I am listening to the vote....I am hoping for it to go down, because it is a Kennedy Amendment to CHANGE a Cornyn Amendment that passed yesterday...sheesh

[Txsleuth]

Aw jeez, 53-47....it passed.

I will have to see if I can find out more about this.

[Bahbah]

Well, Kennedy's amendment passed, which is most unfortunate.

Is this the same bird who said since she wasn't an attorney, she wasn't smart enough to know if the program was legal or not?

[jacquej]

To be honest, I can't keep up with all this "legislation"... maybe a sign that it is all gorilla dust?

Geesh, Byrd up now!

[Mo1]

Oh geez .. Nutty Bryd is up now

[McGavin999]

It changed the ammendment to allow the immigrant to apply for the greencard instead of the employer.

[Mo1]

I think so

[Mo1]

The hearing is back now

[SE Mom]

Oh geeeeeeez...leave it to Kennedy to come up with an irresponsible idea..

[jackv]

I hate liberals & I hate democrats.

[3dognight]

Democrats in effect Acronym: DIE, very useful

Nice - I think DIE should be added to the freeper lexicon.

Hayden is sort of a baby faced Rumsfeld.

Very good analogy. Just as tough, but with that cherubic countenance will fool many people.

[TomGuy]

Byrd on CSPAN 2 calls the Bush plan an Amesty plan.

Byrd stopped the last attempt at Amesty (2002) on a technicality. Maybe he will do the same again.

[Mo1]

Questions starting .. each round each member gets 20 minutes
