The ROVE amendment is coming up NEXT on Senate floor!

[in_cog_ni_to]

C-SPAN 2 Harry reid is on the floor now! :woohoo:

[bj2110]

1. Amendment being read, and a vote is upcoming... Frist is a jerk-off

Called it an unfortunate "political" amendment. Hmmm... I'd call much of what transpires on the Senate floor on a daily basis quite "political" myself, wouldn't you?

[YDogg]

5. I wonder how Frist ...

... defines *'s war? The war has had unfortunate worldwide political overtones.

[agingdem]

13. And the Schiavo

thing was what exactly?

[YDogg]

2. More, More!

:-)

[in_cog_ni_to]

3. Reid..."This is a matter of National Security.

This isn't about politics." Frist was whining about having to spend the next 90 minutes on this "political" amendment. :eyes:

[Tommymac]

4. A "Coverup"

An abuse of power - re Bush

[tridim]

6. "This is a coverup and abuse of power"

Reid just said it! :)

[libertypirate]

9. REMEMBER this is all on the record!

[Tommymac]

10. Abuse of Power IS an Impeachable offence!!!!!

on Edit: This is my opinion - Reid did not say this specifaclly.

[catmandu57]

11. I won't be here to find out the results

Where can i find the vote results in the morning?

[in_cog_ni_to]

21. C-SPAN will probably have it or a link to it.

:hi:

[Oreo]

7. Video here

http://play.rbn.com/play.asx?url=cspan/cspan/wmlive/cspan2v.asf&proto=mms?mswmext=.asx

[LSK]

26. hmmm, CSpan or Randi

I'll stick with Randi for now.

[in_cog_ni_to]

8. Harry Reid..."This is what is known as a COVER UP!"

He said they have been dragging this out because they wanted to wait until Supreme Court Justices were appointed to DROWN OUT THIS STORY!!! That info was from a WH insider. :woohoo:

[YDogg]

12. Give 'em Hell, Harry!

;-)

[Oreo]

14. Here comes Normie

Work your magic puppet-boy. You're an embarrassment to Brooklyn and Minnesota

"oxygen is being sucked out of good atmosphere as we get into partisan attacks."

ding ding ding... he said "cool the rhetoric"

[11 Bravo]

19. And Homo Sapiens in general.

[DemonFighterLives]

231. The prime oxygen theif said that?

He is calling Rove a whistleblower from some stupid article he's waving around.
:argh:

[mourningdove92]

15. Cube Rats NEED MORE

PLEASE

[jim3775]

16. Holy shit did you hear that Frist ammendment!

Another attack on Durbin. What a scumbag!

[bj2110]

23. Is there a link anywhere to the text to the Frist amendment? Maybe

someone can rehash it? I missed it.

[jim3775]

29. It was something like:

"Any senator who reads an FBI report on the senate floor which is used for propaganda by a terrorist orginization shall not have access to any further reports."

[sunnystarr]

235. Also any Senator who quotes an FBI agent

on the Senate floor loses access to classified FBI reports.

Of course we pointed out that the Repug senators who were there would have already lost their access.

[in_cog_ni_to]

17. OH PUKE!!!! Coleman on the floor!

:puke:

Now he's saying this is a partisan political attack.

we'll see how partisan and political it is when the administration is INDICTED!

[Tommymac]

22. Coleman is a partisan attack

on reality. Going after Durbin.

[Lone_Wolf]

25. It is a partisan coverup...

The Sen Repukes are part of the problem...

[Idioteque]

18. Is there a way to make a point of order that a quorum is not present...

...and force all Senators to be on the floor?

[LSK]

20. watch as its defeated along straight party lines

The Senate is so predictable nowadays. Well, just remember these votes for the 2006 elections.

[cynatnite]

24. I hope it is defeated.

this senator voted against revoking clearance from anyone who discloses classified information. Sounds good in an election year :evilgrin:

[Quixote1818]

27. Good Point nt

[Tommymac]

28. Win/win for Dems.

:evilgrin:

[Lone_Star_Dem]

31. I agree

All of this is on the record and very easy to bring back up when elections roll around.

[in_cog_ni_to]

30. Durbin's statement was from a report that wasn't classified

http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getpage.cgi?dbname=2005_record&page=S6594&position=all

I have yet to hear them say one freakin' word about the treasonous bastard KKKRove.
The repukes are trying to throw more wrenches in the wheel. pathetic. pathetic. pathetic.

