There's a line in a movie ...

After the Supreme Court overturned most of the Arizona " Paper Please" law, it didn't take long for both the Democrats and GOP to spin the decision. And in truth, they both came to the same conclusion: A better immigration policy needs to be enacted. But where Democrats said that Congress needs to pass the Dream Act, the GOP said that it was the President's lack of leadership that was stopping any immigration bill from passing. Now, what they didn't say today was that it the Dream Act passed the House, and got 55 votes in the Senate. But since GOP Senators banded together and filibustered the bill, it never passed. So, in truth, it was 45 GOP Senators that stopped the Dream Act from becoming law, overturning the will of a majority of House members and Senators, and nothing to do with a lack of leadership by the President. Listening and watching some of these same GOP Senators today, I was reminded of a line in a movie I watched this weekend, The Outlaw Josey Wales. And so to those people in the GOP that were blaming the President knowing it was Senators in their party that caused the bill to fail, I want to tell them the same line that was said in the movie: "We have a saying here in Missouri, Senator. Don't try pissing on my back and tell me it's raining."
