A whole Lott of Anger!

The Washington Post had a piece about the outrage that Republican Senator Trent Lott caused by statements directed at Talk Radio and the conservative base and their opposition the the Senate Shamesty bill s1348. Lott seems to have done a John McCain and also shot himself in the foot with most of the conservatives in this country. Jeff Sessions of Alabama on the other hand knows better:"

A decent respect for our constituents means when they have very serious problems with an important piece of legislation, perhaps we should back off,"-Jeff Sessions

Pro-amnesty Senators have hit a wall or a least a fence.

It seems the people who negotiated the back room deal and then attempted to ram their amnesty agenda through the Senate this week have hit a wall or at least a fence unlike that which currently does not protect U.S. borders:
"The Senate voted last night to move forward on an overhaul of immigration laws, but even proponents of the delicate compromise proposal conceded that the furor over the deal was surpassing their expectations and endangering the plan."

All the pro-illegal amnesty lobby was represented very well in those closed door meetings. Senator Jeff Sessions has the money quote as to who was not:
"As for the negotiations that led to the immigration compromise, "I will tell you who was not in those meetings: It was the American people." In fact, negotiators "would listen to everybody, I guess, but the American people."

Well they had better start listening now!

Dumbocrats on parade!

As a registered Democrat it just disgusts me to see Democratic Senator Harry "sellout" Reid attempt to push the McCain/Kennedy/Bush amnesty bill through the Senate. The Democrats just don't get it the PEOPLE of this country do not want a repeat of the failed immigration policy of 1986 but, the Democrats are just pandering to get the Hispanic vote not doing what is right for the country and representing the wishes of the electorate. Here is exhibit A from the Washington Post:
"Democratic negotiators agreed. Democratic leaders, who are fighting for the loyalty of the fast-growing Latino electorate, have no desire to embrace legislation that could end up alienating the voters they are trying to woo."

Someone needs to tell these Dumbocrats that they had better start to do what is good for the country and not pander to special interest groups or they may be in for a surprise at the voting booths as the Republicans were during the last election. Maybe this Dear Colleague from Senator Jeff Sessions will show them how flawed the bill they want to debate is and the costs to the American taxpayers.
