GA: Angry calls flood senators
Angry calls flood senators

Washington — Angry Georgians on Monday continued to inundate the state's U.S. senators with phone calls and e-mails opposing the immigration compromise bill the two Republicans helped craft.
"The phones are still ringing," said Lindsay Mabry, a spokesman for Sen. Saxby Chambliss.
Chambliss, ranking member of the Senate agriculture committee, was primarily involved in negotiating provisions of the bill dealing with migrant farm workers. But the provision that has riled most callers is one that would allow existing illegal immigrants to gain citizenship relatively quickly and without being required to return to their home countries first.
Conservatives have tagged the provision "amnesty" for immigrants who broke the law. Some booed Chambliss at last weekend's state Republican convention when he tried to talk about the compromise, which sets goals for beefed-up border security that must be met before any of the other reforms can take effect.
Sen. Johnny Isakson — who originated the idea of wedding the reforms pushed by liberals with the border security concerns of conservatives — was also getting his share of the blowback.
"The vast majority of the calls we're getting are that it's a bad bill," said Joan Kirchner, spokeswoman for Isakson. "There's a lot of misinformation out there, and it's reflected in the calls."

That is outrageous. Johnny and Saxby's (I only refer to these two by their first names, no longer put the title of "Senator" either).....Johnny and Saxby claim that we, the people are misinformed.
Johnny, if anyone is misinformed it's you.
Do you know what a staffer in Johnny's office told me?!! He said that Johnny was FOR the bill because it's the only way to secure the borders!!
I was telling my husband about that and even our third grader started laughing and recognized what a rediculous thing for him to say.
Even a third grader can see through your attempt to deceive the people of Georgia in order to appease your buddy in the White House.
Clean that office up!! You have flunked out, just like Clay Shaw did in Florida! YOUR replacement is on the way.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
