It happened yesterday. MCCain, Graham, and Warner refused to go along with the President, and instead pushed THEIR version of the bill out of the committee, helped (of course) by the democrats. Colin Powell wrote a snarky letter supporting McCain, which of course McCain released to the press.

I am still steamed about this. Lindsey Graham was on a lot of talk shows yesterday and is simply being obtuse. He is not going to back down because he sees himself as being "principled." My personal opinion is that he is following his idol McCain's lead.

I am so mad at these people I could spit.

Well, I'm assuming that you're up for a roadtrip to Iowa if McCain's people try to set up a meeting in my community for local activists.

I'd like to charge admission to that meeting. It would be quite a show to see you man handling McLaim.

Me too, Jane, Bennett just had a caller from S.C. , and he was none too pleased with his Senator, either.

Plus I'm saddened by Fallaci's death, and concerned over the Pope and the reaction to his speech in Germany this week. He goes forth bravely, and the demons have been stirred...

Thanks for the start.

Dog,hope today is a better one...

Thanks for the summary. I get so tired of this - backstabbing,under handedness, running their own agenda, regardless of the damage it does in the long run .

McCain and Graham? Hmmpp usual suspects, more than a RINO more like dems in Republic clothing.

(No fan of Mccain, Graham or Specter!)

Hopefully neither will ever be President!
