Here’s the entire article which after reading, I quickly called McConnell’s office and told him that I didn’t like my conservative senators threatened and that if he wants a fight, he’s got it.
“Senate conservatives have been warned by Republican leaders that they must either accept a series of largely symbolic floor votes on a handful of amendments to the immigration reform legislation or see themselves shut out of the process altogether when the chamber resumes work on the bill later this year, GOP lawmakers and aides said Tuesday. The warning came as President Bush met privately with Senate Republicans in an effort to restart immigration talks that stalled last week after a failed effort by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) to end debate on the controversial measure,” Roll Call reports
“Although Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), Minority Whip Trent Lott (R-Miss.) and other leaders voted against several cloture motions late last week, they are pressing their Members to accept a deal under which Republicans could offer about a dozen amendments with a set time for debate. But leadership also has made it clear that if conservatives do not agree to the deal, they run the risk of losing their seat at the negotiating table.”
"Minority Whip". LOL. Cheerleader Boy doesn't look or act as though he could ward off Silky Pony in a hair-pulling contest.
