It just gets better and better. Last night, the Senate defeated the Coryn ammendment on a 51-46 vote. Senator Cornyn's ammendment said that those convicted of felonies while here as illegal immigrants would be inelligible for the Z-class visas. Apparently Sentors Graham, Hagel, Kyl, Specter, Martinez, McCain, Voinovich, Domenici and Craig agree with the White House and the Democrats that we need more rapists and muggers in this country, as they voted against the ammendment which would prevent them from being elligible for the program.
I guess since I don't want a few more home invasions, a few more kidnappers and a few more habitual drunk drivers, I must be a racist. At least that's what Senator Graham thinks.
Btw, I never thought I would say this, but my hat is off to Senators Feinstein and Boxer. They were the only two Democrats to have the chutzpah to defy Reid and vote in favor of the ammendment, granted they waited until after the nay-voters had the votes....
