Feith's testimony on CSPAN3, veto override on CSPAN2 and IMPEACHMENT on CSPAN1.

[mikelgb]

2. woo hoo

[mod mom]

3. why would the video at c-span appear ~1/2 by 1/2 inch? I've never had this happen before.

[proud2BlibKansan]

4. I don't know. I am watching it on teevee

[librechik]

10. Sirius Radio not carrying it on the Cspan channel

They're playing a repeat of a Pelosi panel on the economy.

[politicallore]

23. A fello Sirius User! I love it!! Stupid MP3s... Get boring

[librechik]

32. I actually still have XM, too, and they are great.

yeah--I like to be surprised sometimes--mp3s can get boring.

[politicallore]

72. Exactly, Nothing Like a live (good) DJ.... XM still have better talk? I switched to SIRI for the mus

music, and enjoy it much better. Talk is still decent...

Here is hoping for a merger!

[Breeze54]

Didn't Kucinich do this a couple of weeks ago and nothing happened?

/cynical

[proud2BlibKansan]

14. Today they are reading them so they go in the official record

[Breeze54]

15. Isn't this the 2nd reading? DK read them once before this, as you know.

:shrug:

Didn't they go into the official record the first time?

[proud2BlibKansan]

19. No they have to be read into the official record

Kucinich was just introducing them before.

[Breeze54]

25. Ok thanks, for giving me the skinny

I probably should've known that was the case.

I seem to be losing track of things.

To many irons in the fire.

:hi:

[librechik]

it's live

[Hope And Change]

16. K & R!

[caledesi]

18. I think that the Dems will have hearings right after the

convention. I am old....that's how it started with Nixon. Impeachment followed. :)

Pelosi knows that peeps are talking about "those spineless Dems."

[proud2BlibKansan]

20. So far Dems voting yes and pukes voting no

procedural vote "on motion to refer"

[wildbilln864]

22. Okay, I admit I'm a dummy on this....

what's "motion to refer" mean, please? Then what happen's if it's refered? :hide:

[Pastiche423]

24. It's referred to the House Judiciary Committee

[wildbilln864]

Thank you again. nt

:hi:

[proud2BlibKansan]

26. I think it means refer to committee

which means investigations begin.

[wildbilln864]

[malaise]

39. Four Rethugs voting to send the bill to the Judiciary Committee

Meanwhile very successful override of Bush's veto of Medicare bill in both the House and Senate.

[Breeze54]

[wildbilln864]

61. duh, yes, sorry ....

[elehhhhna]

"hairy" in Italian

http://babelfish.yahoo.com/translate_txt

[Cleita]

68. I bet it is too.

Also, who were the no shows?

[elehhhhna]

70. Obama, McCain, Kennedy & that Reep who married Elizabeth Taylor, iirc

edit: John Warner

[Pastiche423]

71. Wrong house

Those are senators.

lol @ Reep who married Liz Taylor. That's how I think of him too.

[proud2BlibKansan]

59. Motion to refer passed

It goes to judiciary now. :bounce:

[Breeze54]

63. Hearings about an election year review instead of discussing DK's article?

:wtf:

But C-Span saying that it will be PUBLIC hearings!

[elehhhhna]

65. Does this mean we are holding IMPEACHMENT HEARINGS?

or what? Please, anybody...! I'm trying to stay calm.

[proud2BlibKansan]

66. It goes to the judiciary committee

and they investigate.

[Breeze54]

67. But they willl hold hearings in public this time!!

http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5iE21FOVAfMfEbAE5LDwiYm8fGh4QD91UIKCG0

snip->

This time, the panel will open hearings. But House Democrats emphatically said they will not be about Bush's impeachment, a first step in the Constitution's process of a removing a president from office.

Instead, the panel will conduct an election-year review — possibly televised — of everything Democrats consider to be Bush's abuse of power. Kucinich, a Democrat from Ohio, is likely to testify. But so will several scholars and administration critics, Democrats said.

69. That's good!
