Anyone watching CSPAN????
Edited on Tue Mar-11-08 09:07 PM by LSK
The Dems are trying to pass a bill creating a 6 person Independent House Ethics Committee.

The repukes are really pissed and trying to block it. They just spent 10 minutes on lame parlimentary inquiries and then tried to adjourn the house.

4. I've Been Watching All Day
Kudos to the Democrats for showing some spine...not much, but one that appears to be growing.

It was a real thrill seeing Bill Foster sworn in earlier. I honestly had goose bumps.

The FISA fun on Thursday should be real fireworks.

Yep...Boner's trying to delay and obstruct where he cant shut things down. Look for another "motion to recommit" after the vote. It's getting boring...

:hi:

7. Yes, but now it seems more Democrats are voting "Present" than earlier,
and could lose this vote. Do you see it that way?
