Mark....

Senator Graham also said that if the Congress doesn't solve the immigration problem...in it's current state...the local grassroots voters will...thus causing disastrous economic recessions and/or depressions for their respective cities and states.

And I believe him...and have been stating so in here for months.

Gitt'er done!

I'm a member of the United States Senate who believes it's my job to work with Democrats to do hard things. This is no longer about immigration. Can your Congress, can your Senate, come together to do things that one party can't do itself? I think the answer is yes.

Disgusting. You'll never hear a RAT talking like that. Did they work with Republican's on hard things such as:

Tax Cuts?

Social Security Reform?

The current War on Terror?

Stem Cell Research?

Foreign Policy?

Keeping our national security secret's secret?

Ol' Lyndsey's humping the wrong leg to get that VP nomination.

GOP negotiators of an immigration reform bill are crafting a large border security amendment with mandatory, immediate funding that they hope will assuage concerns of both Republicans and Democrats, FOX News has learned.

They still don’t get it. We don’t want no stinking new laws, enforce the old laws.

Lindsey .. we've been hearing that for at least 7 years and I think it's pretty safe to say ... the democrats don't want to work with us for the better of the country

I think Harry Reid made that pretty clear a few years back when he called the President of the United States a loser

We tried to get along ... Now it's time to face facts and move on

Oh ... and regardless of what you (Lindsey) say ... that immigration bill sucked

[twonie]

You are right. But if our vote for senators and representatives means nothing, which seems more and more to be true, we will have only one alternative left, and that alternative ain’t pretty. But given our general propensities, I think we can take them!!

[stevio]

He was pretty conservative when he was a congressman as I recall.

[Between the Lines]

Repeal the seventeenth amendment.

[TLI]

Well lets see..

Fred or Hillery? (gag)

Fred or Obama? (double-gag)

Fred or, or... hey they have pretty short list already!

I suppose in a way we do to.

[Rummyfan]

Blah blah blah... The bill is better than the current system. Hey Lindsey, you don’t enforce any of the current system, so why should anyone believe any of the promises of enforcement in this new 600-page monstrosity? Background checks completed in 24 hours? Yet in some states I have to wait a week to purchase a gun while a background check is completed? Why oh why are the President and these jackass senators pushing this rat’s nest?

What ever happened to doing the right thing? What ever happened to representing the will of the people who made you a member of the United States Senate?

[Travis McGee]

Lightloafer Lindsey Grahamnesty has got to be challenged and WHIPPED in the primaries before his 2008 reelection.

[cbkaty]

This is a bill that's a million per cent better than the current system.

What a putz.....1,000,000%.........

[RockinRight]

All I really want is something that can provide control over who comes here (read:terrorists) and something to help us not have to all become bilingual to communicate with a Spanish-speaking, non-English speaking underclass.

You've been stating a lot of illegal-coddling nonsense here for months all the while ignoring the existing real world impact of the illegals in crime, healthcare and education. You were wrong then and you are wrong now.

[DCPatriot]

Heck RR...maybe learning Spanish would give us both an edge!

{{{wink}}}

[DCPatriot]

How much money you got to lose?

[Republican Red]

From what I've read, Graham doesn't work WITH Kennedy, he works FOR Kennedy.

Graham can't even vote without Kennedy's instructions.

[RockinRight]

I unfortunately took French in high school. C’est la vie.

YOU: You were wrong then and you are wrong now.

ME: "How much money do you want to lose?"
