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.
“Everyone on this thread celebrating the demise of this bill”
We celebrated the dimise of the Harriet Miers nomination
And look what we got...a much more qualified Supreme Court Justice.
Yes! He/she is finally starting to get it.
That just about sums it up. Sickening, isn’t it?
We did well but don’t celebrant yet guys. They will try ANYTHING to get this bill or another version of it to pass. They will try to sneak one through during July when half of America is on vacation and not paying attention. They want it bad and they will promise BIG PORK to those who voted against it today . Don’t let your guard down folks. We need to push for the enforcement of the PRESENT immigration laws.Don’t doubt anything at this point .
Nice job!
“Guess that Goober is just one of us ‘bigots’ after all.”
I bet “Goober” is over Teddy Kennedy’s house trying to console him.
After all Lindsey is IN A REAL BIND NOW.
New idea:
If you ever have one, it'll be lonesome
Indeed.
There are no prospects for increased border enforcement.
The border will remain more open than ever because of the failure of this bill.
It is a mere exercise in irrational anger.
There are no political solutions to illegal immigration which will not be denounced as SHAMNESTY.
Everyone here knows it.
Everyone here is perfectly willing to have Hillary Clinton as President for 8 years and the House and the Senate to be controlled by forever.
In that period of time immigration laws will not get tighter.
The irrationality of this group is astounding.
See, trying to change “Bushbot” to “border bot” just doesn’t work. The few remaining Bushbots are being led over the cliff because they still mindlessly worship one person. People concerned about the country see the entire picture, i.e. not just through one twisted politician’s eyes.
This has been consistently a 70 - 80 % issue all along, meaning it’s most of the country versus the elitists.
Graham voted “Yea”. Say grace over him. He’s toast.
I think the Democrat slogan for 2008 is
bring out the Border bots
You said it exactly right. Here is the word in bold for the President and the poobahs of the Republican Party establishment to see: BETRAYAL!!
The tears tattoos symbolize that he has murdered 2 people. Nic guy. I’d like to see his type move into Ted Kennedy’s neighborhood.
And yes, it is entirely possible to reasonably influence the appointment process.
There is no way a Dem congress is going to pass stricter immigration laws.
All minor measures of enforcement are doomed.
I think you and paris are on the same drugs.
There are no political solutions to illegal immigration
Enforcement of the present laws is a real good start .
And we are both out of jail.
This could be good.
Yep, sickening, lol!
May I suggest, then, that this really isn't the place for you?
