Can somebody fill me in on what just happened?

[NJSecularist]

What's going on today? What is on the table? What was the House debating?

And why did the Repubes walk out?

[Hepburn]

1. The Pukes did not get their way on Wiretap bill...

...so they walked out to a pre-planned press conference and are spewing that the Dems are putting all of us at risk.

Same ol', same ol'.

2. It's FISA... the repugs threw a hissy fit and walked out of the House.

Note.. there is coverage of a news conference staged by the repugs on the steps... Only CSpan is covering what's going on inside!!

3. Thanks...I just caught a bit of Pelosi...but that was about it. n/t

7. It's also the contempt of Congress vote n/t

5. I have something here to make the R.'s feel better:

We won. You lost. Get over it.

6. actually, they were debating a resolution about holding Miers and Bolton in comtempt

for not showing up to testify in congress in regards to the politicization of the Department of Justice. The pukes... were bitching about having time for this debate and not having time to debate FISA as it has been postponed three weeks. They are accusing the Dems of political grandstanding.. while in fact demonstrating to the rest of us how it is actually done.
