The Rocky Road to Shamnesty

The road to Shamnesty may have just gotten a lot tougher.  From the Rocky Mountain News [1]

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. House of Representatives this morning voted to withhold federal emergency services funding for “sanctuary cities” that protect illegal immigrants.

Anti-illegal immigration champion Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., sponsored the measure, which he says would apply to cities such as Denver and Boulder. He was elated by its passage, which stunned critics and supporters alike.

The House passed the amendment, 234 to 189, with 50 Democrats voting in favor.

Tom Trancredo has just become main stream.  If Trancredo can get fifty democrates to deny federal funding to sancutary cities, he can get the same number, or more, to deny Shamnesy to illegals.   What say you Trent Lott?
