blamed for a sheep as for a goat. worrying about being blamed is the last thing the GOP needs to do, because they’ll get ragged on by Dimdems anyhow.

I thought GOOBers in the 8 Gangbangers were going to force the illegals to speak English in exchange for welfare and other freebies. It looks like the Republicans are lying to us now. Hey! It works for the DemocRATS, the GOOBers might as well give it a try.

Foreigners in the Senate chanting in a foreign language “yes we can”. Yes we can overthrow the United States. These senators are disloyal and a hair from treason.
