Sound Advice But Will Senate Listen?

J.J. Jackson* | April 10, 2006

Probably not, but Peter T. King (R-N.Y.) has offered up his opinion anyway

A key House member yesterday warned the Senate that they must not be intimidated by rallies in 60 cities this week against immigration reform legislation pending in Congress.

Republican Rep. Peter T. King, chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, says that he expects “several thousand people” will protest his district offices in New York but that “you can’t allow that to intimidate you.”

“The Senate, I think, was quite frankly intimidated by having hundreds of thousands of people in the streets waving flags, but I don’t think we should pass legislation or devise legislation based on how many people you can get out into the street,” the New York Republican told “Fox News Sunday.” - Washington Times

With more protests planned today no doubt the high and mighty Senators, detacted from reality, will be hard pressed to take this advice.