[Tommymac]

32. Levin: Bush said Rove not involved...

Now it has been proven he has...now what?

Calling Bush a liar in so many words....

[in_cog_ni_to]

33. Levin doing a GREAT job of explaining why.how KKKRove broke the law.

He's saying since the chimp now knows KKKRove leaked Plame's name, NOW WHAT?

"You leak the name of a covert CIA agent, you lose security clearance!" Levin

[Tommymac]

34. WE WIN!!! Coleman says 'Clinton"

:evilgrin:

[cynatnite]

35. Sessions reminds me a little of Forest Gump

no offense to Forest Gump, of course :smoke:

[in_cog_ni_to]

42. His nasal tone

DRIVES ME UP A DAMN WALL!

Oh, he's just SHOCKED by this amendment. :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

But he's not shocked about LYING US INTO AN ILLEGAL INVASION OF ANOTHER SOVEREIGN NATION!!!! That man is NUTS!

[Sapphire Blue]

53. More like a cross between Henry Gibson & Ernest T. Bass

[in_cog_ni_to]

36. Ah shit. The whiny ass Sessions is on the floor.

LISTEN TO HIM! OMG. I hate that man. :grr:

"KKKRove didn't break any law!"

Think again Jeffy boy! You fucking LOSER!

[jim3775]

38. "One of america's finest public servants"

These people truly do live in an alternate universe.

[jillan]

44. that is the funniest thing I've heard yet!

[Tommymac]

37. Sessions is Nervous...

could this have caught the rethugs by surprise?

They seem oddly nervous...their arguments are disjointed and full of partisan speculation...no fact

[Cats Against Frist]

39. He just called Rove

"one of America's finest public servants."

:puke:

[dogday]

41. He is uh uh uh uh

having a few problems....

[Proud_Lefty]

45. Sessions is an idiot

How long does a senate have to serve to realize what Rove did was a criminal act? What a dork!

[burythehatchet]

40. can someone remove the sharp stick from Jeff Sessions ass

:mad:

On Karl Rove - one of our finest public servants

[cynatnite]

43. Sessions: He didn't mean to do it

:eyes:

[Renew Deal]

46. The pukes don't want to vote on it.

They know if they vote against it, they are supporting treason.

[in_cog_ni_to]

50. YES INDEED!

:woohoo::woohoo: Good move on the Dems part! The repukes can't win this one and they KNOW it! :rofl:

[Tommymac]

47. Jay rockefeller - WVA - on now!

Yay Jay!!!!

Need to guard the identity of our spies.

[cynatnite]

48. Rockefeller is doing a good job n/t

[Tommymac]

51. Very well spoken.

Calm, serious, and responsible.

[jillan]

49. Go Rockefeller - frame it baby!

Talk in their language -
yeah, security, war on terror, severe consequences:yourock:

[dogday]

52. Rockefeller is making this about security

they are making it about Bush and Rove' reputation. Which is more important?

[ScamUSA.Com]

67. Roberts is stuttering along

You are now part of the Criminal Partisan Coverup, sir.

[Tommymac]

54. This should be on greatest page...please recommend!

Everyone needs to watch!

[myrna minx]

57. Done. n/t

[in_cog_ni_to]

55. "We have to make clear to those in the Federal work force

the importance of keeping this information secure"

"We need to get serioous about this problem and this is a good place to start." Rockefeller

[in_cog_ni_to]

58. Frist amendment..rewrites the freedom of speech amendment and should be

dismissed out of hand. Rockefeller.

[cyberpj]

56. Hi Guys! Some of us were over here at tommymacs 4:32 thread:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=4102263&mesg_id=4102263

:hi: but we're joining you now for fun fun fun....

[Tommymac]

61. I asked the mods to redirect you all here...

the food is better! ;)

[cyberpj]

75. So I see... Yum Yum. Love to dish!

[jim3775]

59. He is going after the Frist ammendment

Saying it makes a mockery of the seriousness of this situation and is unconstitutional.

[cynatnite]

60. Repukes sure do love to argue semantics to the ninth degree n/t

[in_cog_ni_to]

62. Pat Roberts..repuke...doesn't understand the amendment.

:eyes:

[MsTryska]

63. am i gonna have to ask.....

"what's the matter with kansas?"

pat Robers (R- kansas) speaking now....

saying senators don't have security clearance so therefore Rove didn't do anythign wrong? :shrug:

[in_cog_ni_to]

73. They are REALLY, REALLY grasping at straws here!

He just doesn't understand why the Senate Dems want this amendment and he can't believe they are calling for KKKRove to be fired.

