What can the current freaks sneak in in two months?

[lonestarnot]

They are in power until what day in January?

1. I am serious and nobody answered me.

7. I'm afraid to say it out loud or even to type it.

War with Iran. :scared:

[carpetbagger]

2. A new defense secretary.

That and a budget (most of the govt. is on continuing resolution).

Not much else, truth be told.

[Robbien]

3. Cheney keeps talking about doing away with SOX

the Sarbanes-Oxley Act

It is the one which places restrictions on publically held companies, an anti-fraud act.

Cheney wants it gone. I fear it may be in trouble during these two months.

5. Sheeeet! This must be stopped! Dems are safe to shut them

down with a standoff if they get to pushy on this one.

[Robbien]

8. The WH is already pushing through stuff

They put Bolton up for the UN again

They want to pass the spying bill again

and I've been watching the free trade agreements situation with Latin America. Bush wants to push through several FTAs.

There is plenty of damage to be done before December 31st and this Congress has been known to work fast when they got alot of dirty work to get done.

4. I don't know but I'm glad you asked...

I've been wanting to ask this question all day because I fear they're going to do something fucked up.

[lonestarnot]

6. Not getting much response, but I hope they are paying attention.

[ComerPerro]

9. you mean short of overturning election results and swearing in Repigs?

[Vinca]

10. Here's my theory.

They're going to go in and try to pass all of Pelosi's first 100 hour measures to prevent the Democrats from taking credit for them.

[lonestarnot]

11. I have no idea what they are going to try to ram down our throats,

but I bet whatever it is, I won't like it one teeny weeny bit.

12. Bolton and Domestic Surveillance Program

immediately after acting 'humble' and talking about bi-partisanship today.
