Here we are again my friends, hopefully for the last debate thread on this particular monstrous legislation. Proceedings are supposed to begin at 9:30 a.m. EST, with the cloture vote being taken at 10:30 a.m.
On a personal note, you've all been wonderful in your passion, vigilance, and commitment to the principles on which our country was founded. If I have to be in a foxhole, I want to be in it with you guys.

You know I lived in West Virginia. This is a state which is very poor. Say what you want Sen. Byrd has alway looked after the people in his state which is why they keep voting for him.

Sessions shot down on his point of order. Being lectured to by Dirty Harry for his rudeness. Obama says The Chair is allowed to give (his side) some leeway in time, although he didn’t give the NO side any leeway, did he?

Watching Harry Reid recount his family affairs re: immigration just points out how being a member of the Senate for 90% of them = it's all about ME! These guys (less Sessions, DeMint and a few others) should be ashamed of themselves. However, their performance on CSPAN proves that they have lost that sensibility.
Furthermore, I am now convinced, that if every citizen had to watch 2 hours of CSPAN coverage everyday, there would be an armed insurrection in DC within the first week. Absolutely deplorable.

I cannot take the extreme abuse of the president on these threads. Goodness knows Im mad at him over this but civility and reason has been ignored too much here by too many.Do you feel the same way about Benedict Arnold?

Hi, Mom. I pray you’re right!

Obama — we give some latitude to the leaders — Bravo Sierra — it is a set up he is there because he can be controlled.

Ok. Now Im confused. We dont want cloture? We do not want cloture. We want the Senators to vote NO.
A NO vote requires that debate continue. Since the Senate is not serious about doing their job, they will kill the bill rather than risk missing their 4th of July picnics. This is the result we want.

Talking border security. Enforce current law or draft a separate bill. Not the entire bill, Pinkie.

At least we know why noting ever gets done: Reid's ten seconds was up to six minutes when I walked away from the TV.
(Kept expecting him to reach down and pull up a cocker spaniel named Checkers to show just how humble and misunderstood he really is)
I also note that he stated incoming mail is going to the Capital Police - I'm sure that wasn't meant to quiet protest or anything.

If it is so bad here, why aren’t you with the Anti-FReeper sites or at Wideawakes?
