2. Guess it's just us two, LSK. As we discussed last night; not many
CSPAN takers.

And have I mentioned my disdain for McCain lately?

6. Warner claiming this is an historic vote, piling on. History will judge
who the treasonous bastids are, and I'll just bet the 'majority' will indeed rule this time.

9. the arrogance of these men
as they use our soldiers to prop up the Maliki regime. They think the loss of life has been worth it. They expect more and don't care. preserving the puppet authority in Iraq is more important to them than our American soldiers' lives.

17. Is it preserving the puppet authority or lining their pockets? I've
said it before; I'd love to know how many Halliburton stocks some of these Senators have.

15. Hi, Sydnie!
Long time no see, my friend! :hug:

Did you catch any of this yesterday afternoon? Kerry was passionate, on fire, but I'm afraid to no avail. At least their resolution is out there, FWIW.

22. No matter HOW media spins it, the American people are FOR this withdrawal
and if they weren't the mediawhores wouldn't be spinning as HARD for the GOPs as they are.

27. I caught a brief moment of Whora O'Donnell this morning
reporting on yesterdays debate. She was glowingly giddy while reporting that the "democrat amendments were expected to fail"... when she said fail she actually flushed and giggled! I couldn't stand one more minute so I turned her off.

Primal screams have become a way of life for me lately.

35. GOPs DO realize it, and that's why they need their mediawhores to run
offense for them against the Dems.

28. and you know
if they vote this down, we will have our answer how these jerks want more death and destruction, and maybe it will be the end of the republicans if they choose their party, or George over our troops in harms way.

16. Reid says troops deserve an honest debate
on the war. Congress need to change for a new direction.
Criticism in time of war is essential.

32. Vote coming up on Kerry's amendment
I have to leave now, so I will check back to see how the votes go and who voted how. I know someone will be kind enough to post the list for those of us that can't be here to see it live.

Thanks Sis, for the thread!

43. Two resolutions, the lesser of the two being Levin's repug-lite one.
They're currently voting on Kerry-Feingold, thus all those no's. But I doubt either will pass.

41. They're probably going to vote for the Levin resolution
(repug lite), not Kerry/Feingold, which sets a finite date for withdrawal.

39. what is wrong with these guys?????
is it because they have a specific date for withdrawal, in the Kerry Feingold amendment and the Levin/Reed doesn't.
