Anyone watching C-SPAN2?

Kerry's been on screen for awhile now. They're voting on the Dorgan Amendment and he, Boxer, Reed and Durbin have been in a discussion for quite awhile. I wonder what they're talking about...

3. It appeared to be a pretty serious discussion

Kerry and Boxer talked for a few minutes and then he left.

Maybe he was trying to convince them to let him speak today ...

4. Wasn't it Reid?

I was watching for a while, then was called away.

5. You're right.

That's who I meant by "Reed". I just didn't spell it correctly.

10. Thanks - I had seen Kerry with Reid right after he voted

but then left - and because the names were similar - I figured it was worth asking. It is interesting that they were speaking.

7. I bet they are arranging a speaking schedule.

The Feingold/Kerry e-mail said the amendment would be introduced in 24-48 hours. I can't wait to hear both men make their floor speeches. This could be one for the ages.

The Rethugs can't wait to debate Sen. Kerry. Stupid Rethugs.

8. Harkin's doing a pretty good job right now,

talking about waste, fraud, and abuse in Iraq and Afghanistan. Creepy stuff. It's hard to imagine how the rethugs will defend against this.

9. They just ignore it and pretend it doesn't happen

These people who are profiting from the IRaq War contribute to Republicans. The last thing they are going to allow is an audit, no matter how much one is needed. Sigh! Party before country, once again.
