House Debates and Votes on Draft LIVE THREAD - BILL DEFEATED

C-SPAN | 10/05/2004 | C-SPAN

[You Dirty Rats]

Debate is ongoing ...

[Right Cal Gal]

(Out of breath) Got here late to the thread, ya'll. Is the Demo red herring draft bill up for vote in Committee or the entire House?

[TexasCajun]

I tuned in late? This is just GREAT!

About time the Republican leadership fought back!

Everyone MUST watch the rebroadcast!

WE KICKED ASS TODAY & TOOK NAMES!

Expect Cheney to discuss later.

Got a list (with party affiliation) of those YEA votes for reinstating the DRAFT? It would make a nice flier to place where the "Bush Administration seeks the reinstate the draft" memos have been left at doorways.

[TeleStraightShooter]

it's a motion to suspend the rules and pass the bill

So it would bypass the Committee.

Even the cowardly (D)Rats are voting against it

[TexasCajun]

Is this not just too funny!!

I'm laughing my ass off!

[MEG33]

Entire house..a Republican brought it to the floor because of the lying dem rumor campaign...The dems cried foul..but the vote is being taken...I doubt all the sponsors will vote yea.

[Right Cal Gal]

Thank you, my friend.
Of course, they're voting against it - they just wanted to scare people with it. It's always so much fun to watch them stuff their credibility in a Cuisinart and hit the "high" button.
Hopefully, this puts the bill on a raft headed for Gilligan's Island for the time being.

One of our guys, Gulf War I Vet even spanked Dan Rather and DNCBS for running the story about Bush and the draft!

This is a golden moment for our guys, I hope they like the feeling and keep hammering the Rats on other issues!

[Right Cal Gal]

Gotta love them Texas Cajuns - I was married to the Louisiana variety m'sef...

I have to ask - does anyone know who voted FOR this monstrosity? I'm also loving that the right is finally standing up and saying - f**k this s**t - we're not rolling over for the sake of harmony any more.
