Blow to Bush as Immigration Bill Crashes Down
"The US Senate dealt a severe blow to President George W. Bush Thursday, blocking a landmark immigration reform seen as one of his last, best hopes for a legacy-boosting second term victory. Senators voted 53 to 46 against keeping the bill alive, a stunning repudiation of the attempt to grant a path to citizenship for 12 million illegal immigrants. The move likely ends Senate action on the issue before 2009," writes Agence France-Presse.
