6. I wonder why they haven't recycled that page from the pukes?
That would be a marketing and P.R. coup if someone in the party would turn that one around them. I know of what I speak!

4. I do so love
A really and truly righteous rant.

I've listened to him go off once or twice, and last week's rant was a keeper.

7. Straight up or down vote, says Sherrod Brown. He's tag-teaming with
Kennedy to great effect!

8. I think it was mentioned yesterday on AAR I can't recall right now
but all this stammering over this Minimum Wage Bill is the way the repigs don't want to discuss the Iraq resolution, the repigs are dragging their feet on this, holding things up again.

10. I heard him and he is angry. They are obviously just wasting the
Senates time. But the pugs should beware: We in America are not as dumb as we look. We know that they are just plain greedy and angry that the voters took their candy away.

11. The rethugs were/are stalling because they don't want to deal with Iraq
(that's the speculation anyway). Well, too bad, Iraq is the afternoon topic du jour regardless of how this vote shakes out.
