I miss the Senate. I miss real news.
I miss the Fisheries and Small Business hearings. I want to see a really good hearing in SFRC.

I miss something of substance to talk about. I miss the Senate. Come back soon people!

1. What's Kerry going to do about Iraq in the Senate? What are other
Dems going to do about Iraq in the Senate? I can tell you, talking to my folks who are here, that people want our troops out of there. And if Bush will not honor the will of the American people, then Congress needs to. I don't know what or how they can do it, but if Bush goes ahead with that troop surge against the WILL of the American people, well then, Congress needs to step in.

Is Kerry back in the States now? I wonder when he and Dodd will brief the WH. The WH probably will do nothing in regards to diplomacy.

I'm just thinking out loud here, but the substance you're talking about is just so big, the burden so large, what will they do?

2. I miss something of substance, too. This is a long stretch, but
fireworks of all types are en route. Between the new 110th Congress and the Libby trial, it's bound to get interesting.
And you're great, Tay; you miss the Fisheries and SB hearings?! I cannot say that I do, but you're devotion personified!
Two questions: where have you seen those hearings, and I don't have a clue what SFRC means.
:hi:

3. We have six weeks of Biden SFRC hearing to look forward to.
Two weeks of serious business and four weeks of Biden talking about himself.
