1. He's talking about how the RW senators

have WASTED floor time, weeks worth, instead of Homeland Security, education, Medicare, Drugs, Nuclear Waste, Highways, ect. Go, Bob, Go! Let 'em have it!

2. I wish he hadn't voted FOR a shameful waste of time..the anti-gay FMA.

Oh, well.

4. Exactly.

What the hell was up with that? Has anyone heard an explanation from him?

[in_cog_ni_to]

5. I agree.

That was VERY disappointing, but he seems to be the lone Dem to stand up to these fascist bastards on Iraq & the Patriot Act. He's a protector of the Constitution and his voting for the FMA was shocking to me. Very sad.

6. the vote was NOT on the Amendment

it was a procedural vote and Byrd is on the record as being against the Amendment.

9. But voting to end the debate and bring it to a vote isn't exactly friendly

If Kerry had done the same, he would be in deep trouble on this board, at least.

7. He didn't vote for it.

He voted for debate on a dead bill. It will help him at home and not cause him any serious problem.

8. stop

You know he didn't vote for FMA because it never came up for a vote.

3. not to mention wasting time on the FMA

Oh that's right Bobbie voted for it.

10. Now the SEX WITH TURTLES senator on (Cornyn, TX)!!! I wonder where

he left his turtle?

11. It would be really helpful to mention which channel....

I assume you mean cspan, but ........ that's a guess.

There are 3 cspans......

A clue, please?

Thank you.
