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.

Does Reid still call illegal aliens “undocumented Americans?”
To: manonfire
Specter says that voting for cloture will allow the bill to be improved. LOL. The small band of “grand bargainers” bypassed the normal senate process, no committee hearings and no cost analysis, and drafted this abomination in secret. They have done everything possible to limit debate and the voices of those who oppose the bill. And now they want to pass a bill that only 26% of the American people support. Is this the US Senate or the Soviet Politburo?

I voted for Jorge twice, also. I agree with you. Either Gore or Kerry would have been far worse.

My Favorite Liberal (Mrs. Gridlock) is even against this bill. It is the first thing we have agreed on in years.

Oh brother............
saying that a Mexican should go into the “witness protection system” because he’s working on the immigration bill.....and that he gets HATE mail on this.
boo hoo
Yes you should “do something positive that effects everybody in America”: BOOT OUT THE ILLEGALS!
To: American Quilter
Ried...disagreement is not hate.
solve the problem by closing the borders then.
let’s see, check all 12 to 20 million in 24 hours? You are lying, Senator.
To: Red_Devil 232
Then the pile of amendments will begin. Final vote would be several days away at the soonest.

Sen. Smith [Kathryn Jean Lopez]
Im told has decided to switch his vote to pro-cloture. Well, he got his 30 pieces of silver. It will be remembered.

Newest Senator [Kate O'Beirne]
NR met Senator Barrasso of Wyoming this morning, who arrives just in time to vote against cloture on the immigration bill. But he indicted that he comes to Washington well-informed enough to vote the right way when he explained that he had xeroxed copies of a few recent pages of NR in his briefcase.

Wrong. EMP is the directed product of a thermonuclear explosion whose radiation is designed to be emitted primarily in the electromagnetic waveslenths.
It IS a vast explosion but the beauty of it is that the pulse is very large in radius & effect, and can be detonated far from the target area.
Everything else is science fiction.

On the other hand, Lord Spectre DOES look shot. Death warmed over. He has cancer, I think. And his personal appearance is irrelevant.
