Bulldogger, thanks for the blog info. I posted twice.

I sure hope the GOP takes heed of so many outraged people !

However, since your post is proof that you have working eyes, simply scrolling down 15 topics would have provided you with the existing thread:

Mistakes are going to happen, mrrabbit. You can help to reduce duplicates by reporting them. Simply click on the exclamation mark in the right hand corner of the duplicate post and report the post as a duplicate (I do this routinely). It has been my exprience that the moderators will act on your duplication report promptly. Oh, and when reporting duplicate, please provide a link to the original thread.

Heck, I probably bug the he.. of the moderators with my numerous reportings of duplicates and posts that, IMHO, are in the wrong forum.

Questions:

1. Why did you clip the quote?
2. Why did you then go on to tell me do something which I actually did - which so happens to be what you clipped from the quote?

I am po'ed I have been since these government officals have been catering to illegals.
What has happened to this COUNTRY????
I am furiousley disgusted about what has happened to OUR COUNTRY the USA. Government officals dont give a DAM, about the AMERICAN citizens, I think it will just get worse.
I dont even like listening to these people anymore they make me sick.
They are more for the illegals than, the men that served this country.
They give everything to these people, and they keep taking and taking.

Good luck...

Three Down, One to Go!
Keep the Calls Coming!
May 21, 2008

Last night, Democratic Leadership partially capitulated and agreed to strip three of the four immigration amendments from the Iraq War Funding Bill that is on the Senate floor this week.

The move came when Senator Robert Menendez (D-NJ) made a point of order under Senate Rule 16, which prohibits legislating policy on an appropriations bill. The parliamentarian agreed, and stripped the following amendments:

The AgJobs Amendment that would have granted amnesty to 1.35 million agricultural workers and their families;
The Murray-Gregg Amendment that would have made approximately 218,000 more green cards available for multinational executives and so-called "highly skilled workers" by "recapturing" visas from as far back as 1994; and
The Leahy Amendment that would have extended for 5-years a program that helps wealthy investors get green cards.
However, Senate sources tell us that the Mikulski H-2B amendment - an amendment that could lead to hundreds of thousands of new unskilled H-2B guest workers flooding the labor market in only a few years - is still in the Iraq War Funding Bill. This is because the Iraq War Funding Bill is being considered in two parts and point of order raised by Senator Menendez only applied to the first part. The H-2B provision is in the second.

Please keep calling your Senators until Democratic Leadership strips this final special-interest immigration amendment from the Iraq War Funding Bill! Tell them that you oppose importing tens of thousands of new unskilled (H-2B) guest workers to appease corporate interests—and especially when the economy is struggling.

We heard throughout the day that your calls put intense pressure on Senators across the country. One staffer told us that the phones were "lighting up like a Christmas tree." Please help us make sure Congress looks out for the American people and not special interests.
