" Well we had area there there's a conference this morning and there was emotion to -- it very simple one sentence motion to say that we were caught go on record -- Republican conference in opposition to this particular piece of legislation. And there were three or four people -- raised a lot of tell about it rate it being want Illinois. And -- and it did it along that the law the."

" He's your local Ted Kennedy in the house right. He's forming the colorful role of Ted Kennedy in the House Republican Caucus go ahead."

" Correct -- they'll read the we didn't have a quorum eventually he -- and so that at 530 -- Calling another conference hopefully -- and devote eight you're right I urgent just last. June 2 or or kmart urged talking about what slept in the Senate there's been another. Vote is very important. And it you know we we had the cloture vote to proceed there at one that we just. We have another vote would be a motion to go -- it. Well that'll be votes so you know number oh. So that not important one but then that the next one that is a budget point of order. And and that -- require 60 votes. See it's like bill -- the way you think people like -- great. On the you know on a Budget Committee. It certainly think he can be changed on that alone because of budget busting thing in cute but you -- courts."

" But he's not that he's known that Tom -- estimates historically he's just on the he's on the bandwagon to oblivion with -- all the rest of these netware Republicans."

" But maybe look at broke a way out let them read it maybe it gives to -- I don't know that you quoted the right way and the -- quote so what you know when the bill could not go forward it actually voted the right way. He voted -- to keep it."

" That's right as the bald is this the -- that they're talking about a national review -- on Thursday. Though is this going to be on Thursday or is this going to be today the vote you just talk about."

" I don't know that would not be good days but court order not they're going to -- and then of course your party. Most sometime between now is team but they're all hope that your commitment. Have to be debated -- so some of them might ask. Aunt or fail -- doing well cause somebody else they hope it. That path or get -- won't work. I mean there's there are things can happen out on day between now and -- final passage. And then it if -- get here. -- actually hear it out and and the first thing anybody in any member can usually done but the chairman of the the Appropriations Committee wait. -- weight -- key is that what usually has the right to look at any but he can do with -- and that's -- it violet -- privileged motion -- to be voted on by the out. And usually. The because everybody on the Ways and Means Committee vote as a bloc. Yeah protect their domain to protect their jurisdiction which are saying is that still has. Revenue raising. And it and -- or because the constitution it revenue raising bill can only originate out of that house is built. Cannot go forward senate bill would does it. That is what anybody can do. It's privileged vote and we have a vote so there's another and it if the entire -- committee vote in bloc which is due out -- done it -- but. Republicans Democrats all voted for this because it's say jurisdictional issue. Then then of course -- stop their two so there are places along the road here where this thing could get thrown out keep hope. Alive."

" You don't sound very confident though."

" Well it's great. Visit the other side the other area."

" The bill passed it lingers weight over there the it because he says go ahead with this because I felt so vulnerable freshman I don't want to put them on -- and I need I think at Yuri Republicans. In -- that Republicans that would happen that thick -- with another bill. Somebody on the house side may even a Republican comes up with them and it's all been forced and may yet tightening -- guest workers something properly about agricultural. That they'll have to go to -- her practice that is born. And conference committee will come back at all. -- at republic it's ridiculous because -- you're saying what this bill that didn't come out just exactly the way it is about it you know. But trapping many reports are."

" Much and is easy to build this is the bill the -- die that they are they going to GM this ruled the American that this is a bill to. It's going to explode certainly going to terminate the Republican Party and it's going to -- it's got a chance of terminating the entire. -- the the entire way the country's structured right now for sure."

" It remotely Bernama product but again -- like terminator a love that what's so art and that is part where -- torment grosses. It won't stop its network you can't reason with this."

" that's really it."

" is the Serb picnic but they basic be that bad but you know on the -- in from."

" Okay okay so what should what should the EU which begin at Tom tancredo Republican candidate for president I can't believe Brownback voted. Voted to push this thing forward I mean I I know his campaign isn't really you know hitting the high spots by the what is he thinking now he's got I thought it was I thought it was for added that he was against that now we see what is he John Kerry."

" a short at any now we know he's always word again is that a yes it is I would call a lot."

" And and best get a date said -- voted spokesman that the leaning against it probably won't be either for the vote because campaign now which one of these boat maintenance I don't know what that we've described but the important today. He certainly did go back. And I'd say that vote with if you had an answer we -- great that there still. Three or four ways he can redeem himself and -- try him."

" Maine declared that this sanctuary state for awhile back."

" Yeah but that's I don't think that really represents the the feelings -- percentage of the people in the state and I and I and Olympia -- mean what is -- what does -- think it up -- but more more specifically Susan Collins who's up for real action she's -- she's already -- you know Republican of the democratic congressman Andrews has already announced he's running against -- is -- the way -- fire -- going into the re election year."

" I think -- fire -- the current treatment she fired up though don't kid oh this is this is just I guess."

" Act that this statement made by the people -- you know who are all these people calling -- would do things in talk radio poster it's that. The people who with the talk radio are not citizens there the from another planet somewhere and what -- have they got to contribute is to this debate in this. These are things that people had -- at that is if they not indicative of what the problem is around strike where you become so insulated. From your own constituents it from a majority of Americans and take on this. This or omnipotent and omniscient you were all going at all are well. And nobody can tell you anything because after all you are and in the most. Schools to -- the world and that means that the rest of the -- partner --"

" And Tom tancredo do these people think they're going to be exempt from from from the the amazing problems that this legislation is going to create for the next under order for a four for -- Rest of our all of our lives but they figured it."

" They think it is expedia. They think that they are somehow going to be able witnesses what their constituents and still and make all these funders the big money guys -- That's it immediately what it's -- next election who. -- what you can't tell me that. A majority of folks that there have have analyzed this in terms exactly when it will because if you do there's no way. -- it is still calling up the good America I mean an order saying it is dramatic and bombastic but it is I gotta tell you this is so dangerous that this has that enormous implications this country and I don't know. How I do not know how we come back. If we if this thing passed. You know our credit for president right I'm not sure what I can tell the American people I do. To change the course we were we -- are -- We can't. We can't say don't -- elect me about reverse you know -- are we going to reverse amnesty how I would do that there's no executive order and it's -- to think long and hard about what the president can do to change the course of action that the global -- on the court to prevent the that this bill will report."

" A -- forget they the Republicans being overwhelmed by a low incumbent democratic voters from a south of the border I mean why would anyone no offense Tom why would he -- memorable for a Republican for president again. Afta as this is the ultimate betrayal of the American people."

" It's absolutely true at -- I don't play in the single person is that your old budget -- you know what I'm. I wouldn't -- saw I understand exactly if you understand the frustration. And you know it -- from the party standpoint. The ultimate know everybody who -- this bill will thank the Democrats epic but it hate it booklet a Republican. The -- the president support push wheat is that the ultimate no win situation for the party and the ultimate no win situation for this country much more importantly."

" And the president today admitted it was an amnesty"

" well but he spoke in -- argue with them but said that. I think it it it probably hit it."

" I know I -- I -- you gotta run -- we appreciate -- being whether split you know it's again don't don't don't give up let me just thought battling away so called life that we ought to call Greg. Collins snow I guess is well right."

" And that isn't commanding the you don't have to call Bernie Sanders Bernice -- did the right thing but just give. After -- credible don't just turned upside down a site now are all okay."
