[no dems]

O.K. Freepers, here’s the list of Pubbies who voted with the Dems Thursday to give Social Security benefits to Illegal Aliens.

Brownback (KS)

Chafee (RI)

DeWine (OH)

Graham (SC)

Hagel (NE)

Lugar (IN)

Martinez (FL)

McCain (AZ)

Specter (PA)

Stevens (AK)

Voinovich (OH)

I must admit that I was shocked by Brownback’s and Lugar’s votes.

Over on CNN (never thought I'd say such)Dobbs is givin'en hell, a whole hour of hell every weeknight during Brit's hour.

Bingo. I've switched from Brit to Lou Dobbs at the 5 o'clock hour. I'm so used to having watched Brit Hume all the time that occasionally I forget to switch to Lou, like I did tonite, which makes me mad at myself. Luckily, both programs are repeated later on in the night, so you really don't have to miss either. But I am so PO'd at Brit and his Allstars and their support of the immigration bill, that I can't stand to watch their roundtable when the issue of immigration comes up. I'd like to bop Fred Barnes in the nose. He's the worst of them all on this topic. And I'm real surprised that Brit agrees w/the Prez's point of view on immigration. Guess he isn't as conservative as I thought he was; either that, or he's like the Bushbot Freepers who go along w/anything the Prez wants.

My old Senator Hagel (NE) is no surprise. Ever since that speech he gave on campus about how we needed to reinstate the draft and start drafting my generation I have disliked that scum. This is just another reason on top of a long list.

How can you realistically claim that Republicans with ACU ratings of either close to or well over 90% are RINOs?

[DoughtyOne]

If someone were to tell you that there was a nuclear plot to destroy New York, and all you had to do to fix it was to get your elected officials to enforce our nation's laws, would that make you a single issue voter.

If twenty million illegal aliens are naturalized, each of them can bring over a number of close family members. What's 4 times 20 million?

I care about a number of issues, but if this nation has been so altered by a set of people that can be bought for the price of a few government programs, what good will the nation be?

Those that use the one issue tag don't qualify to participate in this debate as far as I am concerned.

To collect SS there must be money paid to the number account. If the illeagals use a bogus account they can never collect any thing against that account. If they become legal, they must have a new SS number and deposited funds accrue from that date.

And also, when income is reported on a SS#, you can bet the IRS will take note when the real holder of the SS# does not report that income, (since they did not know about it).

[HoustonCurmudgeon]

If it lists them, I'd like to see what issues these two veered off the beaten track on. It could prove informative.

The ACU always lists the 16 - 22 votes that it counts each year and it is good to look into. One year one of my Senators - Hutchison of Texas - was much lower than usual. She had voted against the ACU four times out of 18 or 20. I looked up the votes and one was to close a couple of bases in Texas which she HAD to oppose and another I agreed with her position. With those two she was back in her normal 90% range.

Specter is a Democrat already. He talks and walks like a Democrat.

[darkangel82]

He's always been one, in fact he started out as one.

[DoughtyOne]

No, the joke is on your children and grandchilren who will be stuck with the effects of Brownbeck's lunatic vote.

[muleskinner]

What's Lugar's problem? And Graham, I didn't think he was going to be sucking up to McCain on everything. Thought he was smarter than that.

[DoughtyOne]

I agree with her opposing the base closure. For my buck, we can close down a few welfare offices instead.

[HarleyLady27]

I didn't say I wasn't voting for him did I????

I said what the mood here is in PA.

[flaglady47]

"I will look into it, but while we can trash these three on immigration, they are consistently conservative senators."

Yeah, except for on the really big issues where the vote really counts. Then you can count on them to stab conservatives in the back. Especially McInsane and Hagel, followed by Specter and Graham. They are the worst.

[snoringbear]

It did not surprise me to see Graham's name show up on the list. That guy is a pure RINO for sure. I am surprised that the good folks of SC keep voting him back in office. I could make a few more comments about Mr. Graham but won't as I will respect FR's "no personal attacks" policy".

[R.W.Ratikal]

Check the records. These same RINOs almost always vote with the communists. No surprises here.

[muleskinner]

As California is now a Black Hole for Republicans in general and conservatives in particular, I have to look elsewhere for hope. Even my Congressman and State reps are democrat, and Republicans are out numbered 2-1 in my district.

[slowhand520]

Wow Brownback is really un-conservative-ing himself

[OKIEDOC]

I have watched the CSPAN Senate debates and have new respect for Sessions, Coburn, Inhofe, Kyl, Cronyn, Grassley and a few others.

This immigration bill actually awards illegal aliens more than current citizens.

I hope that all the old people will wake up and smell the stench coming out of the Senate debate on S2611.

If, and I am praying that this dose not pass, it passes anyone thinking of retiring on Social Security will rue the day these turncoats voted this into law.

I wrote to AARP and asked where they stand on this issue and the reply was nothing more than a computer generated piece of on-the-fence garbage email.
