DURBIN is on the Senate floor!!! He's NOT going to apologize, IS HE???

[in_cog_ni_to]

Friggin' Warner is taking Durbin's comment out of context too! Durbin speaks next!!!

[BrklynLiberal]

1. Sure hope not. He has nothing to apologize for.

[NYPagan]

2. Durbin is a Patriot, he will not recant the truth!

He calls it as he sees it and he sees the truth. Butchers of washington beware!

[NYPagan]

15. Never doubt the great ones. Kerry, CLinton Durbin...

They say what they mean and mean what they say. Absolutey honest and forthright. Why, why can't all politicians be like these esteemed leaders?

[Robbien]

3. He has nothing to apologize for. I hope he gives them hell.

You go Sen. Durbin.

[in_cog_ni_to]

4. The statement I made was about an FBI report. n/t

[LightningFlash]

5. Report the truth, Durbin....

It is your elected duty now do it, no more rolling over.

[Inland]

6. Durbin isn't scared of Bush, or Hannity, or any of those other dirtbags.

He said what he meant and isn't going to take it back. He'll probably repeat it today!

[fedupinBushcountry]

7. Applause

:applause: :applause: :applause:

He is reading it again, stick it where the sun don't shine,Warner and the rest of you morans.

[LightningFlash]

10. Good job Senator Durbin!!!!!

You are a true patriot, stand up to them and shout down the lies.

11. FANTASTIC!

Fuck you, GWB, you war-mongering corporate whore! Fuck you, Ins-hannity, you sniveling little prick! Let freedom ring!

[in_cog_ni_to]

14. Hahahahaha! Warner's getting his ass kicked!

:bounce:

[Proud_Lefty]

8. Yep - Just Keep Repeating It

That's the only way they understand anything.

[in_cog_ni_to]

9. He's reading the entire statement he made on the 14 th? He's reading

the FBI report he had read that day. The TORTURE report from the FBI. Then his remark about it. ...if I read this to you and not told you it was an FBI report.....you know the rest.

WOOHOO!!!! Go Dick! He's PISSED that his words were twisted!

[kaitykaity]

12. Nope. Not backing down.

http://www.c-span.org

He's on CSPAN-2. And he's on FIRE.

[in_cog_ni_to]

13. I'm so relieved. WHY, why, why did I doubt my Senator?!

I should have known better! Go Dick!

[in_cog_ni_to]

16. WARNER IS CALLING THE FBI REPORT...an ALLEGATION!!!!!!

He does not accept everything the FBI says as fact! What a BASTARD!

[iwantmycountryback]

17. Now he's wondering if Durbin should even have that memo?

What an asshole! From "don't take it at face value" to "should you even have that?" Does he have ADD or something?

[kentuck]

21. Durbin said the information was received by...

the Freedom of Information Act..

[kaitykaity]

18. Warner -- The Administration investigating itself??

You doddering old fool.

[Old and In the Way]

19. Warner is dissembling, as usual.

Challenged his report, Durbin got the goods, now Warner says this administration is "carefully scrutinizing"....a year later. Whatta toady.

[iwantmycountryback]

22. Is McConnell wearing a pimp suit or something?

What a tool.

[iwantmycountryback]

23. Hey McDumbass!

Shut the fuck up! Durbin knows what he's talking about and he's talking about torture not murder you fucking dumbass! Let him talk!

[BrotherBuzz]

20. Durbin should apologize....

for not stating the truth sooner!

[in_cog_ni_to]

24. Durbin...he just got a copy of the FBI memo......

this info was disclosed in a letter to Rider (?)(someone) July14, 2004 it was released under the Freedom of information Act. The administration has never questioned it.

Warner..this is still under investigation.

Durbin...what I described was the APPROVED interrogation techniques...approved by this administration. This is no surprise. The admin knew this for a complete year and these techniques were approved by the administration!

McConnell is in on it now...:grr: He has a "problem" with Durbin's words. Do you stand by your statement of comparing torture in Gitmo to oppressive regimes?

Durbin said yes. Comparison related to the interrogation techniques. I visualized these techniques to be used by those repressive regimes.

GO DICK!!!! He's not taking back his statement....yet. ;)

[LightningFlash]

25. Of course that's the truth.

Warner is plain wrong. And their investigation has not changed that.

[in_cog_ni_to]

26. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! DO NOT APOLOGIZE, DICK!

This DRAMATIC outrage is HYSTERICAL!!!!!

[NewInNewJ.]

30. They are covering

little georgies ass as well as their own. We have go to keep the heat on.

