The Senate sold us down the river today

[Useless]

It's not over yet-still hanging on by a thread

"Posterity — you will never know how much it has cost my generation to preserve your freedom. I hope you will make good use of it."
—John Quincy Adams

I'm afraid it's too late, Yooper!!
U.S. Dept. of Transportation, along with FMCSA have already announed the requirements for logbook revisions that will require all drivers to use new, revised logbooks, effective Jan.1, 2008.

The new logbook will be written for the purpose of accomodating illegal alien drivers from Mexico.

Along with the lines which read:

Off Duty
Sleeper Berth
Driving
On Duty, Not Driving,

The 5th line will read:

"S'Not My Yob"!! :P

what are you talking about? The title of the thread was the Immigration bill.
The immigration bill is now DEAD

[gigi_roxx]

Whew.... that was close!!!

But thank goodness they've killed the bill!

[yoopr]

reason why we have the greatest country on earth. The people jammed the phone lines in D.C with their displeasure on this bill and the Senate listened.

[Mr. Ford95]

Well, for the most part they listened. Needed a unanimous "NO" for it to truly show they listened.

[yoopr]

Bill was defeated-they listened

[Mr. Ford95]

Glad to see my 2 changed their tune. They both voted yes previously though the one, Jim Webb, wanted a slightly different version of the bill. He got his different version, no bill at all.

[Cluggy619]

The bill was defeated....now what do we do with the 12 million or so Illegals now? Does the bill being defeated really changes anything? Does this mean that they will start chasing these illegals down, and taking them back?

And will someone tell me what is wrong with a fried peanutbutter and banana sandwich?

(all this bill talk got me hungry)

[BigWheels]

We should celebrate the defeat of the immigration bill....However, the immigration bill (in part or in whole) will be reintroduced next year (if not sooner)...count on it. This issue will not be going away.

Here's an interesting article on unions divided over the bill.

This is a great morning in America! 40 Million illegal Mexicans have been denied amnesty. Now if we can just get them to go back to Mexico and fight for their own economic prosperity IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY!

[Mr. Ford95]

A lot of these "Mexicans" are not actually from Mexico. They are from Honduras, Gautamala, Ecuador, etc. Latin American countries from below Mexico. It is crazy that they make it thru Mexico since they will shoot these illegals on sight there. Yet Mexico and President Fox call us the bad guys for wanting them out of our country. They freakin shoot them where they stand if they catch'em.
