'Sense of Senate" Right NOW cspan2 Senate Fl--about the Betraeus AD whow

[rodeodance]

[rodeodance]

1. Repug Corny TX is putting forth the amendment

[rodeodance]

3. Senate had previously said the amendment was not germaine.

[cali]

6. Smack him down good. n/t

[katty]

2. As usual, WASTING TAX PAYERS $$ w/this crap

[rodeodance]

4. I am not sure how many votes they need?

[rodeodance]

5. HYPOCRITS---where were they with the Swift boats ads against a VET?

[lpbk2713]

9. And when Mean Jean took the floor and called Murtha a coward.

Piss on her.

[TwilightGardener]

7. This is sickening. How dare ANYONE question the general?

[rodeodance]

11. damm!

[rodeodance]

8. god, they wachos just voted down rest time for the troops and they have the gall

to waste time with this!

[trashcanistanista]

10. Somebody needs to get into anger mode

in the Senate to smack this asshole down. I hope it's Webb.

[TwilightGardener]

12. Here's the question--how will the Dems vote on this? I'll bet it passes

unanimously.

[Beelzebud]

14. At this point, it wouldn't surprise me at all.

[trashcanistanista]

16. I hope not, I don't think they

will vote yes on this. We already know that "polls" indicate most of the country believes Betrayus lied! So the Dems are covered, and Cornryn needs to be portrayed as the idiot he is. This crap does nothing to help the troops. This is simply crazytalk.

[C_U_L8R]

13. Republicans only believe in free speech

when it flatters themselves.

Lame.

[TwilightGardener]

15. Cornyn's going beyond defending the General's honor--he's

trying to bolster what the general said (it's all good news!).

[VP505]

17. He had

a good name until he willingly became a liar for Bu$h.

[TwilightGardener]

18. If they condemn MoveOn, then they need to also condemn Limbaugh--

for calling my Senator "Senator Betrayus", repeatedly.

[VP505]

22. Durban smacking them down

for the Swift Boat liars crap.

[trashcanistanista]

19. Ha!

Durbin mentioning the swifties!!! Smackdown!

[TwilightGardener]

20. This is bullshit. Here comes Durbin--talking about Swiftboaters--go Durbin!

[Beaverhausen]

21. OH- here we go!

Go Durbin!

[TwilightGardener]

23. Cornyn--won't condemn Swiftboaters. Says that was political.

[trashcanistanista]

24. Cornryn - apples and oranges because

Kerry was running for prez. It's only OK to swiftboat when you're running for prez!

Durbin showing a little anger now!

[VP505]

25. Swift Boat Liars

OK because it was a political campaign, Petreaus Ad not OK, fucking hypocrites.

[trashcanistanista]

27. Durbin is good. I hope Kerry

speaks up!

[trashcanistanista]

31. Boxer in the ring now.

Backing Kerry mentioning Cleland! Showing anger!

[rodeodance]

26. yo ho -Durbin saying others should be included like Swift boaters

[rodeodance]

30. goog call

[rodeodance]

k

[rodeodance]

37. HEY folks--the DEMS are calling out the REPUGS! who ho

[TwilightGardener]

28. Durbin--says SBVT attacked a veteran--no difference if he ran for Prez or not.

Says Cornyn should amend his amendment out of consistency.

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

29. K&R Thanks for the updates on the floor action All.

I just can't watch today, It sounds worse than the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie, Or maybe Motel Hell.

[Beaverhausen]

32. Boxer- Go get em!!!

[TwilightGardener]

33. Boxer sticking up for Cleland.

[VP505]

34. Very cool

Durbin will amend his amendment if he doesn't, LOL. Boxer giving him hell also, GO Ms Boxer.

[OzarkDem]

35. Boxer on now

Pointing out attacks on Kerry and Max Cleland. Good stuff.

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

41. I had forgotten Cleland was attacked in those ads also.

Love that Boxer. Great style too.

[Beaverhausen]

36. She's my senator!

:loveya:

[rodeodance]

38. BOXER-YOU ARE GRAND

[rodeodance]

40. SMACK down Time puggies

[TwilightGardener]

39. Durbin--also sticking up for Cleland.

[TwilightGardener]

42. Cornyn--still saying that politicians dont' count. He's such an ass.

[OzarkDem]

43. "Its just politics"

bullshit. He says nothing about the retired Generals who were attacked for their opposition to Bush's failed war.

[rodeodance]

44. HEY coryn pinhead--A soldier is a soldier- it is NOT apples and oranges!!

[TwilightGardener]

45. I have had it with this day. This was a shitty day. I feel like crap.

[rodeodance]

47. Hey, wd----thanks for sticking in. it was my day off. I should have spent it more productively as

I am wiped out now also

[trashcanistanista]

48. Me too,

but thanks all for the company. At least I didn't suffer alone and the dems are starting to show a little spine which is somewhat good.

[TwilightGardener]

49. Thank you for all the threads! I too blew most of my day off! What

a disappointment.

[Inuca]

51. But I want to thank you and the others

that kept the live blog of what was happening on the Senate floor alive. Trule appreciate, since I was not able to follow for most of the day, and I would have wanted to. Managed to get back to civilized CSPAN only in time to see the Webb amendment go down :mad: :mad: :mad:

[Inuca]

50. Have a good rest and unfortunately

get ready for more shit in the days to come :-(

[tridim]

53. Yep, it's going to get much worse every day. Brace yourselves.

It seems like the Repigs decided today to support * 100% and obstruct everything from here on out. The only thing left short of full on revolution is impeachment.

[rodeodance]

46. They went into Morning Business . I have no idea what the hell is going on!

[malaise]

52. Wes Clark is discussing the Webb amendment on Tweety

He is destroying a moron.
Add.
