Ed,
I assume the Email is about Senate Bill S. 2611(Immigration Reform),
Sarbanes, a Democrat, was a co-sponsor. But it occurred to me, which party was the
majority party that got the bill on the Senate calendar, assembled the votes
and passed it? I think we know, but you could find out quickly by talking to
your Senator Lindsay Graham (Republican from South Carolina), or you could
ask Sen McCain (R- Az), or you could ask Sen Frist (Republican Senate Majority
Leader) - all supported and voted for the bill (

00157_
(http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=109&session=2&vote=00157) ) .
I am not an advocate for the bill, but I am an advocate for properly
assigning responsibility for whatever brain-dead thing the Congress comes up with.
There are a whole lot of Republican (and Democrat) Senators and Congressmen
playing duck-and-cover when it comes to immigration, or anything else, but the
party in power is Republican. If the Republicans (e.g. Frist) had not
supported the bill, it wouldn't have happened.
