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.

When Clinton was president, the republicans actually acted like conservatives. There is no way that No Child Left Behind, CFR, Medicare Plan-D or any of the other insane programs would have been passed if Kerry or Gore were president. More true than not...remember we had Gingrich as Speaker during 4 of those 8 years. DeLay was House Whip, then majority leader post-Newt. Lott was Majority leader. Their gone, and making Frist the Majority Leader really hurt us. Hastert is a good man but was not a leader. We still lack effective leadership in House and Senate.
After listening to Voino-"which way is up" yesterday, it seems we also lack coherency

I don’t hear anybody voting, just their names being called. Maybe my audio’s not working well.

Jorge was my word, not yours..Sorry if it came out that way..It just looks like you want us to stop getting on Bush about this and that’s not going to happen...He’s lost the support of the majority in this country and he’s certainly lost the majority on this forum..My apologies if I offended you..
To: indcons
Why would you make such a suggestion? Some of us oppose W on this bill, but I agree that I hate the Bush bashing. We ARE NOT DU!

Look at this field of crooks.
Is this the best we can do? T.S. Eliot's "The Hollow Men" comes to mind...

Oh! now Bush is saying that if this doesn’t pass that there will be NO money for the fence.

And Speakin of the FENCE they can’t even build it on the right side of the border...

Do we know if any Senators are “absent” for this vote?Pray they are. It takes 60 votes to keep the bill alive. It doesn't matter how many are against (you get my point---if absent not one of the 60).
