Gang of Ocho winners chant 'si se puede!' on US Senate floor as elected representatives of US taxpayers gleefully transfer more US citizen wages to non-working illegal aliens in the name of tolerance and compassion

5/21/13, "Crowd Chants '¡Si, Se Puede!' After Passage of Immigration Bill," Breitbart

"After the Senate Judiciary Committee passed the "Gang of 8" Immigration bill with minimal amendments, the crowd erupted in cheers first chanting "Yes, we can!" After the Chair of the committee, Senator Leahy, announced that he was going to "pretend" to ask for order, the crowd began shouting "¡Si, Se Puede!" Leahy invited the excited audience to approach the Senate committee stands to give and receive congratulations and to celebrate with other Senate members."

  'Si se puede' begins at :35.

The Daily Caller article below omits the most meaningful part of the story which is that "si se puede" was chanted (heard on the CSPAN video posted below) following the chants, 'Yes we can' in English. Breitbart above mentioned it in the copy but Daily Caller didn't for whatever reason:

5/21/13, "Yes we can’ chant breaks out as Senate panel passes immigration bill," Daily Caller

"The Senate Judiciary Committee’s passage of a sweeping immigration bill was expected. But the explosion of chants of “Yes we can! Yes we can!” and “Leahy! Leahy!” came as a surprise.

The “Gang of Eight” bill passed by a wide 13-5 margin early Tuesday evening. Amid the cheering, Democratic committee chairman Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont could be seen motioning spectators to come up and participate in the celebration.

The “Yes we can” chant was made popular by then-Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama in his 2008 presidential run.

Although the legislation seemed to cruise through the committee vote, its future is still in question. The bill faces tough votes in both full Senate and the House of Representatives." via Drudge
