Senate To America: Ha Ha, Better Learn Spanish!
Few things have united Americans as much as the Illegal Alien Amnesty Bill of 2007. Almost everyone is against it. Millions have angrily called their senators and representatives, tens of thousands have protested around the country, and 80% of those polled oppose it -- 80% of voters , anyway.
But a full 100% of agribusiness, construction and service-sector corporations support the bill, so the Senate just put it back on track with a 64-35 vote.
Oh, and the new version of the bill would require the illegals to go back to Mexico and apply for a work permit or something, which means nobody's actually going to do it and everything will stay just the same. Hooray!
