Uh-huh. Now, a Democrat rides in to save the day, Don Quixote-style, after the public is furious. The Democrats will try to put the blame exclusively on the RNC/GOP to split the Conservative vote.

We need to clean the roaches out of the RNC/GOP, not blindly storm off into a third party.

ND is a border state that could weigh significantly in future Roe v. Wade battles, so Dorgan’s been tagged as the one to be strong on borders, this week.

I heard Clair McCaskil, I know I didn’t spell it right,democrat and I was cheering! She said if we would throw these company’s CEOs in jail we could fix the immigration problem for almost no money! dang I was impressed.

I heard Dorgan trash it last week some time.

You’re following on CSPAN now? Seems like the immigration thread is a bit slow. Is there a main thread they forgot to sidebar?

AMEN! It will take effort, but can be done. Grassroots is where it is at.

Did you hear Ted Kennedy’s speech, shortly before Dorgan’s?

It was fear tactics and melodrama about the downtrodden “undocumenteds”.

Ha,ha, it’s the same damn speech he’s used for decades.The Chappaquidick swim instructor has been pushing to get poor stupid people into this country for years. Hmmmmmmmm,wonder why ???

Don’t you think they are saying these things simply to pander.. do you honestly believe the dems believe this?

Some might. There's a subset of the Rats that are fiercely pro-union and pro-"labor", for lack of a better term. Dorgan and avowed Socialist Bernie Sanders from Vermont are two of them. They're still borderline Commies and nanny-staters, but they're coming at this bill from the anti-capitalist side of things.

I don't think it's so much that people like Dorgan oppose shamnesty. They'd probably love a total blanket amnesty for every illegal in the country. What they don't like is the creation of what they see as a permanent underclass to be exploited. And, of course, they don't like that eeeeeeevil businessmen will make eeeeeeeevil profits. They're wealth redistributors, after all.

“Uh-huh. Now, a Democrat rides in to save the day, Don Quixote-style, after the public is furious.”

Notice the post that came in just below yours. The poster says that they heard Senator Dorgan trash the bill about a week ago.

Anyway, Senator Dorgan has a solid record in support of labor.

Well, gee, I guess no good Republican senators could have done the same?

They sh*t in their nest and they will pay for it.

It appears that “Republican” and “Democrat” are now outdated monikers: it is now simply pro-America and anti-America (globalist).

We should start a campaign to bring back our jobs to Americans.

“They all want to reduce us to serfdom. The Democrats want us to be serfs of the state. The globalist Republicans want us to be serfs of the multinational corporations.”

Sadly that’s the most accurate concise statement on the matter.

Economic interests!!!!!! B/S!!!!!!

How many of the good senator's constituents and/or supporters are on the economic dole called "support payments" paid by the USDA?

His voters hired these illegals and pay them squat for wages!!!!!!!!!

Yes. And Reid referring to the illegal immigrants said, “We need to bring all the undocumented Americans out of the shadows.” The “undocumented Americans”! No, they are illegal non-American immigrants who have broken our laws!
