Kyle says "ILLEGAL ALIEN AMNESTY WILL PASS THE SENATE&q

"ILLEGAL ALIEN AMNESTY WILL PASS THE SENATE" from Senator Jon Kyl (R-AZ) at today's Town Hall in Sun Lakes, AZ

Demonstrate your grief publicly at the loss of US sovereignty, knowing that the US Senate supports legal status for 20 million-plus illegal aliens (and with legal status they become eligible for welfare and public assistance for them and their families they'll bring here PDQ.

Senator Kyl did mention the hope of neutralizing the "amnesty" by either Senate amendments or in the behind-closed-door conference committee proceedings, but he expressed the odds of success as only 50-50. So wear the mourning symbols until we know for certain that illegal alien amnesty has been defeated (and that includes "guest worker amnesty" disguises).

For the black ribbon, go to any fabric store or craft mart or even a variety store and ask for 1/4 yard (9") of black ribbon, and use clear nail polish on the ends to prevent fraying. Wear the black ribbon in a loop (like those for AIDS or Breast Cancer or Support our Troops) anchored by your American flag pin. If you already have a black armband, wear that with your US flag pin. To those who ask "Why" tell them that their US Senators have "compromised" to allow illegal alien lawbreakers to remain in the US with a "path to citizenship" allowing them to vote.

Call both the local and Washington DC offices of your federal House members and Senators and tell them about your public symbol of mourning. The toll-free number for the Washington DC offices is 888 355-3588.

To call the local district offices, you'll find the phone numbers at www.house.gov for House members and www.senate.gov for Senators. If one of your Senators is facing re-election in November, tell them your vote won't go to anyone who votes for illegal alien amnesty. Continue the phone calls until we know that illegal alien amnesty is removed from the legislation.

On CNN and FOX today, Congressmen Tom Tancredo and JD Hayworth both shared the firm House resolve against amnesty for illegal aliens, no matter what Senators pass.

It's better to have no bill at all than one with amnesty and "enforcement." We learned from the "one time amnesty" in 1986 that promises of future enforcement are phony. When we actually SEE the enforcement, then we'll talk about amnesty.

Here's a list of Senators facing re-election in November:

Democrats: CA-Diane Feinstein, CT-Joe Liebermann, DE-Thomas Carper, FL-Bill Nelson, HI-Daniel Akaka,MA-Ted Kennedy, MD-Paul Sarbanes, MI-Debbie Stabenow, MN-Mark Dayton, NE-Ben Nelson, NM-Jeff Bingamon, NY-Hillary Clinton, ND-Kent Conrad, NJ-Jon Corzine, WI-Herb Kohl, WVa-Robert Byrd, WA-Maria Cantwell

Republicans: AZ-Jon Kyl, IN-Richard Lugar, ME-Olympia Snowe, MS-Trent Lott, MT-Conrad Burns, MO-James Talent, NV-John Ensign, OH-Mike DeWine, PA-Rick Santorum, RI-Lincoln Chafee, TN-Bill Frist, TX-Kay Bailey Hutchinson, UT-Orrin Hatch, VA-George Allen, WY-Craig Thomas

Should any Senate staffer continue to insist that their boss "opposes amnesty" but will vote for the "compromise" (anything that allows illegal aliens to remain in the US is amnesty), use Judge Judy's famous reply:
"Don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining."

HE the one being interviewed on the radio today that I posted about. It's pretty much what was said.

I like the idea of the black ribbons

did he happen to mention when this vote was to take place? I've heard before Memorial Day -- we need a little more time

Yes, MAMIE, before Memorial day..........but my take/instinct is that they're going to try to get it done before that.

Remember, they made a DEAL that NO AMENDMENTS can be added or challenged! A very devious deal.

It's going to be very important that on Monday they're ALL contacted and bombarded with calls/faxes/emails!!!

