Immigration Bill May Be Gaining Support
MacRanger notes Peggy Noonan wants a time out – clearly she wants to bide time.
We should close the border, pause, absorb what we have, and set ourselves to “patriating†the newcomers who are here.
Why the panicked call for a time out? Now the deal is to legalize the illegals if we close the borders? That seems sort of bizarre trade. So what’s up? Another sign is that Nancy Pelosi is confident the House will pass a bill if the Senate does.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi expressed optimism the House would approve a plan to overhaul U.S. immigration law if it gets through the Senate first.
“We want it to be bipartisan and comprehensive,” Pelosi said in an interview on Bloomberg Television’s “Political Capital with Al Hunt,” airing this weekend. Asked if the House would pass the measure currently before the Senate, she said, “with some modification. But we’ll work together in a bipartisan way.”
Tells me something is happening underneath the surface here. I wonder if polls are shifting or something? While a proponent of getting this bill passed, I am still surprised and Pelosi’s confidence in getting it through the house. So apparently the next two weeks in the Senate will be the defining moment on this issue.

Even perfect mind reading has no correlation to worthiness of position and is simply a red herring on your part with no basis.
At least in this thread and others I have noted specific issues with the bill and even proposed potential specific repairs to address the faults.
A review of your history on this issue would show a glaring lack of addressing the specifics, even though many have put forward pointed and specific issues for you to respond to.
Even though you are clearly in the camp of those which polls show across the board have a less than 30% support group you try to paint every one else not in your camp with the colors of the extremists.
This is pure wrongful projection on your part.
In some ways it on some levels is almost as worthy a tactic as those on the extremes both at the far right or left on this question.
You came out swinging on this issue from the start and chose to drive your own wedge.
It is so out of character for you.
As I said before, who stole AJ and what are we gonna have to do to get him back.
SallyVee, you seem to be advocating the position that we should let ourself be invaded in order to get the invaders on our side because so many of them are already here. Brilliant, just damned brilliant!
I want to ask all of you bill supporters a couple of questions, Do you know who George Soros is and what his politics are? and Do you know that he is a strong force behind this bill? and do you support him and his political aims? Does it give you any pause at all that someone who is so openly anti-American is on the same side as you? How do you justify that in your mind?
