Flash: GOP will force new vote on drilling
in Alaska refuge

RAW STORY

Republicans have inserted language into the budget bill that would allow drilling in the Alaska wildlife refuge, RAW STORY has learned. The move would make the matter immune to filibuster, requiring only a simple majority to pass.

Debate on a challenge to the Amendment, lead by Senators Cantwell and Kerry, is expected in the Senate at 5pm EST.

2. when all else fails cheat.
heck just cut to the chase and cheat.

How do these people even look at themselves in the mirror every day? They are the most absurd, corrupt, disgusting excuses of humanity I can think of.
