Teddy K is now talking about the 'undocumented' and their great usefulness. He sounds calm, rested and 'reasonable' while urging for a 'yes'.

The magic bullet keeps on striking again and again.
Ron Paul. President. Spread the Word.
Reed is still wearing a watch passed onto him by his daddy or dady in law (anyone who watched 'Pulp Fiction' would know why I started laughing when he mentioned that). Reed's children are eligible for Israeli citizenship, says Reed. Nice! My heart is melting like a popsicle. Oh, Reed's skin is white, says Reed. His skin is 'American skin' (made in China?). I thought that this bill was only for legalizing the illegal immigrants, not the consumption of illegal drugs.
Antiparty - find out why, think about 'how'
Harry Reid is just plain pathetic. What a waste and disappointment to those that voted for a democrat congress.
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
Reed says: if you vote for cloture you vote for a more perfect union.

Amendment-laden immigration bill in peril WASHINGTON, June 28 (UPI) -- The fate of the fractious immigration reform bill in the U.S. Senate was shakier Thursday after the chamber voted down amendments and lost supporters. The bill, which U.S. President George Bush is pushing to pass, has 26 amendments from Democrats seeking to soften some restrictions and Republicans wanting to stiffen them. Each of the amendments has supporters, most of whom have said their overall votes will be tied to the amendments' passage, and Wednesday saw many fence-sitters fall away as their projects were voted down, The Washington Post reported. One major amendment rejected was a Republican proposal to require adult illegal immigrants to return to their countries temporarily to qualify for a special new visa, the Post said. Newcomer Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., told The New York Times the situation was perplexing. "I feel like Goldilocks," McCaskill said. "It is either too hot or too cold. It is certainly not just right."

First count: yes - 19 no - 21

And Webb switched to 'nay'. He disappointed me last time because he voted 'yeah'. I think it's going down.

I don't suppose there's a song about 19 bullets...
Oh good, I can like him again.
Current tally (updated as they are calling the votes: 24 yeahs, 30 nays

31 - no 25 - yes

What does a tie mean? Cheney steps in his non-executive capacity?
This is taking too long.
Cheney can not vote on this one.
Antiparty - find out why, think about 'how'
At least 38 nays so far. 38 nay, 30 yeahs
Antiparty - find out why, think about 'how'
44 - no Unless someone changes their no vote, the immigration bill is DEAD!!!
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
50 NO!
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
dead is the important word for today
I think I am getting a big delay on the C-Span feed. I got to 50 nays now. It would be so much fun to listen to the post-mortem speeches and to the inevitable Bush commentary about, maybe, the senators refusing to do the work that the American people wants them to do.
Antiparty - find out why, think about 'how'
They need 60 ayes, so this is dead.
52 - nay I wish the Senate keep a running tally like the House does.
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
Wow... a majority of nays. The M-Fers must have gotten really scared. This explains the acrimony in Specter's talk and the ridiculous, possibly drugs-induced Reed speech about his children as possible Israeli citizens/.
Antiparty - find out why, think about 'how'
Cable news is announcing the immigration bill is finished. Good job all!!!
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
I believe I just heard Voinovich vote no... Didn't he have a dust-up with Hannity yesterday supporting the bill?
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
Final Vote: 46 - yes 53 - no
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
I wonder if when they saw the way the vote was going more decided to vote No. 53 No 46 Yes
Vinovich for 'surrender' in Iraq yesterday, against amnesty today... what's happening? Did he detect some change in political winds? 53 nays, 46 yeahs - the official tally. Reed is now mourning.
Antiparty - find out why, think about 'how'
No doubt. Why go on record as supporting a lost cause if the cause was lost?
Antiparty - find out why, think about 'how'
and piss off your constituents at the same time
Byrd is talking about how old he's getting. Good grief.
Wow... after Reed discloses his semi-Jewishness, Byrd takes the floor to announce his imminent death. Did they have a party or an some orgy last night?
Antiparty - find out why, think about 'how'
I think he has 3 words on every piece of paper in front of him. He tosses one aside every 5 seconds.
I was pleased and surprised that at least one of my Senators, Stabenow (D) voted no on both cloture votes and she isn't even up for re-election. The other bastard Levin, voted yes both times. He is up for re-election.
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
Maybe he's pleading with NWO not to finish him off just yet. The world is full of pretty young people, he just said. (help)
What a dummy!
Now he's repeating himself. worth the wait? Grandma Moses? Talk about denial. He's really losing it!
Well... he did vote 'nay' on both cloture votes so there is some good, common sense in him. He does seem to have problems articulating words clearly. Just an old man... what can you do?
Antiparty - find out why, think about 'how'
...like the rest of us don't know that already? I enjoy visiting West Virigina on occasion, but having to endure seeing Byrd's name on everything will quickly drive you insane.
I thought that was already part of the bill! Even if they put it in there I can't see illegals going home to become legal.
very true, but still
