The Senate will agree to anything to get the bill passed with 60 votes. The lib democraps will hold their noses and vote knowing that the bill will then go to conference committee where all the 'objectionable' amendments and language that conflicts with the House bill will go down the memory hole. Since a conference report/bill needs only fifty votes and can't be filibustered, the half dozen democraps who voted to bring the bill to debate and 'insert' their 'amendments' can now go home after the bill passes and state, well we voted for debate and we altered the bill, and I voted against the realtered bill from conference, but unfortunately there were just too many votes for it and it couldn't be filibustered. I represented your views but we must respect the will of the majority of Congress.

I believe that Texas has the right to leave at any time. I know the Civil War was suppose to settle that but I think times are different. We can certainly fend off Mexico especially since Barry seems to have no interest in self defense anyway. Slavery was one of the reasons that the first civil war was fought and slavery to the <em><strong>FEDS</strong></em> will be the main reason that the second one will happen. I don't want any politician from California and the northeast to govern over me. They have mangaged to screw up everything over there. Stay away from Texas. Just leave us TFA.
