I heard Pete King on Mark Levin’s show last night, talking about this and I liked what I heard. He said the overview of it is on his website at peteking.house.gov

“Make it so”

Indeed.

The INSANITY of discussing how to “fix” Social Security and in the next breath talking about making up to 50 million low wage workers eligible for it is incomprehensible.

What the hell are these people thinking???????

“The measure is also a direct challenge to President Bush, who sees immigration as a legacy issue”

In the same way that, say, the Battle of San Jacinto was Santa Ana’s legacy ... except in Bush’s legacy, the Mexicans get to win.

A legacy issue??? Why would Pres.Bush want to be associated with a bill that would destroy this country? Words cannot express my anger and disappointment with him.

A question I have which has NOT been discussed is this.
WHY the importance of the lawmakers that all these illegal immigrants be allowed to become US citizens? Why not just permanent residents? Why the “citizenship” issue. Many could care less if they are legal citizens.

Exactly!!!

Call the Swithcboard @ 1-866-340-9281 and speak to Every Dem Senator and Congrssman.

Webb, McCaskill, Tester, Landrieu, Lincoln and Prior are especially vulnerble.

Let’s put our emotion to good use ...

Stop Z-visa amnesty!! Call the Senators, tell them to vote “NO”: 202-224-3121, 1-866-340-9281

It CAN be stopped if we dont let up. The next 5 days is critical to the nation’s future.

Ok, but how does this stop the Senate bill. They can still pass it, and then Pelosi can take it up, yes? Is there something procedural I am missing?
