Kennedy: Immigration Will Decide Control of Congress
2006-09-09
Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) warned Republicans to either accept the Senate's version of immigration reform - which includes amnesty for illegal aliens - or risk losing Congress to Democrats in the upcoming mid-term elections.

"If we can't get this Congress to pass fair immigration before now, we'll elect a new Congress in November that will pass it," said Kennedy to a cheering crowd at a rally supporting amnesty for illegal aliens on the National Mall. "We will pass an immigration bill in Congress that is worthy of America."

Thousands of people gathered to hear Kennedy speak in support of the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act (S. 2611), one of two bills currently under consideration by Congress. The turnout was significantly less than the hundreds of thousands predicted by rally organizers.

#8  He may (for once) be right - immigration very well could cost the Republicans control of the House and/or Senate. Many of those Republicans who are AWOL on controlling our border may find themselves out on their butts, as their voters either stay home or vote third party out of utter disgust.
Can we clone Tancredo (& on the other big issue, Coburn?)

#7  Simply listen carefuly, then do the exact opposite of Fat Teddy's wishes.

And we'll all be OK.

#5  Kennedy also used the opportunity to rally for something closer to home when he spotted some of his constituents from Massachusetts.



The ones with full coolers of beer, no doubt...

#4  The problem, teddy, is that most Americans are against amnesty - the figure is 65% or so, IIRC. Your push for amnesty may COST your party anywhere from three to twelve seats. You need to sit down and shut up. Better still, retire, you worthless piece of bloated protoplasm.

#2  Senior gasbag, did you notice that a license for several thousands of immigration protestors in California yielded less than 100?

Put a folk in it, senior.
