He better do more than just lean against - he better fall all over it.

This would be a change for Nelson, who leans pro-Amnesty

Now, Senator Illegal Alien (Mel Martinez)...he is a hopeless cause. That Hispano-Centric aint gonna budge

I will give Nelson a call

Means nothing.

Might be a Dem code word for being “against” the move in the ill defined future from chain migration to skills migration (like Canada’s), a subject off most people’s radar.

Time to let Nelson know, NO AMNESTY, ENFORCE THE BORDER, ENFORCE THE LAW(ETL)so far so good.

Heritage is running Florida radio spots highlighting the costs to tax payers. May be in other areas as well.

YES!!! I have called his office EVERY DAY for the last two weeks...had some interesting conversations with his staff, and I have detected a decided change in tone from my first calls. They are actually asking questions- why do I think this or that...and seem to listen to the answers.

What gets me is how the Democrats aren’t totally embracing this idiotic amnesty deal in order to split the Republican party in two. W has really screwed his base and if this were to actually become law (which it won’t), the Conservatives would defect in droves from the Republican party and split the vote in 2008, basically handing the Dems the White House, Senate, and House. Thank goodness they don’t have very good stategery.

I wanna just show you what my politics are.

So don’t deny me baby, not while you’re in my reach.

I support the left, tho’ I’m leanin’, leanin’ to the right

But I’m just not there when it’s coming to a fight.

I live in Florida — I’ll call Nelson and tell him I’m against amnesty. Thanks for the number.

He indicated Nelson was leaning against the amnesty bill in present form.

The key words are........’in present form’. An amendment here, an amendment there and whoala!!! It will be acceptible and he will think is vote is duckable.
Don’t let them off the hook that easily.

I spoke with their office the other day too, and got the same impression. But Nelson is a weasel and I’ve had his office indicate they were for/against a certain bill and then vote just the opposite. I think they tell you what you want to hear while you’re on the phone.

I don’t see how anyone can “lean against amnesty.” I suspect he did not concede that this is an amnesty bill.

Got through.
Thanks for the English line!
His staffer sounded tired, but was polite and did note my zip code.

Nelson is probably against it becasue it is not a generoous enough amnesty plan.

I left him a message on the illegal immigrant hotline the other day. I told him i wanted to reach through the phone and shake some common sense into him. Glad to hear he’s seeing the light.

I just called Nelson and his people were very nice and said that he was eaning against the bill.
I urge other Florida residents to call and politely ask that the Senator reject as unworkable, the Amnesty bill.

Be polite, Please.

I just called his office and asked what the senator’s position was on this. The staffer said that he is waiting for opinion from his constituents before deciding his opinion on this. So I gave mine as I am one of ‘em.

Now in his third year in office, Martinez said he has never seen such a public outcry over a single issue.

Most of the calls and e-mails coming into his Senate office are from people who oppose the bill.

I’ve called a bunch of times. This weasel is still testing the wind. That means last minute arm twisting by the traitors will probably cause him to sign away his nation’s sovereignty.
