We haven't heard squat from our legislative leaders--House or Senate

[Skidmore]

about Sensenbrenner's meltdown and it's nearly noon (CST) here. Two hours ago, the Dems were slapped around. Someone had better come out swinging and SOON.

1. Conyers

Conyers should blog about it and hopefully AAR will be on top of it.

2. I'm sure Conyers will say something ...

and I am so grateful to him for everything he has done ... but why the f*ck does it always have to be him?!? When are the other Dems going to stand up and fight WITH him? :grr:

[Skidmore]

5. That's exact;y my point.

Legislative leaders should be out there NOW. AND Dean, too.

3. it's Friday

nobody works on Capital Hill Fridays.

Besides, I understand this sort of behavior is ROUTINE in committee meetings when Dems try to get a hearing. Nothing new there--we just haqppened to see it on C-Span. Mostly they do it in secret.

7. Because there is now a video record of this is why they

should get out there.

4. What are you talking about?
