Here we are again my friends, hopefully for the last debate thread on this particular monstrous legislation. Proceedings are supposed to begin at 9:30 a.m. EST, with the cloture vote being taken at 10:30 a.m.
On a personal note, you've all been wonderful in your passion, vigilance, and commitment to the principles on which our country was founded. If I have to be in a foxhole, I want to be in it with you guys.

I feel energized! (and quite pissed) I wanna march down to the WH and say: "Dubya, you work for us! Not the agribusiness/sweatshop lobbyists! Either obey the law and build the fence like we told you to do, or we stop sending our young men and women to fight and die for your half-hearted escapades in the WOT!"

Byrd can't see small print without his glasses so each page has only a few words on it like this:
Help! I am old!

Your post was beautifully stated. Tears of happiness. Good prevails when good men do something. God helps those who help themselves. Dear Father we thank you.

I can’t go to sleep in the middle of one of the funniest sketches since Tim Conway did the oldest mailman bit. It started with forgetting his mike and has been a laugh riot ever since.

Hey, Trent...this one's for you:LOL, great graphic and sentiment. Lott is just one of the RINO disgraces that haunt our legislation.
Great news I'm seeing from the posts here, thanks to all for the updates.
It's raining cats, dogs and mice here and my internet connection being iffy along with FR being slow, I was unable to refresh pages very quickly.

Nice thought but I fear a wasted effort. Libs and their partners lack the shame to even feel the defeat.
I genuinely believe that those (here and elsewhere) who supported this travesty are dangerous and will be back because they would benefit personally, let their neighbor be damned.

Remember that great line from "Miracle on 34th Street"? (One of my all-time favorite old movies.)
"Faith is believing in something when common sense tells you NOT to." America stood strong against the odds...and we WON.

53 Nays sends the signal that the Bill itself would have been defeated. HOoraH!!!Not really - the bill would have easily passed. Several senators changed their vote once defeat of the motion was assured.
