[LSK]

1. Pelosi sounds upset or tired.

No doubt she's been under tremendous pressure. Her staff has been under a lot of pressure today as well; you could hear it in their voices.

[Coexist]

2. her voice has been well used these past 24 hours

sounds like she's been shouting for hours.

[NightWatcher]

3. she's right about one thing

this bill is so vague that no matter where someone votes on it, they can say that they meant it to be a good thing. Even though it's toothless, those who vote for it will say "the benchmarks sent a signal to Iraq". It's a walking, talking flip flop on steroids.

4. What's she saying?

[Coexist]

5. just a lot of blah, blah - nothing noteworthy, really.

[Clovis Sangrail]

6. she's explaining how this compromise isn't that bad

interspersed with pep talks

[LSK]

7. shes sad at the opportunity missed

She says they didnt put accountability in the bill. Its a babystep. Its not the end of the debate thou.

Now shes attacking Bush in Iraq and urging Congress to listen to the American people to end the war.

8. She seems to be a tad pissed off. Is she voting against it? She didn't say how she would vote!

Did she? Did I miss it?

[LSK]

9. she didnt say, but wasnt it speculated that she would vote against it?

[in_cog_ni_to]

12. Yes. That's what I heard yesterday, but why wouldn't she put that ON THE RECORD?

:shrug:

[LSK]

14. she will in a few minutes with the vote, so what difference does it make?

[in_cog_ni_to]

18. I thought the vote was going to be a secret vote...so we wouldn't know how they voted?

I must be missing something here. I read a post earlier that said we wouldn't know who voted how.

[LSK]

19. that post was a mess

It talked about House rules then tried to blame Senators. Well sorry, but the Senate and House have different rules. That post lost credibility with me.

[LSK]

10. And they are now voting

[Clovis Sangrail]

11. rofl... right now there's more republicans voting against it than dems

n/t

[Cameron27]

13. Looks like the majority of both parties

aren't voting at all.

[Cameron27]

15. They're voting on the immigration bill lol.

[LSK]

16. says "Concur in Senate Amendment with House Amendment No 1"

:shrug:

[Cameron27]

17. I know, I'm totally confused.

That's what I thought C-SPAN announced and just now CNN said the supplemental had passed. I must have heard it wrong.
