Debate on the Floor of the House is pretty Heated

[me b zola]

Defazio just got done with a rant, finishing by saying that a Congressional investigation will just be a cover-up.

Miller is up now, calling a Congressional investigation phony.



Both have been yelling :popcorn:

[goclark]

1. Pelosi is up now but she is much to calm

She needs to go crazy on these fools.

She is saying the right words but not on fire.

[me b zola]

3. Agreed.

Did you see the CBC last night? They were on fire :)

[goclark]

4. I missed them, does anyone have a link to the CBC last night? nt

[me b zola]

5. I don't, but I can look for one

I came in on the speeches a little late. The acting Speaker was trying to prevent Corrine Brown from discussing how Cheney is making money off of the no-bid contracts in NO. The CBC won that battle. :)

[goclark]

11. Thanks ,e b zola , I really love the CBC

[me b zola]

21. Urg. I'm not having any luck finding a link.

I'll keep looking :)

6. She's pissed

She almost broke down for a moment there.

[me b zola]

2. Pelosi

"We endanger the American people when we reject the truth."

Begging for there to not be a whitewash.



edited to say that although "we in danger, endanger is spelled differently :D

[garybeck]

7. more info please?

what debate? which investigation? is it going on now? are you talking about the Iraq lies debate from yesterday? or something else going on today? I can't keep up. more info please.

[me b zola]

8. They are debating a Congressional investigation of New Orleans

vs. an independent investigation.

Every Dem that I have heard is saying that a Congressional investigation will be a sham and the American people deserve better.

Right now it's Pelosi. She is speaking calmly, where as the others were ranting and visably pissed off.

[garybeck]

9. ah thanks. I agree it would be a sham. independent investigation

would be better

[me b zola]

10. Louise Slaughter is up for closing remarks

Congresswoman Slaughter, says American people want an independant investigation, and notes that that includes repubs too.


Okay. repub closing remarks. Blah, blah, lie, lie. :puke:
Talking about terra, terra, terra :puke:


Soon it will be the vote and it's a done deal.

[Rose Siding]

14. She's right- In recent polls, that's right up there with

re-building being more important than tax cuts. Both are kryptonite for repubs.

[ClassWarrior]

12. Go Dems!

Keep us posted on what's happening.

NGU.

[charlie]

13. Dems are done

Dreier is blathering, taking umbrage at the suggestion that anyone in the House wouldn't be interested in the truth.

[me b zola]

16. Yeah, how indignant they become when someone speaks the truth

"who *us*, lying, cheating, thieving bastards?"

[LSK]

15. Repuke is bring up Trent Lotts house

WTF, ITS TOTALLY IRRELEVANT. DID THE FVCKING HOUSE NEED RESCUE AFTER 3 DAYS????

GOD THESE DUMBFVCKS ARE SO CLUELESS!!!!!!!

[Greeby]

18. since he mentioned it

[me b zola]

17. Voting now

On a "bipartisan" Congressional hearing.

[LSK]

19. let me guess

REJECTED!

[me b zola]

20. No. Pubs got their way.

But there will be nothing "bipartisan" about the Congressional hearings. That was what the Dems were arguing, that the Dems don't have the same subpoena power, votes, or weight, as do the repubs.


Pukes won the vote. Slaughter has requested a recorded vote---to tie that vote to all of the pukes who refuse to do what the American people have overwhelmingly said they wanted---an independent investigation.

[bluedog]

22. Is it possible for the ,,,,,,,,,,,,People

to have .say an outside lawyer....investigate and sue the government for their lack of inaction?..........or to have a group like the 9-11 girls to start getting on media shows and start demanding an independent investigation........would congress have to tun this decision around...
