Our Mi Casa Su Casa Senate

Unfortunately, the Senate appears to have forgotten who holds the mortgage.

Hopefully people are taking names and writing them down. At least some are as the Senate continues to undermine the value of American citizenship. Effectively, this bit below would allow 200,000 immigrants without work into the country a year and they're sure to be immediately qualified for socal services - free medical, unemployment, welfare?

What a disgraceful abuse of the taxpayers money. I wonder who they'll be voting for, as all this is going to open the door to that, too. Did you know the Constituion can't prevent non-citizens from getting the right to vote, even in Federal elections? That's up to the states and don't think it won't happen as some southwestern states continue to change demographically. It's only a matter of time. We might as well just ship absentee ballots to Mexico City and be done with it.

I hope voters have the sense to throw some of these idiots out of our collective house while we still have one.

But yesterday, the Senate essentially gutted that amendment by allowing foreign workers to apply for permanent residency without having a job lined up.

"What that means is that up to 200,000 unskilled workers a year would become eligible for a green card, regardless of economic conditions, regardless of whether that worker has been actually employed for four years, and most importantly, regardless of whether there are unemployed U.S. workers available to fill those jobs," said Sen. John Cornyn, Texas Republican.

Within hours, the vote had become an issue in this fall's elections, raised by a Republican challenger to Sen. Debbie Stabenow, Michigan Democrat.

"Instead of protecting the retirement security of Americans who are earning an honest living and abiding by the laws of our country, Debbie Stabenow sided with people who are here illegally and abuse our Social Security system," Oakland County, Mich., Sheriff Michael Bouchard said in a press release. "Allowing illegal immigrants to use their illegal work history as credit towards receiving Social Security benefits shows that Debbie Stabenow has forgotten who she is supposed to be working for in the U.S. Senate."

Can some one post the names and the votes?
Would be a very benifical handy to carry to the poles palm card.
