Senate passes immigration bill, 68 to 32

Amnesty Clears SenateFrom the WashingtonTimes.com:

Vowing they’ve learned the lessons from the 1986 amnesty, the Senate on Thursday approved the biggest changes to the immigration system in a generation, promising this latest version will prevent another wave of illegal immigrants while at the same time granting a pathway to citizenship to most of the 11 million illegal immigrants already in the country.

The 69-32 vote, which saw 14 Republicans join all 54 of the chamber’s Democratic caucus members support it, is likely the high-water mark for immigrant-rights advocates, who held prayer vigils and watching parties Thursday in anticipation of good news for illegal immigrants who’ve been waiting, in some cases for years, for legal status.

Then you have the insanity of John McCain:

“Shouldn’t we give them the same chance that we’ve given wave after wave of immigrants?” said Sen. John McCain, an Arizona Republican who has worked on this issue for years and who was one of the eight senators who wrote the bill that passed.

As McCain says, “wave after wave” of the illegal Mexicans.  So he wishes to call those endless waves of lawbreakers as citizens.  So those waves will obviously continue.  Why shouldn’t they?  There are rewards for lawbreakers.

Now, on to the House.

Yes, given; this is a lengthy video and most of you won’t play it in full.  Still I post it.

Please listen to this, ladies and gentlemen, because the devil IS in the details.  This bill will create an enormous incentive to hire those here illegally, and a penalty for hiring US citizens.

Obama: “a war on coal is exactly what’s needed”

Mr Obama spoke at Georgetown today, frequently wiping his brow “due to the heat” whereas, before, when it was hot, he hadn’t.  That’s called a “clue” for the clueless amongst us, and a staged and “faux” gesture directly attributed to anthropomorphpic “Global Warming.”

Mr Obama hits on so-called “global warming” today — whilst in the midst of an actual jobs and economic crisis.  Instead, Mr Obama is focusing on killing jobs.

He is out of touch with Americans, who fear that Obama will only kill jobs.  Under his energy proposals, your gas bills will go up, energy bills up, electrical bills up, fuel oil bills up, propane bills up.

Thinking that perhaps he left an “out” for the Keystone XL pipeline, he also made a Big Show out of promoting “alternate energy” such as solar and wind.  In total inconsideration of those federally-supported venues having quite tanked at the behest of your American Taxpayer dollars.  Solyndra, anyone?

That said, Mr Obama’s “Climate Advisor” Daniel Schrag believes, from the WeeklyStandard.com:

Daniel P. Schrag, a White House climate adviser and director of the Harvard University Center for the Environment, tells the New York Times “a war on coal is exactly what’s needed.” Later today, President Obama will give a major “climate change” address at Georgetown University.

“Everybody is waiting for action,” Schrag tells the paper. “The one thing the president really needs to do now is to begin the process of shutting down the conventional coal plants. Politically, the White House is hesitant to say they’re having a war on coal. On the other hand, a war on coal is exactly what’s needed.”

Great.

Because this position is placing us directly in the path of Conflict Oil.

As opposed that the oil we possess if but only we had federal “permission.”
