Senate Says No to Border Security First

They are hell-bent on their “guest worker” program, or AMNESTY for us ordinary Americans.

The Senate defeated, 55 to 40, a proposal by Senator Johnny Isakson, Republican of Georgia, that lawmakers demand that border-security measures be in place before beginning a guest-worker program of the kind envisioned by President Bush.

The 55 senators rejected Mr. Isakson’s argument that, if the Congress did not act now, it would have to a decade or so from now, and that “instead of 10 million or 12 million, it will be 24 million” illegal immigrants at issue.

So if our greedy politicians finally get their way, this is what we will get.

    55-40, huh? Guess the Republican minority in the Senate really has its work cut out for them, right?
