at the bottom. The time frame would be when the Jeoffords scandal was taking place. I remember signing many petitions and at least 15 calls to senators to stop this bill in its tracks. My recollection is that we were successful and that it had been stopped temporarily. Wasn't this the spending bill that Reid tried to put on the floor ahead of another one without the forgiveness clause even though that one had the support of the American people and Reid in a moment of profound embarrassment backed down having been caught with his hand in the pug Cookie jar or did that just concern the telecoms forgiveness for it too was buried in the spending bill. We need to know the bill particulars. I am long of tooth and my memory is now fuzzy on this so I will research it.
