Harry and Nancy Not Sure About Immigration Bill
2007-05-18
A bipartisan immigration deal that would grant legal status to millions of people in the country unlawfully is drawing criticism from across the political spectrum.

The bargain reached between key Democratic and Republican senators and the White House faces an uncertain future in the Senate, which is set to begin debating it Monday.

"I don't know if the immigration legislation is going to bear fruit and we're going to be able to pass it," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., who harbored "serious concerns" about the deal.

Even if it were to survive what's certain to be a searing Senate battle, the measure would be up against long odds in the House. Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., acknowledging deep divisions on immigration among Democrats, says she won't bring it up unless President Bush can guarantee he will produce 70 Republican backers - a tall order given GOP concerns that the bill is too lenient.
More opinions at link. Maybe Bush knows it won't pass the Senate?

#11  O'REILLY holds that the status quo of border insecurity and pervasive, massive, uncontrolled in-flows of illegals, etc. into the USA will not only destroy the GOP vv DEMS but also will eventually result in a national ONE-PARTY GOVT AND STATE. *COMMIE AMERIKA RISING [BY DEFAULT]DUE TO IMMIGRATION + BORDERS ISSUES - the only issue at that point in the future will be whether the US LEADS-DOMINS THE FUTURE OWG, OR RUSSIA-CHINA LEAD AN ANTI-US OWG WHERE THE US AGENDA IS JUST ONE OF MANY OTHER WEAK NATIONS.

#3  DV, I think this has always been the case it is just that she has a higher profile and the stupidity if more obvious.

#2  It is just me, or is it the longer Nancy is in power the dumber and more indecisive she looks?
