Am I the only one watching the House debate the Patriot Act ?

Edited on Wed Dec-14-05 11:44 AM by Viva_La_Revolution

Gingrey is sooooo slimey. I keep expecting him to offer me a great deal on a slightly used ford owned by a little old lady who only drove it to the grocery store. And only on wednesdays.

1. I'm tuned in

Of course, I have to turn the volume down when the Republicans talk. They never seem to get near reality when they open their mouths.

3. Osborne (R) saying Patriot Act is part of the war against METH

I've heard a few repugs trying to use this argument this morning. I guess they got nothing else. :shrug:

19. I'm watching with you.

Although, nonSensenbrenner yeilded himself as much time as he will consume, so I turned it to the senate. I just can't stand nonSensenbrenner.
