1. Debunking R's statements
about Medicare, confronting them with their own past statements. He is becoming one of the main point men in this debate, at least in front of the cameras.

2. Coburn being an asshole
"I would like to ask the Senator from MA how many Medicare patients did he care for?" Now being a quadruple a-hole "the senator did not yiled to me, I am not going to yield to him"

3. What a jerk. Then he goes on to complain...
...about "guv'mint"... saying it just like that which, I'm sure, was meant for his base at home. Disgusting.

4. Got back
to my computer just in time to hear JK saying something like "I don't know in how many lawsuits he has been involved, but he is willing to discuss and vote on malpractice issues"

6. Kerry got him later
asking why as he didn't drive a bus he feels comfortable voting on transportation issues, and having not served in the military - voting to send soldiers to war, etc.

8. Yep neatly included in the middle to not give it undue attention
That and the one on not being a lawyer were together.

9. Only heard the lawyer part
thanks for giving the more complete description. Great reply!

Unrelated: if you happen to follow the Senate discussion, do you have any idea what Harkin just announced re the Ben Nelson amendment? I am listening while doing some easy stuff, so my attention is not all on what I hear. Seemed to beone of these non-sensical Senate maneuvers expressed in full-fledged Senate-speak that are hard to impossible to comprehend.
