This has nothing to do with immigration, Harry Reid is talking right now about immigration and giving these lying sob stories...hmmmm I think this is about ILLEGAL immaigration and our borders not being secure. The bill was already approved to build the fence! Build the fence!
Reid is talking on and on like someone who knows he is going to be executed and doesn’t want to stop talking to let it happen. He must know the votes are not there. Let us pray this is the case. (or perhaps he is waiting for Chertoff to get another briefcase of cash to offer Ben Nelson to vote for cloture)
Holy crap! Just heard Dung-heap Harkin on the radio news....he’s not liking what this shamnesty bill is turning into...I think they may need to protect themselves from the wing-ed swine in DC...
Why isn’t the lady saying “Mr. Kennedy, Aye” instead of just the name?
Roll call has started. Brownback vote aye (for cloture and for amnesty.) I’ve gotten two funds appeals from him recently because I’m on pro-life mailing lists. I’ve ignored them because I knew he was pro-amnesty. If I get another one, I’ll send it back and let him know what I really think of him.
Senate phone system crashed this morning.
As sluggish as FR is, is it about to crash?
My count so far is showing:
Y = 23
N = 21
Stevens, Murkowski and Domenici changed vote to no.
Abusive, arrogant jerkwater Webb votes "No" on cloture, and Larry Craig, good conservative from Idaho votes yes.....
Still, I feel like this cloture vote will FAIL!!!!!
Hoo-rah!
Y = 31
N = 34
I have 43 Nos so far
The bill failed!
WOOOHOOO! Great news! Thanks to “of the people, for the people and by the people” senators!
Wait... the Senate’s only living corpse is trying to say something.
Congratulations, everyone. Nice work. Now it’s time to vote out the traitors.
