I don’t know what you are trying to point out. Are you saying that we should support the RNC and all Republicans, no matter what?

Yeah, I've been trying to figure that out as well. The fact of the matter is that the Democrats had chance of passing an amnesty bill into law on their own and they had no plans to try.

It wasn't until Bush and senate republicans got together with the Democrats and proposed that an amnesty bill was doable. A very significant faction of the republican party was the driving force behind this bill - including all of the leadership.

It is not clear how anyone could praise the GOP or RNC for what has transpired over the last few weeks. Without the meddling of the republican whitehouse or the republican senators, this bill would have never been even considered.

The praise goes to the grass roots movements and to principled senators like Jeff Sessions.

I’m simply making the FACTUAL statement that is is REPUBLICAN Senators who killed this bill, lest JeffAtlanta goes off the deep end without someone throwing him a lifeline.
