Thread: *BLITZ* Countdown to Repub Kamikaze Suicide Mission is ON!

Update of calls I've made so far.....

I am getting very good results this morning.
I am asking direct questions and getting solid answers.

Sen Allard, Bunning, Burr, Coburn and Cochran do not support this Amnest legislation or any program that rewards illegal behavior. This is the first time that I have gotten such decisive answers.

Bennett and Brownbeck aides would not commit because they have not yet seen the legislation but one of the aides told me that is is 1,000 pages long.

I finalize the call by telling them that if they are voting against this legislation then they will have the support of 80% of voting Americans.

Fox knews just reported they struck a deal on immigration and Bush is expected to sign it, has anyone heard anything????

Quick suggestion:

End the call with ...........REPUBS will be committing Political SUICIDE

Fox news alert on right now!

merit based.
includes Z visa
path to citizenship included

But a deal was not mentioned.

From Michelle Malkin:

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) delayed until May 21 the cloture vote on the motion to proceed to S. 1348, immigration legislation very similar to last year's Senate-passed amnesty bill (S. 2611). The vote was delayed to buy Senators more time to negotiate a "compromise" bill and draft its language.

The Senators listed below are key to stopping Reid and Amnesty legislation. They voted in 2006 to bring the illegal alien amnesty bill to a floor vote so they could play "moderate" on the record with a "yes" vote for "inclusion". Then they covered themselves with the Republican base and tried to recover their "anti-amnesty" image by voting NO on passage of the bill, well aware that the legislation would fail and that their NO vote was just political tail-covering...

WASHINGTON May 17, 2007 (AP)

A bipartisan group of senators reached agreement with the White House Thursday on an immigration overhaul to grant quick legal status to millions of illegal immigrants already in the U.S. and fortify the border against new ones.

One of the key negotiators, Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., said he expects President Bush to endorse it.

The deal came after weeks of painstaking closed-door negotiations that brought the most liberal Democrats and the most conservative Republicans together with Bush's Cabinet officers to produce a highly complex measure that carries heavy political consequences.

It set the stage for what promises to be a bruising battle next week in the Senate on one of Bush's top non-war priorities.

The key breakthrough came when negotiators struck a bargain on a so-called "point system" that would for the first time prioritize immigrants' education and skill-level over family connections in deciding how to award green cards.
