But you evidently didn't even read my post. The vote was taken yesterday, while I was live blogging it. So you might save yourself some time and move on to the next issue, doubtless there are other amendments to this bill that you will dislike equally as much as this one.

How can you possibly be so uninformed?! That's very depressing. Added: And your spelling and grammar is awful. I really, really hope that you are a student, not an employee or, God help us, a teacher. My gosh, you work at a school? How can you possibly be so uninformed?! That’s very depressing.

Previous immigrants learned it without receiving $500 dollars of taxpayer money. 2. The vast majority of people in this country disagree with almost everything you commented. They are mad at their Senators because their Senators are catering to people who broke our laws, disrespected our country, and are driving down wages. All the polls show that 60-70% of people, including legal immigrants, agree there is way too much immigration, illegal immigration should not be tolerated and that English should be required. 3. Our economy will not fail; immigrants take out much more than they put in. Mass immigration is nothing more than corporate welfare that hurts workers. 4. Mexico's laws are FAR more strict, even harsh, toward illegal immigrants and even LEGAL immigrants. Go protest Mexico. 1.

Excuse my spelling as i am writing this in a hurry and out of pure anger and astonishment. Look at these ammendments! What has america come to, have we really lowered ourselves to making english the "national language". Senator Inhofe is insane to think that americans will actually believe him and continue to go along with his absurd ideas. We are going to punish people because they dont speak english and only give them 500 dollars to learn it! What we are doing is telling immigrants "listen you arent good enough to be american and basically its impossible to pass the citizen test unless your a us history scholar. My father is an immigrant has lived in this country for 30 years and speaks fluent english but 30 years ago he could barely write his name in english. It takes time to learn it and this ammendment, the Inhofe amendment should be stopped the bush administration should be investigated, bush should be impeached. he has gone toooo far this time come on people act do something what happend to the democracy we once believed in these people are supposed to serve US! not ignore us and do what ever they want.... stand up to this and fight because i cant bare to see anymore....America is in a deep deep whole because of this man don't isolate us from the world we are going to need them in order to get out of this whole Bush has dug for us. Kicking immigrants out of our country.... our economy will fail without them because Americans are too good to do the dirty work we continue to forget that we were all once immigrants and this country was a land of immigrants once. People need to open up their eyes realize that Bush has changed the meaning of demcoracy, taken us into a war that should never happened, has the lowest approval rating ever of any president, is a complete dumbass, and has oppressed the people who go against him....

But I'm glad I'm not the only CSPAN junkie. It's kind of a sick obsession, really. I know it's a train wreck in progress but for some twisted reason I want to watch anyway. So how DO they work it out when two conflicting amendments pass? Committee? Hate it when that happens. But I’m glad I’m not the only CSPAN junkie. It’s kind of a sick obsession, really.

I watched the whole dang thing and had to be on the phone near the end of the vote, and I missed it! Well, something good to show from all the bloviating. I swear if we could harness the hot air coming out of politicians, there would be no energy crisis! Good job, thank you!
