Sounds like he is a ‘YES’ Vote on CLOTURE.

Therefore, he is a weasel.

You all need to gin up some calls to him so he feels the pain in store if he votes for cloture. He has a large number of Mexican constituents, and needs to hear from the other side.

I don't see where he is voting for cloture.

I'm not saying he is or isn't, I just can't discern from where he implies he is.

Great letter, l_s.

If we can't keep track of and enforce the visas we've already issued, how are we going to deal with twelve to twenty million more?

With YOUR tax money!!

I’ve seen this letter from Coleman. A guy I work with got the same one.

They may have registered your letter as received and being against cloture, but they didn’t read it.

“”You may also be interested to know that I introduced amendments that would have ended the policy of sanctuary cities.””

Blah Blah Blah.

With passage of the bill the immediate mass legalization of tens of millions of illegals will make “sanctuary cities” pointless. The whole country will become a sanctuary.

All enforcement will cease as meaningless.

Looks like a NO on cloture. He can’t support the act currently before the floor is what I think it said.

“He has a large number of Mexican constituents, and needs to hear from the other side.”

Those must be illegals. All MexAmericans I know don’t want amnesty, but some concern about “family reunification” changes.

NRO Corner has been excellent is updating the vote tally on cloture. They called Coleman's office yesterday:

Staffers for Norm Coleman, R-Minn., said that he has concerns that the bill is incomplete, particularly if it does not include his "sanctuary city" amendment, but until that issue is resolved, he cannot say with certainty how he will vote on cloture.

And, I can guarantee you that my friend wasn’t anywhere near as cordial as you were. He lit him up pretty good.

Thanks, that seems to be consistent with what his email said.

“Looks like a NO on cloture.”

He’s a “YES”

He’s looking for a fig leaf — his “sanctuary city” amendment. If it fails he’s still wobbly. If it passes he can say “I’m tough on enforcement”

As I said earlier, I think the “anti-sanctuary city” bid is a canard. The bill would turn the whole country into a sanctuary. Enforcement will end. Big Business/ACLU will be instructing all persons when challenged to say, “I have been in the US since December 31, 2007”. That will terminate enforcement.

Start here and go to Paragraph 902 (near the end). Read closely the content on the European people.

You can read through the thread at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1853615/posts to pick up Freeper comments.

Some claim Coleman is behind this one.

There are those who might well disagree with the idea of forming a Commission to study the question of whether Nazis and their families should get in line for payoffs from the United States.

I think these guys thought they'd padded this one so well with the Jewish Refugee Commission material that no one would catch on to what they were doing.

Coleman has a horse in this race. Not one I'd ride of course, but there it is.
