By their fruits…

Twelve of the 46 Republican Senators voted for cloture on S.1639 today. That is, in support of a bill which would very likely have set the seal on America’s transformation into a Third World Spanish-speaking slum. They deserve to be remembered. Most have been noticed by VDARE.com in the past.

[2] Larry Craig Idaho

[3] Lindsey Graham South Carolina

Judd Gregg New Hampshire

[4] Chuck Hagel Nebraska

[5] Jon Kyl Arizona

[6] Trent Lott Mississippi

Richard Lugar Indiana

[7] Mel Martinez Florida

[8] John McCain Arizona

Olympia Snowe Maine

[9] Arlen Specter Pennsylvania

Special mention should be made of [10] Sam Brownback, of Kansas, who first voted for cloture and then changed his mind on seeing it was losing. (Hat tip, [11] A Certain Slant of Light)

In time it will become clear how the very considerable credit due to those patriots who defeated this measure should be apportioned. Alabama’s [12] Jeff Sessions was clearly a hero. So, refreshingly, was South Carolina’s [13] Jim DeMint, barely featured here in the past.
