TRAITORS LOSE. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Quit while you are BEHIND Kennedy. **** Senate blocks immigration bill seattlepi.nwsource.com/national/1151AP_Congress_Immigration.htmlBy JULIE HIRSCHFELD DAVIS ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER WASHINGTON -- President Bush's immigration plan to legalize as many as 12 million unlawful immigrants while fortifying the border collapsed in the Senate on Thursday, crushing both parties' hopes of addressing the volatile issue before the 2008 elections. The Senate vote that drove a stake through the delicate compromise was a stinging setback for Bush, who had made reshaping immigration laws a central element of his domestic agenda. It could carry heavy political consequences for Republicans and Democrats, many of whom were eager to show they could act on a complex issue that has sparked deep public concern.
