Well, we know one of those 40 Republican votes in the House is NOT Jim Leach: he has already been retired by IA liberals who turned against him.

“extremes on the left and the right.”

Dorgan (D - ND) voted against the bill (voted against cloture.)

Dorgan is hardly an extremist of the left. His Column in the Fargo Forum had my house-full of Neocons positively nodding in general agreement.

"The immigration deal has received virtually no broadcast network evening newscast coverage over the past few weeks"

Elites' sneak attack.

They kept it out of committees because it would've died there. They made it run fast and under the news radar, because a vast majority of Americans would oppose it if they knew.

Keeping the Amnesty Bill out of the news was their plan all along. Thanks for finally noticing.

I am a little confused. I thought the 2006 midterms proved the Conservative wing of the Republican Party had lost its clout. :)

As I said to someone else who asked me the same question earlier tonight,ooooooooooook,but just for tonight,because the people INCLUDING our beloved President really want to get some law like McCain\Kennedy passed before GW rides off to Crawford.We’ve got another year of close calls and just maybe we can get a REAL conservative President in the White House to stand by us !!!

There a few Democrats left in the world that can think ahead of their next Martini.

"I say we throw them all out of office and burn Washington to the ground!!!"

I like your spirit, but would limit the damage to all the Agencies except maybe the Pentagon.

I for one salute Dorgan for getting the ball rolling in temporarily pushing back this idiocy.

Thank you George W for destroying our chances in ‘08 and beyond. Thanks to that immigration bill, that supposedly was going to help us with Hispanics, the GOP has probably lost the Hispanic vote for a generation. Thanks again for opening this can of worms!

Large parts of our elected representatives seem to think it is OUR and THEIR responsibility to take over the responsibilities that should rightly belong to the Mexican government, and it has been like that in one form or another for at least 60 years. NOW, though, it has reached the tipping point. If they don’t get the message now, they have sealed their fate forever. I expect them to keep fighting, and thinking they can hammer out a bill “which will pass” by tweaking a few things here and there. They will be wrong again. We should inform ALL OF THEM THAT PROMOTED THIS BILL THAT THIS IS OUR COUNTRY, NOT THEIRS!

Has the President made a statement yet?

Seems this bill was important to him.

I say give the reconquistadoras one year to go back to Mexico, then start guest work visa program strictly for current residents of Mexico. No Z-visa nonsense, and if we found the applicant had already been illegally in the USA within past five years, we get their labor all right — making license plates in concrete houses.
