Oh for goodness sake - now we have to listen to their pork cut repercussions?

Again - more campaigning speeches. STFU!

So the Senate vote is tomorrow, but Wolf Blitzer and most folks I've heard seem to think that the Senate will be easy. 70+ votes. So the real story is still the House tonight.

Jebus... this is quite old. I wonder what we are missing?

This one dude said something important once. Everyone forgot until some douche decided to write a book about the dude. The dudes words became important again, but nobody gives a **** about old dudes. So it really doesn't matter.

REALLY!

At least they have shut off the sound when no one is actually speaking so they DON'T LOOK AS FLIP AS THEY ARE ABOUT THIS, but the "musak" on C-Span, is just bizarre. Have they done this before? This watching people mill around to Chamber Music?

Oh yeah, C-SPAN used to do a lot more music and a lot less announcing and calls and replays. It's much better now.

One thing about the Moonbats, they've got balls.
Quote:
The protesters, who were sitting in one of the visitors’ galleries overlooking the Republican side of the chamber, unfurled a large black banner and began chanting against the debt-limit compromise.

They chanted several slogans, including: “Boehner, get off it; it’s time to tax corporate profits.” It appeared that after one officer tried to yank the banner from the group, a protester either took a tumble or dove over the row of seats in front.

“We have an injury!” someone said.
Poetic too, lol.

Good, let's hope they convince enough liberal, tax and spend types to vote against this thing so it fails.

Oh God - now Harkin is playing the race card......

sighs....

I can't have fun with this anymore, and I think I'm black from what he is saying.

Edit: Meaning basically, from the differences he described between the fiscal health of white Americans vs. black (or Hispanic Americans) my fiscal health does not reflect that I am pasty white.....
