If anything, this will make sure that Democratic legislative efforts will completely tank.

Everyone else complaining about waiting until the lame-duck session: Why are you complaining?? I'm sure i'm not the only one waiting for CIR or the Dream Act to pass; heck, I've been living like this for 18 years. I've put my life on hold for a couple of years now as I'm sure many of you have, but jumping to the point of calling Graham gay or bashing Climate Change just because it doesn't fit our agenda. In the eyes of the American people, we're of little to no importance, i've come to terms with that...with that said, I understand that CIR isn't the top priority of this nation; so I honestly see why immigration reform is on the backburner. If you don't want to wait, fine, walk away...if you want to wait then sit tight. It's bound to happen one way or another, perhaps not a sweeping bill like the '85 amnesty, but something will pass. Getting all ill-tempered about it isn't going to do us any good.
