The Discerning Texan
All that is necessary for evil to triumph, is for good men to do nothing.

Don't DREAM It's Over: As I noted on Monday, Amnesty for illegals is rearing its ugly head again, for the third time this year.
It is unbelievable to me that the Democrats continue to try to slip trick legislation under the radar past the American public, and even more unbelievable that some Senate Republicans continue to swim against the strong current of the party base which elected them in the first place. It really is outrageous.
I am concerned; if this monstrosity gets through the Senate, I have no confidence at all that Bush would not sign it. Right now, only 18 Senators have pledged to vote against cloture. It is time once again to get those keyboards and telephones humming folks. Tell your Senators today that the DREAM act needs to--once and for all--have a silver stake driven through its vampire heart. Do it now. And maybe we need to tell the President what we think of this too...

Senators who stated No Position:I'll be getting right to that "Still Awaiting Response". Seriously, I know this is a pain but in baseball if the batter hits it out of the park on the third strike, the first two strikes mean nothing. We need to send a message to Washington, high and hard. It is up to us to take our country back; if we don't, no one will.
