America Is Having A Going Out of Business Sale

Here's how the auctioning off of America is going for those of you who are interested.

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. I have added the roll call vote so you can see who was casting lots for the garments of Justice.

Voting "yes" were 7 patriotic Democrats and 33 Republicans.

Voting "no" were 55 jackals, 36 Democrats, 18 Republicans and one independent.

Not voting, 5 who had things to occupy them, more important than their nation's security.
