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 know, thats my point. Whoever is spreading this information they're feeding from misinformation, Michelle Malkin included.
So instead of sitting on the floor, Gonzalez gets to sit in the gallery with Laura and the other VIP guests. LMAO
Who in their right mind wants to be associated with such negativity.
Do you have a link for that information?
Please see 483 and 485.
Well, the poster who was making those claims has disappeared, apparently.
Hopefully he was banned
Thanks for that link
Did you notice that he has a .gov email?
and it appears the Alberto Gonzalez who is a member, is a Democrat from Calfornia.
Ummm .. the Alberto Gonzalez that is up for AG is from Texas .. NOT Calf.
Sounds like someone screwed up
Here's my wish for tonight: That Bush would step up to the microphone and say something like: "well, before I begin my speech, I thought since the senators are all here that they get some unfinished business done. Therefore, VP Cheney, call the quorum and take the vote on our Attorney General nominee now please and let the American Public see for themselves how their senator votes on critical issues!"
I know, I know, it's way too much dreaming for 4 pm in the afternoon!
Gonzales was (and may still be) a member of the National Council of La Raza,

"Alberto Gonzales served with distinction on the board of directors of one of NCLRs oldest and most respected affiliates, the Association for the Advancement of Mexican Americans in Houston, Texas," she said.

Yep.
Thanks for catching that
You'd have to draw eyes on the sheets of paper, then fax them :)
You'd probably be better off leaving that one out in the future. :-)
Why? Can't handle the truth?
