We already know why it failed with the attachement so now if it comes as a stand-alone, lot of stuff will clear in the bill. |

OMFG (I know that I'm being a bit blasphemous) - someone, anyone, just to have a bit of comedy on this crap day, tell me why do YOU believe this? He cannot get the job done. Democrats are asking to help THEM stay in office in exchange for NOTHING. They want to go out and campaign on their achievements and they've achieved nothing for immigration reform. President Obama and the leadership have given us failure after failure for the last 2 1/2 years. Does anyone know of an employee who can keep a job with the promise to his employer that the will do it SOMEDAY? Not sure when. Can't promise you that he will. But he can try to do it. No guarantees. |
Put a gun to the republicans face and ask them politely to vote yes or else?
No matter what legislation it is republicans have consistently voted NO, NO, and NO.
It's almost as if you guys believe Obama, Durbin, and Democrats are some sort of super gods that can solve and do anything they want with a blink of an eye.
But, who am I kidding? I am sure things would be much better if the republicans were in control and McCain/Palin were in office.

After all, if DREAM fails alone, they can add it to CIR. Right?????????
What they are saying is that they cannot help with immigration reform if the Reps don't want to help too. Reps say they won't until the country is sealed. But we have support for DREAM now. How many times do we need to rehash this situation?

So I am not saying the Democrats should not be held accountable for their promises but lets also be realistic here. This is politics. No matter how reasonable and sensible Democrats and Obama have been toward trying to form bipartisanship, the answer has been NO by republicans who have moved to the far-right thanks to the (tea party)
However, It was this statement i was replying to:
"President Obama and the leadership have given us failure after failure for the last 2 1/2 years"
