Immigration Bill Killed

This is the best news I’ve heard all week:

President Bush’s immigration bill suffered a crushing defeat Thursday in the Senate, when members voted against advancing the controversial legislation.

The tally was 46 to 53, 14 votes shy of the 60 needed to end debate.

However, the war against amnesty still isn’t over. I’ve personally been in a foul mood concerning how out of step the Bush Administration has been on immigration reform. Until the borders are secured and current laws are enforced, true immigration reform will never take place. How anybody is unable to grasp those simple facts is a mystery to me.
