“Shamnesty” Bill Cloture Vote Passes
Update (1:23 p.m.):  Per the same website (MichelleMalkin.com), Cochran voted Nay on the cloture vote…So I’ll have to strike through some of what I wrote below…I reserve the right to leave some of what I said standing - for now - until the passage vote is done.
According to this article at MM.com, the shamnesty bill cloture vote has passed, 64-35. That means the bill gets pushed further into review by the Senate. Among the votes for cloture? Mississippi’s own Thad Cochran and Trent Lott.
Now is the time, folks of Mississippi. I dare say that Cochran & Lott have been in Washington too long. They are ignoring their constituents to their own political peril. (Although Trent Lott has been pretty much useless since the whole Strom Thurmond gaffe). I, personally, am committed to seeing new leadership for Our Great State. If our senators have no respect for our intelligence and our desires for this nation, then they need to go. It’s that simple. And we have the power to change the landscape.
We can always send Trent Lott back to tend to his goats.
