WOW!
One of the angriest and fiery displays i have seen on the Senate floor ever.
ANYONE TAPING THIS?? THIS MUST BE PRESERVED!
I'd LOVE TO DISTRIBUTE/HOST A QUICKTIME MOVIE OF THIS SPIRITED STAND HE'S TAKING TODAY!
Please, anyone? Ted's appearance today should be a special Infomercial for the Democratic Party!

Same person. My Senator's full name is Edward Kennedy, but we just call him Ted. :-)

Is there any possibility of finding this in print anywhere on the web for those of us without cable? I'm needing to listen/read the words of a good cheerleader right now!

11. "So you want to vote on something?" |
|
Teddy's best argument (paraphrasing):
"So you want to vote on something? Let's vote on the minimum wage. Oh, no. Can't do that. Let's vote on extending unemployment insurance. Oh, no. Can't vote on that. Let's vote on a hate crimes bill. Oh, no. Can't touch that. "

14. Senator Leahy also did a five star performance....... |

he was as good and if it came down to a vote, I'd have a rough time.
The dems are chewing up the pukes.