Now he's going after Wilson! He's trying to say Wilson went on a media blitz...so, therefore he's not to be believed? :eyes:

Give it up Pat!

[jillan]

64. wonder if any repugs are going to cross party lines on this admendment?

Hopefully, but they would have to fear for their lives!

[cyberpj]

68. probably not - they can say they had no proof he did anything wrong.

safe.
for now.

[Idioteque]

69. My prediction is that neither amendment will pass

A few Repubs will vote against the Frist amendment and the Reid amendment will most likely be party line.

[cyberpj]

65. Sen Pat Roberts - R Kansas is up - they all know how to act indignant

don't they?

It's all just so incredible to them!

[Tommymac]

66. Roberts r- Kansas spewing the RW Talking points

all of them.

Quite a mouthful of marbles.

[cyberpj]

70. Oh no! He dissed The Daily Show! Booo.....

[MsTryska]

74. *lmao*.....

i heard hte shout out.


i love how wilson is this "bit player" now.


if he was so inconsequential why did they talk smack about his wife?

[Moosepoop]

79. He dissed TDS???

HE needs to be indicted! :mad:

[cyberpj]

91. Now you KNOW John will have it up there on the new big screen.

[Pirate Smile]

133. What did he say? on the Senate floor - LOL.

[cyberpj]

169. I think he referenced Wilson's appearance on The Daily Show

and then called it a fake news show - (as if that would hurt anyone since they call themselvs that anyway) -- But that must mean he watches it!

Here's some info on the 2003 wilson appearance:

http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:rP2Wf6l-VfIJ:www.onlisareinsradar.com/archives/001569.php+joe+wilson+%2Bthe+daily+show&hl=en

[Al-CIAda]

240. Like Bill Kristol's, Powell's, etc, etc's appearance... n/t?

[cyberpj]

242. Exactly. And just for a laugh...here's a quote from today's

Web Only Political posting for The Daily Show:

As Bush officials hedge their language about a criminal case with actual relevance to national security, somewhere in Harlem, a solitary man is working on his fifteenth pork rib and muttering, "A blowjob. They got me on a blowjob?"

[Proud_Lefty]

81. Fake News!

Suggested action for DU Activists - Demand Pat Roberts' resignation!

[Jersey Devil]

85. ROFL, "a fake news show"

This is too funny.

[Tommymac]

71. Roberts has a big nose....

anyone else notice that?

[in_cog_ni_to]

82. and getting bigger by the minute!

LYIN' BASTARD.

[Tommymac]

89. I was hoping someone

would say that!

:rofl:

[dogday]

72. "I presume they are innocent "said Roberts in one breath

while smearing Joe Wilson in the next... What a politician...

[Tommymac]

80. I'll agree he is a p word...

politician is not quite the one I'm thinking of....

[cynatnite]

76. it's only our national security

:sarcasm:

[in_cog_ni_to]

86. They don't care!

Win at all costs!

[bvar22]

77. GOP SOFT ON TREASON!!!!

Republicans SOFT on TREASON.

I'm gonna try to Freeway Blog this this weekend!

[existentialist]

203. Good Shot.

GREAT BUMPER STICKER MATERIAL!

[Jersey Devil]

78. Roberts: "a special prosecutor who leaks"???

What the hell is he talking about. Fitzgerald has everyone completely in the dark

[cynatnite]

83. unlike another special prosecutor who went after a cum stained dress n/t

[goodboy]

Sen. Roberts, "I'm not a shoot first, ask questions later guy..."

Really?


Like in Iraq?

[Lecky]

90. ROFL exactly

I wonder how he feels about torturing terrorist SUSPECTS.

[dogday]

84. Oh My god, she drives to work

and blows her cover

[goodboy]

87. Roberts> "She wasn't that far under cover" (nt)

[cyberpj]

88. Yeah, last night they kept saying she was driving to Langley so

so how undercover could she be.

[goodboy]

118. Norm Coleman is a piece of shit. He looks like the goblin from Spiderman.

[Tommymac]

92. This is GREAT TV!!!!!

Thanks CSPAN!

[cynatnite]

94. Dodd is telling it like it is n/t

[dogday]

95. I love it when they get hot and heavy

on the floor. Sounds almost like porn doesn't it?

