Ye Haw, Good News From TrueMajority.org

[VP505]

Senators Dodd and Feingold will step up as progressive leaders and filibuster this legislation. Here's part of the joint statement they just released:
"We will oppose efforts to end debate on this bill as long as it provides retroactive immunity for the telecommunications companies".

1. Yow!

I guess I gotta take back everything I thought about Russ yesterday, when it seemed he was caving...!

[Bluzmann57]

2. Sure wish Dodd would have gotten more support

during his Presidential run. But on the other hand, we really need him in the Senate.

10. I agree 100%.

Dodd, Feingold and Biden are much more valuable in the Senate.

11. So the post in LBN is not true?

About Feingold abandoning efforts to filibuster?

[Duke Newcombe]

12. "...oppose efforts to dend debate" doesn't exactly sound like "we'll fillibuster"

They may vote against ending debate, but unless 58 more senator stand up, this does nothing.

13. Keeping the debate going is a filibuster,

they don't want to invoke cloture which would end debate and force a vote on the bill.

[Duke Newcombe]

14. Right....got it twisted around.

We hope 60 don't vote for cloture.
