Puerto Rico: 51st State?

I heard about this last nite on (shock) Beck. Nada on any MSM broadcasts, yet Congress votes on this today. TODAY.

PR has voted "no" to becoming a State three times. It appears the question posed to its citizens this time will be different.
Q before: Do you want to become the 51st US state? NO
Q now: Do you want to change to a different political status (or something like that -- are you happy with your current status)

Hmmm. Let's see, two extra senators and maybe six Congress reps. And who would they vote for? The libbies of course!

Is Puerto Rico about to become the 51st state?

Until recently Britain was the 51st state wasn't it? oh solly, I mean Iraq.
