Bush has no power in this debate.
Reid has all the power. It takes 60 senators to stop a filibuster and reid said he will filibuster any bill that doesn't have amnesty.
If Sensennbrenner himself were president he would still need hillary and reid's approval without the 60 senate votes to break a filibuster.
The senate sucks. Don't you remember the estrada nomination where the dems all besides ben nelson filibustered.
Bush is irrelevenent in this debate. Harry Reid is the major power player on capital hill. No legislation can get done without his approval.
Republicans having 55 senate seats is useless. You need 60 senate seats to take the power away from reid.
Without the 60 senate seats the senate and thus congress is in gridlock. There is no majority with the filibuster.
"I'd like to see a congressional bill written to crack down on George Bush!"
Yes! It is going to be interesting (for lack of a better word) to see how El Presidente reacts to the massive protests by the illegals. Wouldn't it be refreshing to see the immigration laws upheld?
Too pathetic.
