>>This is confusing. Sen Stevens said voting for cloture would allow the amendments to be considered, which would continue the debate.

Debate won’t continue- Reid will remove the bill from consideration, effectively killing it. There are other bills the Senate needs to consider.<<

If they voted for cloture, debate would continue for a little while, and then the POS would pass.

Ok. Now I’m confused. We don’t want cloture?

Some of them are counting on us loud stupid people not understanding that a vote for cloture is a vote for amnesty. Any amendments would be shot down or pulled out in committee. However, it doesn’t matter, if this vote goes through the bill is a done deal and the elitist liars have won this battle-but not the war. They will rue the day.
