... our representatives are finally getting it. You can tell by their actions. We MUST continue to be persistent in letters/email to news organizations and elected leaders to explain the issues clearly when they are wrong and in showing appreciation when they come through. This will be a long, difficult fight. If they lead, we must support them. Remember John Kerry's words: "Now is a time to stand firm." Never forget.:-)

6. Check Raw Story headlines: |
|
www.rawstory.com
Democrats postpone both Gonzales and Rice votes Despite enough GOP votes in the Senate, some Democrats want debate on the floor.... Sens. Boxer and Byrd named as pushing for debate... Kennedy undecided... Reid's office: Not a filibuster, won't give names...
BE THE BUSH OPPOSITION; 24/7

13. OK What am I missing? do they have to have a unanimous vote? |

Edited on Wed Jan-19-05 09:46 PM by bush_is_wacko
How can Dems force this if she has for all intents and purposes already been confirmed? I didn't see the whole hearing today, realy just the end result and the vote today. What the heck did I miss?
Sorry, on edit, that was answered in the story. I am tired tonight! PUBLICITY! The Dems are DEMANDING exposure! Bout' damn time!
