Senate Logic on Amnesty S1639: “I voted yes for Cloture so I could vote no.”
BREAKING: AMNESTY BILL DEAD SEE: AMNESTY S1639 DEAD – CLOTURE VOTE 46 – 53 DEAD AND GONE
Wimpy of Popeye cartoon fame would always say, “I’d gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today”. Many of the Senators on Capital Hill are all acting like Wimpy. These are the ones lying to their constituents about their twisted logic. They say they don’t like the bill, but like the debate. They say they want to offer tougher amendments, then vote no on Cloture this Thursday.
That’s bullshit — if you didn’t like the bill you should have killed it on Tuesday. Harry Reid’s “Clay Pigeon” of 27 pre-selected amendments is another pile of dung. The Senators who switched votes from No two weeks ago to Yes are being promised future earmarks, or special consideration on future legislation. That’s how it works on the hill – it isn’t Democracy – “by the people, for the people” – it’s “fuck you people” – we are United States Senators, rich, fat, selfish elitist jerks!
In order to kill the Amnesty Bill once and for all we need to pick up about 6 more NO votes.
Here are the flippers – call them and don’t mince words this time. Their yes vote was for Amnesty. They have to vote No for America next time, or you will vote them out of office. The Washington toll free number is: 800-862-5530