[in_cog_ni_to]

100. BEST 'reality TV' on the air!

:toast:

[jillan]

93. I hope this isn't being seen around the world

So embarrasing to have US senators saying it is okay to disclose classified information -

[Tommymac]

97. Only the Rethugs are saying that...

I hope everyone is watching!

[in_cog_ni_to]

96. Dodd on the floor now.

He's perplexed by their response to this. "Do they say people who leak info should be allowed to keep their security clearance?" "What's the objection here? This amendment doesn't mention KKKROVE. So what's the problem?" :evilgrin: Good one Dodd

[Jersey Devil]

101. Dodd: "They covered it up for the past two years" and asks if

Republicans think those who out agents should continue to have access to secret information?

[Proud_Lefty]

98. We've got them on the run

Go Dodd. Make 'em squirm some more. This is great! :bounce:

[cyberpj]

99. Dodd is acting equally indignant saying this should be UNANIMOUSLY

approved.

Rove instigated it but is not named in it - this is for protection in all such incidents - if Rove is proved later, fine, but Rove is not directly the subject of this amendment.

[jillan]

102. Coleman - get a hair cut!

[cyberpj]

104. or at least a decent tie.

[MsTryska]

Did I hear that right?

[OrlandoGator]

110. "This is nothing but gotcha politics."

[Tommymac]

106. Coleman Perm back up....

They WHY are all the repubs getting so hot under the collar, about this, and so SHRILL? Hahahaha.

Why did a few of them go live on CNN this afternoon in an attempt to trivialize the investigation?

Methinks they all do protest too much!!

[DistressedAmerican]

111. Asshole Tag Team Against Accountabilty

[cyberpj]

112. Sessions again - joining Coleman in claiming poor drafting of amendment

because someone could expose someone and not know they were an agent.

[dogday]

113. An Innocent mistake that gets people killed

is not an innocent mistake... if you are that stupid you need to lose your clearance...

[Tommymac]

114. Sessions speaking through marbles again...

Tag teaming with Coleman ---ohhhh, Ima scared!

[Proud_Lefty]

115. Innocent Mistake

Oh, Rove is so innocent and unknowing! Holy shit!

[cynatnite]

116. If you reveal a CIA agent without knowing??

How does one reveal a CIA agent as being one if one doesn't know they are a CIA agent? :shrug:

[redqueen]

226. Bingo.

They're so used to lying they don't even try to do it well anymore.

:eyes:

[jillan]

117. A perfectly innocent mistake?????

they have got to come up with something better than that!

[LSK]

ok asshole pukes, when a nuke goes off, it doesnt care what party you are

ITS NOT ABOUT POLITICS. ITS ABOUT THREATENING OUR NATIONAL SECURITY, ITS ABOUT BREWSTER JENNINGS OPERATIONS GETTING BLOWN!!!!

YOU ASSHOLES ARE PUTTING POLITICS AHEAD OF SECURITY!!!!!!!!!

[in_cog_ni_to]

119. Harry Reid is back!

"How in the world can anyone vote against this?"

"The only thing I can think of is that this is a cover up." :woohoo:

[Tommymac]

120. Reid - Vote against is attempt to cover up

an attempt to conceal.

[cyberpj]

121. Dianne Feinstein - D California now

[Tommymac]

125. Feinstein....Frist amendment

an attempt to attack a fellow senator. Never been done in the senate.

[Jersey Devil]

126. Harry Reid wrapping it up now

"How in the world can anyone in this body vote against this?" The only think I can conclude is an attempt to cover up, abuse of power (paraphrased)

[in_cog_ni_to]

127. SHE HAS DURBIN'S FBI REPORT!!!

It WAS NOT CLASSIFIED!!! Diane is smokin' today!!! :smoke:

[jillan]

131. Help me here

I missed that - what was that about?

[in_cog_ni_to]

139. Durbin's floor speech where he quoted FBI accts of torture at GITMO.

http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getpage.cgi?dbname=2005_record&page=S6594&position=all

The repukes are trying to say he leaked sensitive, classified info. He did not. It's ANOTHER BLATANT LIE. The portions he read had been declassified. :) The link above is Durbin's speech if you want to read it.

[jillan]

147. thx! n/t

[dogday]

128. Are they still trying to beat Durbin's dead horse? n/t

[in_cog_ni_to]

132. THAT is what the Frist amendment is all about.

[Tommymac]

135. Who would vote against this?

Boxer: 'We'll find out"

:yourock:

Edit: Publishing an enemies list is wrong.

Frist amendment would make all Senator's lose their clearance.

