I could not believe the lack of attention that this is getting? I called WCBM in Baltimore MD this morning and asked the guy who answered the phone why they were talking about Christmas and Coors as opposed to urging people to call the Senate this morning. Unreal!

I hope this doesnt make it through the Senate.

I’m at a loss for words. No one is talking about this. None of my conservative friends have heard about this. Apparently getting little to no play on talk radio. One thread at HotAir with with 30+ comments, one post at MM.com, buried down somewhere. What the hell!?!?!!? Guess they wore us down, finally. Oh well, I suppose we will deserve the god knows how many millions of new citizens we will get in the next ten years from this backdoor amnesty program. In case anyone doesn’t know, upon graduation these illegals will get a green card. After five years they can apply for citizenship. Which means their brothers, sisters, mother and father, and any children can come, and of course spouse if they didn’t come already on the basis of the green card. Then add the spouses family….then the wives/husbands of all the brothers/sisters, then their mother/fathers and brothers and sisters. DISASTER! Massive fraud waiting to happen, too.

I can’t tell you for sure which way she’ll vote… but she votes against America every chance she gets…

I hope this doesnt make it through the Senate.

Thanks a bunch! I’m in Tampa and will use this and call Mel’s offices.

I just called both my senators- Bill Nelson and Mel Martinez.

I couldn’t get through to their D.C. offices. Nelson has a busy line and Martinez had a full voice mail. I called them at one of their state offices.

I had two questions:

How are you going to vote?

Do we still have a representative government in D.C. or a dictatorship?

Nelson’s office said vote would be Yes.

Martinez’ office said they didn’t know (yeah, right, I thought).

I also asked them how many times I was going to have to call about this. I blistered their ear in both offices, especially because we have a daughter in college (a legal citizen) in our state.

I also read back to Martinez’ office quotes from this page from his campaign promise, and reminded them I knew the page had been taken down but I knew how to search for it. (I have done this before!!!)

Any of you from Florida, here it is:

The irony is that a significant number of Latinos are also values voters. And just like the GOP is loosing their historical core values voters, they are loosing Latino values voters as fast as they are gaining them through “undocumented” immigration.

In the interest of progressive democratic freedom, why can’t those darn Christians just shut up?
{sigh}
I actually heard someone say that the other day.

Yeah, you may be right. It may be too late, already. We had such an opportunity in 2000 to start to turn things around and the ‘pubs blew it, big time. Will never have that opportunity again, most likely.

We need an organized conservative group, similar to MoveOn, where we can donate and be members. Then this group can behave like MoveOn, and say that any Republican congressperson who supports this monstrosity will be targeted with the full force of the organization for defeat in the next election. We just don’t have that power now. The phone calls and pressure from talk radio and the blogs helps, but we don’t have that one unifying presence that MoveOn brings to the radical left.

Demographics is our problem. This country is eventually going latino, the Republicans just think it’s already happened.
