I could give a shit about the Republican party or the Democrats or Reid and Maccain and their grandmothers or their reputation. At the end of the day we all know if they vote and it fails it'll be years before they try anything again. So I rather have a sure answer for my life than let it go down the drain just so Republicans can get a little more bad rep. Because honestly itll be very little bad rep if they vote now and they all go against it. The media will twist shit around and make it seem like they just didnt think that the bill moved forward was "just" (like they did in 2007), they will still have their teabagger community(which is only getting happier by the more conservative the party gets) and they will also still have the hispanic community who already have their papers and could give two shits about immigrants (Cubans, Puerto Ricans, etc.) and we will not have shit and basically will all get deported. So I really don't want them to move anything forward just so it can fail.
EDIT: sorry for the foul mouth lol.... Im just getting more and more frustrated with every news I see about immigration. >=S
