Thread: Senate On The Floor!!

Im not refering to the Pro Amnesty Group as the OBL lobby anymore but as The North American Union(NAU) Lobby because that's in fact what it is. Refering to them as the NAU lobby if we need to carry this fight to congress will carry more weight IMO.

Webb is still a Democrat, no vote is going to hide that fact. However, he strongly believes amnesty for those that have been here for less than a year is not right. He should vote against cloture.

If this were a 'normal person', I'd take the man at his word. This is a politician, though, so I'm skeptical. I've read a great deal of what he provides the public to know about him, but he's a politician. And, he really has not proven himself to be trustworthy yet.

VA has an illegal alien problem, mostly in the high-population suburbs, so he can't escape his constituents. Legal immigrants will support him if he does not approve this bill for all the reasons that we know of. One thing that VA is unique about is that several of the Counties here are some of the richest. And many VA residents are some of the most politically-connected in America......If Webb is a smart man he will listen to his constituents on this Bill.

For me, though, he has to prove that he's using his smarts and his Office to represent the people of VA and America. We'll see!

Vitter wasn't recognized at first, by Reid

Objections

Harry just allowed Vitter to speak

Vitter says he's being railroaded

together with other colleagues

Trying to exercise his "right" to be recognized

What a cluster-fudge.

Fight for your rights Vitter's, because Reid certainly isn't interested in hearing what you have to say!

Rep. King said on lou Dobbs he did not think it would pass the house and Nancy said she would not even bring it to the floor without being assured of 70 votes but king said he thinks it has no way of passing the house. But we are going to kill it here!!!

Vitter is now steamed since he has stated for the record that he is being railroaded. He is now stating objections to everything he possibly can.

DeMint is now basically calling Reid a liar...just not specifically using the word.

I am loving it, accusing Reid of abuse of the rules

True, but IMO it is highly unlikely that we'll see them again.

Oh I agree because they will not have time, within the 30 hours, which started at 10am this morning.

Also, Reid is getting his ass chewed by Vitter and DeMitt. Ramrod Reid is getting called on the carpet for his railroad job.

Oh, he just keeps blaming the Republicans for this situation. NO REID! THE BILL STINKS AND YOU WONT LET THE REPUBLICANS REPAIR IT WITH AMENDMENTS YOU ARE BLOCKING!!!!!!!!!

Dixie

GO DeMint!!!!! Call that F'n lier exactly what he is!
