Whew! Senator McCain is not happy today�not happy at all.

Responding to Senator Vitter�s (R-Louisiana) remarks, Senator McCain objected to use of the term �amnesty� when describing the McCain/Kennedy bill.

He said �Call it amnesty, call it a banana if you want to, but it�s earned citizenship.�

Cranky McCain said we could call his bill a banana�ok, from now on I�ll call it the Banana Bill.

Referring again to the word �amnesty� McCain said �Frankly I�m growing a little weary of it, I�m growing a little weary of it.�

Yeah, and we�re growing weary of you and your amnesty bill�oops, I mean Banana Bill.

And then the distinguished Senator from Arizona went off on a tangent the likes of which we rarely see outside a looney bin:

Again, addressing the cutie-pie Senator from Louisiana (Vitter) Mc Cain started talking about the children of illegal aliens who are currently serving in Iraq. He said�brace yourselves, people�he said,

�I wonder if the Senator from Louisiana wants to call a soldier fighting in Iraq and tell him that �hey, while you�re fighting over there, we�re deporting your parents�.�

Gracious, that man has been spending waaaay too much time with the Kennedy Clan�he�s no longer able to argue the merits (or lack thereof) of his bill so he�s introducing absurd, hypothetical situations.

And how tacky to use soldiers in Iraq�

There he is! My man, Saxy Chambliss (R-Georgia)!!

He just rose to speak in favor of the Vitter Amendment which would, in the words of John Mc Cain:

�Strip the guts of the current bill.�

Yeah, the �current bill� is S.2611 which is basically the Mc Cain/Kennedy bill so�way to go Saxby!!
