CSPAN | 6/7/07 | Freespirited

Posted on 06/07/2007 6:01:39 PM PDT by freespirited

Tonight's cloture motion has just gone down to defeat. No where near the 60 yea votes needed to cut off debate.

Harry now pontificating on Senate floor.

“There’s something very fishy about this whole thing. The proponents were frenetic about getting it shoved through...”

There was supposedly an ammendment in the bill to “fast track” the whole North American Union mess....

....just a guess

He never promised to close the borders and deport 12 million illegal aliens.

It was his sworn duty to enforce the laws of the United States, including immigration laws, whether he agreed with them or not. He totally failed to perform this solemn duty. That will be his legacy.

Guess what? The promises made re this bill won’t be adhered to either.

That’s one of the problems.

Sessions is a gem, Emily. I’m so jealous... since I’m living in NJ with a RAT cadaver and a RAT ventriloquist’s dummy “representing” me. I’ve lived here for over 30 years now and I’ve never had a Republican senator here.

To heck with his legacy. If someone would have told me I’d feel this way just a short time ago, I wouldn’t have believed him. I cannot wait to see him walking down the Whitehouse steps and shaking hands with the, hopefully, conservative that just took the Oath of Office and MEANS it!

He promised to build the fence and only 2 miles have been built.

BUILD THE FENCE!

"You know, I have yet to have it explained to me why Bush pushed this bill."

To PO his remaining two dozen supporters. He's aiming for single digit approval ratings - and accomplishing it swiftly...

News Flash: Pathway to citizenship is amnesty.

News Flash: Letting them stay here without permanent deportation is amnesty, too.

Jorge should have something to say about this by Monday. No doubt, it will blister his base's hineys. Maybe he shouldn't be allowed to speak at next year's Republican convention...

He succeeded with me. Just one more, and he’s made his goal.

“There is nothing wrong with people becoming citizens.”

Correct. We have a process for people to become citizens...without being granted amnesty.....without jumping the line.....without illegally crossing our borders.

Yeah, but at least there's a tiny possibility that one of them might see the light, since they're not such bad guys at heart. I've got Feinstein and Boxer. What they heck can I say to them to change their opinion on anything?

Hyperbolic excess.

Bush is awesome.

His base is pathetic.

No, he didn't. He did however promise to FAITHFULLY EXECUTE THE LAW!
