I haven't verified it, but I wouldn't be surprised if he did say that. McCain, the President and others have done everything and said everything to try to force this amnesty bill down our throats. Thankfully it didn't work.

And about the violence in the streets . . . it's a hot, sunny day here in the big PHX, and as of yet I don't see any violence. Too hot!

this was a bad bill for a LOT of reasons. amnesty being only one.
