1. are they still in session at this hour?
It's like 5:30 in the morning. Is somebody filibustering?

I still have mixed feelings about the war. I am not sure what Congress can do as long as the Chimperor is in the White House. Personally I feel that this measure just gives Republicans more rope and expect (hope) the voters will leave them twisting slowly in the wind in 2008.

3. Then you haven't been talking to regular, non-Democrat, people.

It is the DEMOCRATS who are going to pay for this. People expect this crap from Bush, and they elected Democrats to stand up to him. Instead, the Democrats are conforming to EVERY FUCKING STEREOTYPE that I've argued against for years.

My father, a Republican who voted for Bush twice, voted straight Democrat this last election. Now he's going right back.

The Democrats are not doing what they were elected to do. They got a little resistance, and they caved.

It is the Democrats who will be twisting slowly in the wind in '08 thanks to this vote.

2. Since I changed my attitude about this...
...It now makes me chuckle to see it get used.

I think it was someone (name slips the mind) who expressed envy that they had not said it.

However, you're probably right about calling in. I do it all the time: Rep. Dave Camp is a shameless BushBot, Carl Levin is becoming Senile and I'm not sure WHAT is going on with Stabenow.
