3. This is a pretty bad free-for-all. Apparently GOP is complaining |
|
that the finance committee stimulus package was changed and that they just got the changes (LIHEAP was added)? And now they want to hold it up. Feinstein on now. Interesting battle.

5. The battle is about FISA |
|
Well spotted Dems. This is about wasting time. Mitch the bitch wants immunity for the telecoms companies. It's that simple. Go Barbara!

8. McConnell's gone, Kyl has to take her abuse. She's mocking McConnell |
|
for wanting to "study" the LIHEAP addition to the stimulus package--but everyone knows what LIHEAP is, it's been around for many years. Not much to study, she's saying. He's just stalling.

7. I have the feeling that this |
|
is a dog and pony show so they (Reid, inc) can claim they tried but didn't have the votes, blah, blah, blah or some other excuse for capitulating again.

My senator. Such a fuckwad -- an embarrassing fuckwad. But hey, you useless Jackass: "McCain is a senator also who will be out campaigning tomorrow. Don't put this all on the Dems, you tool."