I vote to kick their butts to the curb by Memorial Day -- make it a day to remember

Yes indeed... I suggest we all organize a BLACK MONDAY for May 22nd where we get thousands of folks to bombard phone lines of the Senate Judiciary Committee as well as everyone's Senators and tell them a simple one-liner:

"you have failed me on immigration and now I'm going to fail you at the polls. I intend to notify everyone I know and we are going to bring the events which occurred at Herndon, VA to your door steps there in Washington D.C. McDonalds is hiring, if you get there before illegal aliens do. Thank you."

If something akin to that doesn't work to set them straight, then I honestly believe that nothing will.

We need to bom-bard them now and say, no guest worker amnesty.

Dose anyone know what happens next. I know the Senate will go back to the House and negotiate a compromise. However, will it go to the Senate Floor for vote before or after the House negotiation? I'm a little lost here!

Right now we are focusing on the Senators on the Judicary committee like Frist, Kyl and Cornyn. Who is next our Senators or House members?

What if the Full Senate does not vote to pass this bill?

I normally do not follow a bill this closely. I normally voice my oppinon with my Congressman but now, I need to really eagle eye them.

Why........ I think we should just sit back... talk about it some more, and then watch it happen. Don't you?

Iiamstheone - I realize there might be a hint of sarcasm in there somewhere, but I also realize sarcasm is used at times as a thinly veiled criticism.

The reason we "talk about it" is to help drive one another into taking action. Let me ask you this: If there is a bill you know is detrimental to the country but you decide that you're just one person and you don't know if your action will make any difference because you aren't sure how many others are taking similar action - would you NOT even bother if you didn't know others were making a concerted effort along with you?

To KNOW others are taking action plays a very important psychological role - knowing others are rising to the front lines causes one to realize that it is "the thing" to get involved in due to it's importance.

I now rise to the occasion in asking you what kind of action you suggest - and how can it be accomplished without a communications network to rally others to make similar efforts? Because without a communications network with thousands of others and you choose to act alone - you will be the laughing stock of Congress and the Senate as they mock you into oblivion.

What are YOUR suggestions??

senator lugar from Indiana on the list will be re-elected for another 6 year term. We have no one running against him in this state.

Watch for your ALIPAC red alert then answer it with action. Contact friends to make calls too. You've already got the President of the United States backed into the Oval Office. He's real insecure to pull that power pulpit out. Keep carrying on. You are winning.

My best guess is that we'll need to begin Tuesday morning with another barrage.

Talking about it helps and it helps get the word out. As far as all talk and no action, we are at the beginning of a movement. The numbers at the marches and rallys will continue to grow. There is support against the illegals are all sides of the political spectrum. At first 25 people were showing up. In some cities now it is up to 500. The numbers will then become 1000 and then 10,000. The fact that the illegals and their supporters have shown up to protest OUR rallies and OUR marches is a good sign as well as the press is finally beginning to take notice.
And we can help each other by netwrking and also by giving out URLs to websites, numbers of whom to contact in Congress, etc.
We have not yet began to fight!
My advice to those who are naysayers and critical is to DO SOMETHING!

Ok, I want to ask people something. If I were to create a press release which mentions one given day for a nationwide protest "out in the streets", how many of you would send copies of the press release to every major media outlet (ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC and FOX) - AND - how many of you would be willing to spend at least $100.00 in photocopies to hand out in every city and state of the Union - AND - how many of you would be willing to help me in getting all the radio talk show hosts to permit us to call in to discuss the day of protest - AND - how many would actually show up?

I guess you could say I've gotten fairly "tired" of hearing so many folks talking about an OFFICIAL day of protest that is set in stone so we can get our own millions out in the streets, that I've been tossing around the idea of setting up a site on a major hosting companys server which can handle high bandwidth. It will COST buckoo bucka-rooskies for such a hosting package and the amount of bandwidth it would need were it to be thrown up on national media.

I am very willing to form a committee of several people who have control over a bank account so no individual can plunder the financial resources without the others. We could organize the group, pump massive funds into the account for advertising at a grassroots level, and then go for it.

You see, the problem is not that most are unwilling to go out and protest. The true problem is COST, and the very few who are willing to finance a huge operation such as this.

With all of this now in plain view - how many of you would go for it???