[Tommymac]

141. Boxer: You are either on the side of

the brave men and women working undercover or you are on the side of politics.

[jillan]

152. I love it when we use their language against them n/t

[LSK]

142. mistakes get people killed asshole

Why is this Okay????

[goodboy]

146. Roberts? "put a stake in the careers of intel. agents?" Isn't that what

ROVE FUCKING DID?!?!?!

[in_cog_ni_to]

153. Funny how they don't see it that way, eh?

:eyes: repukes are unbelievable in their hypocrisy.

[goodboy]

166. I know...Oh McConnell (KY) says it hurts the TROOPS to hold Rove

accountable.

[in_cog_ni_to]

148. Roberts again.

"In your zeal to hang KKKRove you are putting a stake in others with security clearance."

Schumer is up. He thanks Roberts for pointing bad wording in the amendment. ;)

[Tommymac]

149. Schumer up.

frist amendment a smokescreen - you stick it to us we'll stick it to you

[tishaLA]

150. Roberts is gonna have a stroke

[Bluebear]

162. .

[Tommymac]

158. Schumer is on target.

President should have done this without the need for a Senatorial resolution.

[spindoctor]

159. Thanks guys. I can't watch, but following this thread is just as good.

[Dickie Flatt]

174. Much better than dull policy talks delivered to an empty chamber, isn't it

[Cocoa]

this should lead off all the network newscasts

but will it? :shrug:

[cynatnite]

161. McConnell called it the kkkarl rove amendment

[Tommymac]

163. Mcconnel - R Whip Kentucky

Thinks this is a waste of time.

Natioanal security a waste?

Now he is bringing up Iraq and Terrorism. Gez...these guys are so predicatable.

[Catherine Vincent]

168. Listen to this ass making vile threats.

[in_cog_ni_to]

164. UGH! McConnell on the floor.

He calls this the "Karl Rove amendment." he's talking about Durbin's speech. This is total bullshit. Durbin did not release ANY unclassified inf. KKKRove DID!

[dogday]

165. Rovian tactic of putting the crap back on them

oh the Frist amendment is meant to bully the Senators....

[Bluebear]

167. McConnell: 'Lesh call it Krl Rove amindmint, that's wut it is"

"It's a tahm of war, this is putting our troops at risssshk"

[jillan]

This is about our security - stupid lady!

[dogday]

173. Did Lautenberg say the T word?

[dogday]

176. And Kerrys 3 Purple Hearts

[Cocoa]

178. Not fair

Lautenberg quoting McClellan in 2003. With a poster, no less! :-)

[Tommymac]

177. Lautenberg Up. Teaching school!

He has a visual presentation! Go Frank!!!!!

[Allenberg]

181. That was awesome.

You can't make a bigger point than Frank Lautenberg just made.

[LSK]

187. Lautenberg says lets vote, let everyone see who votes for what

Exactly and nail them motherfvckers to the wall in 2006!!!!

[tishaLA]

190. Susan Collins's voice drives me batty

I'm sorry I'm so shallow but I am. I know she's a more reasonable republicon, but Jeebus.

And she's telling us we should be focusing on national security? This is ABOUT national security.

[tishaLA]

[dogday]

217. Long Overdue

[Bouncy Ball]

222. Never. Let. Up.

The Democrats, should they find their shoe on the repuke's collective neck, should NOT let up, should NOT show mercy, because today's repukes will DESTROY this country little by little.

[dogday]

227. Amen to that

230. Norm is reading the WSJ editorial from yesterday

He just read a fvcking lie. Wilson NEVER SAID CHENEY SENT HIM. NEVER! NEVER! NEVER! NEVER! NEVER! NEVER! NEVER! NEVER! NEVER! NEVER! NEVER! NEVER! NEVER! NEVER!

[sunnystarr]

234. These out and out lies really make me sick!!

I can't believe news organizations can get away with it. When are the people going to rise against being lied to? It's not like the truth isn't readily available.

It's bad enough that the Repukes lie but it's so much worse when leading newspapers do it. The NY Post also had an article full of the same GOP talking point lies.

It's a great cycle for them ... GOP talking points packed with lies and quoted by every Repuke and rw program ... then quoted and picked up by the newspapers. Then the Repukes put the paper in the record on the House and Senate floor.

It's *uckin unbelievable!!!

[sunnystarr]

236. Gag Amendment fails ... Now Reid's and that will fail too ... (nt)

[sellitman]

238. Sounds like they want to go home...

can the roll vote go any faster?