[kaitykaity]

27. Ganging up on him.

Warner repeating the "unconfired, uncorroborated" canard
again.

Durbin not apologizing. Not backing down.

[in_cog_ni_to]

34. He's pointing out that that report was a YEAR OLD and the administration

never questioned it. Warner..."The damage you are doing to our troops in Gitmo!".....

Durbin.....The damage was done when we changed our interrogation policy! GO DICK!

OH GREAT! MORE Senators are on the floor to speak! Just can't wait to hear this SHIT!

[Pithy Cherub]

28. Stand Tall Senator Durbin!

They need two republicans to debate this... Durbin should continue to stand firm and then ask them to open bi-partisan congressional investigations immediately!

[iwantmycountryback]

29. Both of them keep avoiding the Q about whether the U.S should be doin that

More obsessed with being high-and-mighty and whatever total BS.

[Old and In the Way]

31. Typical Republican strawman deflection of what Durbin said.

They won't admit his analogy on tortue is correct. And what danger are the troops put in when we tortue these people in this manner....they ought to be apologizing to the troops for allow these interrogations to endanger their welfare.

[iwantmycountryback]

33. Durbin's hammering them on that

But Warner keeps managing to avoid that subject. Just 1 FBI agent! *flailing arms* We don't know if it's true! *flailing arms*

[kentuck]

32. They are questioning him like he's in a court of law...

following the talking points of right-wing radio. If it was left to them, the information would never come out...

[Melodybe]

39. i love it call Durbin and thank him, # 202 224 3121

Just ask for Senator dick Durbin and you'll be immediately sent to his office.

YaY!!!! Fuck ya! Democrats with Balls who knew!!!

Way to go Dean for showing them the way!

[kaitykaity]

35. Drubin nailed Warner about the due process not afforded

to the detainees in US custody.

SLAM!!!

[in_cog_ni_to]

36. He didn't back down! I'm so proud of him!!!

He's talking about how we should NEVER have changed the interrogation techniques.

[in_cog_ni_to]

40. GIVE 'EM HELL HARRY!!!! Reid is in the HOUSE (SENATE!)

The repuke are a noise machine. The more the prez falls in the polls the louder the noise machine!!!! This is all an act from the WH because of all the trouble he's in. HA!

[LightningFlash]

43. Bring it on and pound them back into submission!!!!

You are awesome Senator Durbin, finally doing your job!!!! I've never heard you so outspoken since I listened to George Galloway!!!

:D :patriot: :patriot:

[tsuki]

37. And now we know how the Corporate Propagandists will avoid

talking about 1/2 million signatures and the DSM.

[LightningFlash]

44. By saying its a year old? NT.

LOL it couldn't get anymore sad. Watch them tear eachother up. :applause:

[tsuki]

51. No, they will attack Durbin unmercifully. And the Sheeple Press

will be there to aid and abet.

[Nordmadr]

38. Could they possibly badger him anymore?

Mr. Durbin, tell them to go fuck themselves. ok can't do that...

Tell them, This is a publicly released document, if some regular guy can talk about it around the watercooler, you can talk about it on the damn senate floor.

When Americans torture, you can not help but compare them to other torturers.

Ohhh...they just try to make you seem anti-American or soldier...as a veteran...that REALLY pisses me off!!

Olaf

[NewInNewJ.]

42. Sn. Reid is up

Said the more Pres. Bush's polls fall the more the right bring up things to attack the left

[iwantmycountryback]

41. Reid's already in the midst of a great speech

Fuck it man, I want this guy to be President. He's genuinely pissed about the Right-wing's bullshit.

[in_cog_ni_to]

47. He's defending Durbin....Harry's a stand-up guy!

Durbin will be my friend for an eternity. Awwwwwww! That's so sweet! :loveya:

[in_cog_ni_to]

45. Harry Reid is talking about the war, schools, the environment,

the deficit, 7 TRILLION dollar deficit. This is all to take attention away from their bad policies. They are focusing on my friend, Dick Durbin, instead.

[xray s]

46. He is my Senator

And I am soooooo proud of him!!!!

[Melodybe]

49. Fuck ya! About fucking time!

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause:

Kick for Durbin and Reid!

[kentuck]

48. Byrd is talking about Father's Day...

Where is he going?? He's a wise old bird...

[in_cog_ni_to]

50. Senator BYRD! is now on the floor!

I wonder what he'll talk about. Father's Day....this will go somewhere REALLY COOL! Byrd is a master of the english language and a great story teller. ah ha! Economic worries! Here we go! Hiring is weak. Outsourcing jobs creates heartburn..

He is so awesome.
