woo... fucking... hoo...

What a week.

:puke:

[bdamomma]

1. oh shit.

[madinmaryland]

2. Dodd voted no?

:wtf:

[Mass]

5. Political grandstanding... Feingold voted YES.

[sandnsea]

7. I don't understand

:shrug:

[Mass]

10. Dodd had said he would only vote for a bill that was cutting funds like Feingold-Reid.

He had basically pledged not to vote for Levin-Reed as too soft before knowing what would be in the bill, sent emails, ...

13. Agreed--Dodd can go to hell. Levin Reed was a good amendment.

[ralphmich3]

16. Dodd does a 180 Degree turn....

Dodd voted for this bill in July..

[againes654]

3. Yep

Kind of makes me want to crawl into a hole and hide somewhere.:hide:

[Mass]

4. Why did Durbin and Boxer not vote?

[WillyT]

6. And Sanders Too !!!

:wtf:

[sandnsea]

8. Weirdest vote ever

I do not understand what in the hell is going on.

[liberal N proud]

9. They didn't vote

Not Voting - 6

Bennett (R-UT)
Boxer (D-CA)
Domenici (R-NM)
Durbin (D-IL)
Lott (R-MS)
Sanders (I-VT)

[Mass]

11. Do you know why?

[WillyT]

12. And Notice The Non-Voting Split... 3 rePukes, 2 Dems, And A Dem Voting Independent...

It's shit like this that leads one to conclude that political games are being played, and secret deals being made.

Bet then I'm just paranoid that way.

:shrug:

[sandnsea]

14. That's what I thought too

I'm so tired of these close votes when they don't launch the kinds of campaign they did with social security. The people want this war to end and if they were given an opportunity to really understand these bills, they could pressure the appropriate senators and get them passed. But we aren't putting out the effort to get that done.

17. Dem. Sens. A.W.O.L - call 202-224-3121

Boxer
Durbin

and Sanders who calls himself an independent

[ralphmich3]

18. Amendment designed to fail....

and what a great job they did - A TIE VOTE

[WillyT]

15. Kick !!!

:kick:

:shrug:
