Senate just passed the immigration bill. Before they send it to the House, they should re-name it...

"The 2013 Comprehensive-Slow-Motion-Final-Annihilation-Of-The-Modern-GOP-Once-They-Fail-To-Pass-This-Immigration-Reform-Bill Bill."

Has a ring to it, ya?

in the House. As much as I would like to see immigration reform the prospect of ""The 2013 Comprehensive-Slow-Motion-Final-Annihilation-Of-The-Modern-GOP-Once-They-Fail-To-Pass-This-Immigration-Reform-Bill Bill" would be an acceptable outcome as well.

... naming for those like me in the tech sector who have just recently had their contracts ended, and are out looking for jobs in a more crowded job market that will have lower wages with the newer batch of H-1B visa people that will be coming and working cheaper than us as indentured servants...

Maybe this will be pictures of some of us you'll see in your area...









There's at least a few IT firms that have a sense of ethics here. Hope to find one of them.
