Reply #141: It is going to the Senate Floor for debate, and amendments will be offered.

[L. Coyote]

The Dems and Rs have agreed to limit the number of amendments to vote on. It was being filibustered to death with amendment after amendment by opponents. Then they were unable to get the 60 votes to end debate so it could proceed. Reid took it off and agreement has been reached to bring it back to the floor.

So now, the question to ask is, what did you find unacceptable in Bush's proposed language after reading it?

Is this a draconion police state law? Do you think anyone who disobeys the command of an officer should get 5 years?

As I read this bill, if a border patrol officer told you to "Sit down," and you did not, you could go to jail. If passed, instead of going to jail for a crime, you could go to jail for not obeying a command.
