It is if it's true, which I don't think it is. Doesn't mean we don't have a chance, though.

Yeah, I'm a little confused about this now, too. It seems like the opposing senators are being really picky about the age limit on the current version of the bill.

So, what's going to happen with the House of Reps tomorrow then?

"Me love you long time"... to President Obama and his party allies if DREAM ACT passes.


If it doesn't, I will fully blame the President and Democrats, because they had almost 2 full years to pass a tiny piece of legislation as this.They could have easily passed it when they had 59 senators and more than enough reps in the house. Yeah sure, the economy and health care reforms took away attention from immigration reform... but really?

It could have taken just a few days and less fuss if they passed it before midterm elections. Unfortunately, we are just a bunch of political toys used to increase votes, that is all.
