Live Thread: Senate Amnesty Debate (CRITICAL 2ND CLOTURE VOTE TODAY!) Woo hoo!! It's DEAD!!

The U.S. Senate with Free Republic Input | June 28, 2007 | truthkeeper

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.

Speaking of Inhofe, I trust all signed the petition he set up at:

He’s probably been on the phone ALL NIGHT LONG arm-twisting....

[gridlock]

No....a vote against cloture ends it....(or should)

Only because the Senate is unwilling to do it's job. They will kill the bill rather than miss a 4th of July picnic because of a Fillibuster.

$2,500,000,000,000.00 at stake, and they are worried about a couple of hamburgers.

Message to GOP Senators: We are all watching.

Darn right! Specter up, claiming the GOP opponents don't represent the people. The heck they don't!!!

[herMANroberts]

Spectre: “They have no standing to represent the american people.” I guess the phone call, e-mail, polls, and letters are not direct enough for the magic bulleteer.

[Guenevere]

Jeff, I believe it’s much much more than that.

[Fudd Fan]

Kyl: Current laws CANNOT be enforced.

WTH??

[Afronaut]

KYL is a nut bag! "

1986 law is not an effective law" He should turn and thank Kennedy!

[mathluv]

Megan Kelly also said that this Supreme Court would be W’s legacy. Another good ruling came down today.

[mware]

SOB Spector, we will tell you what we think come November. B@st@rd.

[NordP]

SpectOr is deaf to reality.

[AmericaUnited]

Good God! Kyl just spewed what a load of Orwellian kook nonsense (”war is peace, peace is war, up is down, down is up”).

[not2worry]

Joyce Meyer is one woman I admire! She tells it like it is.

[ken5050]

you missed my point..Mitch wants cloture..

[norton]

"And to think I rooted for this idiot."

Did you notice that as soon as Specter identified him as an immugrant his accent changed?

"Oh 'chure, I can talk just like one..."

[prairiebreeze]

What convoluted procedure allows more time for the yes side?

Why, a democrat majority does.

Ahem, paging Bill Frist, paging ex-Senate Majority Leader Bil Frist...

[Sir Hailstone]

“Spector has offically LOST HIS MIND!”

Spinchter lost his mind long ago. Or he never had one in the first place.

[wastedyears]

If I don’t keep up on this thread for not even a minute, I miss about 50 posts.

[angelcindy]

lololol....Specter is a goof..guess he didn’t want it to sound spanish

Plus most Asian and African immigrants make a real attempt to become Americans by speaking the language, assimilating into the culture, excelling at school, etc. Mexicans not only don’t do that in general but they resent the notion that they should.
