I think the key is Mrs. Chao, who has told her husband to deal with her employer.

Even a decision to return the bill to the Senate floor does not guarantee its passage, given the intense opposition. "We've got people out there on both sides really ready to burn the place down," said Sen. Trent Lott of Mississippi, the second-ranking Republican. "I don't think we ought to let that happen."

Will someone tell me why Frist was behind Lott becoming #2 in the Senate? It is ridiculous the spineless Senator is back in leadership.

"We're going to show the American people that the promises in this bill will be kept," Bush said, two days after launching a personal rescue mission.

Let me guess, that 4.4 billion is already allocated for a wall which has been approved via Congress but will cover the costs of this debacle without a wall being built.

I just have three words I would like to say to the U.S. Senate Bring it on.

We are going to find out one way or the other which of these Senators cares for the American People and who cares for violating American Laws.

I would rather see it sooner rather than later.That way we can plan on kicking their butts out of power.The Very thing they crave.

Comprehensive immigration reform is all about inundating the USA with many tens of millions of 3rd world immigrants. Everything else is window dressing.

It doesn’t matter whether we have amnesty, new border security, guest workers or anything else.

In the end, the current 12-20 million illegals soon will each be able to bring in their family members. Add this to all the anchor babies and we’ll be overrun with 3rd world folks in numbers that will sink us.

When the courts and ACLU get on the fines and penalties, bye bye funding for border security. It is too punitive, don’t you know? You didn’t buy this ruse did you?

No, Trent, only the bad guys want to burn THE PLACE down. The good guys will be content with a fence to keep the bad guys out.

"To answer these concerns I support an amendment that will provide $4.4 billion in immediate additional funding for securing our borders and enforcing our laws at the work site,"

What, to augment the financing already approved to build a barrier which was never built?

This is rapidly going from politically comical to personally frustrating.

Gee whiz Senator Lott why bring back the bill then? He hears the people telling him that he ought not sell our country down the river but proceeds full steam ahead. Sh*t happens Senator Lott and I hope you get your fair share of it.

“aided by President Bush’s support for a quick $4.4 billion aimed at “securing our borders and enforcing our laws at the work site.””

Lip service. WE’RE NOT THAT STUPID, MR. PRESIDENT.

Officials who spoke on condition of anonymity
Precise details...were not disclosed.
The officials who described the emerging plan did so on condition of anonymity, saying the negotiations had been conducted in private.

Who the hell do these senators think they are?,on both sides of the aisle.

It's time for a Third Party to get some votes,and one of them will get mine in 2008.

Tony Snow's spin on the $4.4 billion (from another article) is as follows:

"The $4.4 billion would be spent immediately and then repaid out of fees and fines collected through the path to citizenship program and the guest-worker program, Mr. Snow said."

There is a disconnect here. Last week, Kennedy, Durbin, et al, said medical and social services required for the immigrants would be paid "out of fees and fines collected through the path to citizenship program and the guest-worker program".

Well, which is it? Paying for border security or medical / social services?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm
