PROGRAM -- (Senate - February 01, 2005)
Mr. BROWNBACK. Mr. President, tomorrow the Senate will resume consideration of the nomination of Alberto Gonzales to be Attorney General. A number of colleagues spoke on this nomination today, and we expect a full day of debate tomorrow as well. Under the agreement, we will alternate debate in 1-hour blocks throughout the day. Again, I encourage those Members who wish to speak on the Gonzales nomination to contact the chairman and ranking member of the Judiciary Committee as soon as possible.
ORDERS FOR WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 2005 -- (Senate - February 01, 2005) Mr. BROWNBACK. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that when the Senate completes its business today, it adjourn until 9:15 a.m. on Wednesday, February 2. I further ask that following the prayer and pledge, the morning hour be deemed expired, the Journal of proceedings be approved to date, the time for the two leaders be reserved, and at 9:30 a.m. the Senate proceed to executive session and resume consideration of the nomination of Alberto Gonzales to be Attorney General, as provided under the previous order; provided that at 2:30 p.m. Senator Byrd be recognized for up to 1 hour.
"I think that he (Thomas) has been an embarrassment to the Supreme Court," Reid said. "I think that his opinions are poorly written. I just don't think that he's done a good job as a Supreme Court justice."
Finally.....Go Pete!!!
Refreshing change...
I'm so glad Domenici is pointing out that Gonzales did not get the jobs he got because his house didn't have running water, but because he is qualified. Stuff that "I would vote for the story" Leahy. That's just nonsense. What they are always saying is isn't it just amazing that once in a while these poor, or black, or hispanic people can actually be smart.
Oh geez .. note to self .. get your eyes checked
It's not Stevens .. It's Pete Domenici
or..gasp..REPUBLICANS!
Alberto Gonzales is not going to be a Supreme Court nomination.
Domenici's number; call him and tell him what a great job he's done!
Will do right now
.
Thanks
Wait and see.
Thanks for info Howlin.
Oh, yes, he will.
Dick Durbin is full of it.
No one is answering the phone :0(
I am ashamed Dickie Durbin is from my home state. I hate these people. ALOT.

Domenici's number; call him and tell him what a great job he's done!
I just called and said I thought the Senator was doing a great job and she I was about the only one to call in favor of him.
Get on the horn FReepeers.
Oh great ... now it's busy
He's got that Boxer "we're just doing our job" line going. We don't obstruct all the appointments, only the really important ones.
I'm on hold now
