Not pissed yet? Read on.

Still not pissed at the way the United States Senate is destroying the United States by pandering to the open borders/illegal crowd? Take a gander at this amendment, passed IN A FREAKING REPUBLICAN CONTROLLED SENATE. YES, I'M PISSED! H/T to Michelle Malkin, who continues to be all over the fiasco that is the US Senate's immigration bill.

"Senator Dodd's S.Amdt.4089 contains the following language:
(b) CONSULTATION REQUIREMENT.--Consultations between United States and Mexican authorities at the federal, state, and local levels concerning the construction of additional fencing and related border security structures along the United States-Mexico border shall be undertaken prior to commencing any new construction, in order to solicit the views of affected communities, lessen tensions and foster greater understanding and stronger cooperation on this and other important issues of mutual concern."

"S.Amdt.4188 - Specter: Managers' amendment, a collection of amendments, including Dodd's S.Amdt.4089 that requires local, state and federal governments to consult with Mexican counterpart authorities before commencing new construction, was PASSED on a 56 - 41 vote."

We had all better start calling our Congressmen. It's clear the Senate, even a Republican controlled one, is lost to the dark side.
