Shamnesty On The Floor

I usually hate to do a quick post, and say watch what is going on, but Real Life is calling. Follow what is going on over at Michelle Malkin’s, and, if you are in North Carolina, call the offices of Richard Burr (202) 224-3154, who says he will vote "yes" on cloture, but "no" on the bill. That is unacceptable. A vote for cloture is a vote for amnesty.

You can also call Senator Dole (202) 224-6342. See if she can influence Burr.

These key senators are saying they will vote "yes" on cloture but "no" on the bill. This is unacceptable. Call them:

  • Christopher Bond (R-MO)   202/224-5721
  • Jeff Bingaman (D-NM) 202/224-5521
  • Richard Burr (R-NC) 202/224-3154
  • Barbara Boxer (D-CA) 202/224-3553
  • Thad Cochran (R-MS) 202/224-5054
  • Kent Conrad (D-ND) 202/224-2043
  • John Ensign (R-NV) 202/224-6244
  • Carl Levin (D-MI) 202/224-6221
  • Judd Gregg (R-NH) 202/224-3324
  • Ben Nelson (D-NE) 202/224-6551
  • Orrin Hatch (R-UT) 202/224-5251
  • James Webb (D-VA) 202/224-4024

Info from a Grassfire.org email.

Update before Real Life starts again: Cloture passes 64-35. CNN sadly writes

Senate votes to jump-start immigration bill (headline)

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate voted Tuesday to revive legislation that would set a path toward legalization for millions of immigrants.

The AP cannot even get beyond their ultra liberalism to accurately report that said path is for people who have already broken our laws by coming here illegaly. Sad.

However

"We do still have a shot to stop it, but it’s only going to be if the American people raise the level of their voices in the next 24 hours," said Sen. Jim DeMint, R-South Carolina.

Raise them high!

hope this looks ok, editing with Blackjack. Todays vote was not the important one. It provided cloture to debate the amendments, and now they have 36 hours to do so. Thursday is the true cloture vote to debate the actual bill. i assume this is what DeMint meant. Check the blog at the NRO for more. Will try and get a link later.
