Naming Names - The Senators Who Sold Us Out 6/8/2006 12:50:35 PM
Thanks to one of our own bloggers, Elizabeth Lucas-Taylor, and others on the Internet, a list of the Senators voting for the “immigration reform bill” is being circulated.
These are the culprits who believe that illegal aliens should be allowed to collect Social Security (even though they have been using stolen identities and Social Security numbers). Combined with that, this bill will put 8 to 10 million illegal immigrants on the path to citizenship.
The entire list of 50 offenders is posted at Elizabeth Lucas-Taylor's entry of 6/7/2006, "These Senators voted
..."
In studying the list, I found some interesting patterns in how they voted.
There were several states in which both Senators voted against the bill. They were the Senators from Alabama, Georgia, Idaho, Kentucky, Maine, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri,New Hampshire, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming. For whatever reason, these Senators chose to follow the wishes of their constituents and the American people.
Hooray for them!
(For those of us who live in Florida, Senator Martinez voted for the bill, while Senator Nelson didn’t. Nelson is up for re-election this November. I guess he was reading the political tea leaves.)
In my opinion those who voted for this bill should be targeted for defeat the next time they come up for re-election. Make no mistake, there are some prestigious names in this group of offenders, names like McCain, Kennedy, Biden, and Clinton. Some want to run for President. What’s their vote on the illegal immigration issue telling us about their agenda once they achieve the White House?
The liberal Democrats like Kennedy have been compromised by a political agenda. Many others have sold themselves to lobbyists and campaign contributors whose agenda is to maintain a constant flow of cheap (meaning illegal) workers into the American labor force. As I’ve stated before in previous entries, the continued uncontrolled influx of these illegals will only create a greater burden on our social welfare system in which you and me, as a Middle Class Americans, will pay dearly.
If you are so inclined, print out the names of those who chose to sell you out. Keep them in a safe place. And when these arrogant jerks come up for re-election, remind everyone you know what they did in 2006.
