The Internet Changes Everything

June 28, 2007

The internet is abuzz today following the Senate non action on the amnesty bill. A bad day for the empire is a good day for the League of the South and now to business: boot Lindsey!

Today, the Senate failed to invoke cloture on a key vote that effectively kills the immigration bill for this Congress, says the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). The cloture vote was the second this week and it sought to set a time limit on debate prior to a vote on final passage. The vote 46-53 was in opposition to cloture. This was an historic defeat for those who favor the status quo coupled with ineffective law enforcement, and represents a dramatic change in the politics of the national immigration issue forever. Public opposition was so great that the Senate phone system was entirely shut down, according to the Sergeant-at-Arms today.

Why did this bill fail? “National immigration politics have changed forever,”
