Senator Chambliss is thinking he can bluff us again.

| Saxby ChamblASS is offering an amendment. He said the border arrests were down because the border patrol is doing a better job. |

Chambliss has rested. They're calling the roll.

I don't know tiny! I usually wait the hour for the Senate to post it on the website.

| I don't think they're going to have a cloture vote yet. I don't see anyone objecting to Chambliss' amendments. |

They are taking a quarum call right now to see if they have a majority so they can vote on the amendment.

Well duh! Let border patrol do their job and they just may be amazed at how good they are at it! |

| I guess they're going to debate for a little bit, then they are going to have a vote to limit debate, then a cloture. |

They play classical music like this in insane asylums to keep the patients docile! lol

W, the should also pass out the thorazine shots so after this bill is killed, we can all sit around, relax and drool on ourselves!
Back to the serious stuff, doesn't it strike anyone as odd that ried waited until AFTER all of the dems and reps offices were closed to do this second cloture vote?
Specifically, if their offices are closed, they wouldn't be getting any calls at all, and they would be able to push this tripe legislation through.
Call me a little paranoid, but I can't rest easy until I see this bill died a horrible death in the headlines.

Is staff at work to notice if we keep on phoning, faxing, emailing?
Or do we just wait it out now?

It would appear that there's not a sufficient quorum. Calling the roll again.
Can't help but wonder if some stayed away on purpose. |
