#1 On Fox, yesterday, they interviewed a guy who said the fence bill design is a 3-layer thingy. Not as robust as what he had advocated, but substantial.

For the first time in forever, I offer kudos to Frist & the Senate Pubs for guiding this to an up or down vote - something the Dhimmis worked feverishly to prevent, from all accounts. Once it was there, they had to put up or shut up - and we see the results. There is a core of safe-seat Dhimmi asstards who do all the screeching and spewing - trying to provide MSM sound bytes and cover for the cowards by steering everything to die in committees.

It's good to have an enemy who's effectively a clusterfuck gaggle of gutless turds.

Melike.

#2 Turds are best served at room temperature.

#3 From PowerLine's take on this:

"Eight Democratic senators who supported the bill last night [actual vote] switched their position from the previous day, when they voted [cloture vote] to block the fence. They are Sens. Barbara Boxer of California, Thomas Carper of Delaware, Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York, Christopher J. Dodd of Connecticut, Tom Harkin of Iowa, Herb Kohl of Wisconsin, Barack Obama of Illinois and Charles E. Schumer of New York."

I have a list of those I'd most like to see at room temperature, lol.

#5 Let's see them actually build it though. I suspect this thing will be "under construction" for years.

#6 LOTR - your skepticism is valid. That said, I don't see this lingering

#7 I wonder whether the construction contractor will be driving a van to the local spot to hire day laborers.
