Clay Pigeon Amendment Released

The Senate actually had to go into hiding recess to finish this monstrosity up. Certainly they couldn\’t allow anyone to criticize their precious bill…after all that would be free speech and a symptom of a representative democracy. And we certainly can\’t have that in Washington DC!!!
Instead, they retreated back into hiding to write up this 373 page amendment. Which will be voted on in less than 48 hours. Considering the amount of bullshit politicians are legally obligated to spew in a given day, anyone think any of the Senators will actually have time to read it all within 48 hours?? If so, I have ski resort in Arizona to sell you. Great deal, just think of all the cheap labor just a couple miles away.
Anyone I have a copy of the amendment and have uploaded it to my servers. You can get a copy here.
UPDATE : I had hoped to be able to start reading through this amendment later tonite and point out some of the critical points, and I still hope to do that. However, for the time being it looks like Capt. Ed has already started doing that and at the time of this posting has already found three \”items of interest\”. So check em out, and hopefully later today I\’ll have my own list.
UPDATE : The clay pigeon amendment is now searchable and linkable thanks to NZ Bear, who does so much and receives so little credit. Ultimately what we need now is hundreds of internet skeet shooters to pick this thing apart. If you spot something interesting, leave a note in the comments or email me.

I read some of the amendment, and I’ve read some blogs about the amendment. There are a lot of folks who are complaining about the fact that they are allowed to change parts of the oath to serve their individual beliefs. But this is not new. The changes in the amendment have been allowed by the INS for years. I don’t agree with them, but my complaint is that the people offering this amendment don’t even agree with the oath itself, at least as it applies to them.
