Harry Reid just made a motion, that was seconded, to send the Senate into closeed session.Schumer, Rockefeller and Durbin are before the press asking for a Senate Intelligence investigation into the Plame affair
PHAZE 2
That's the point. It was just a "stunt" as Roberts just said. This is just an attention-getting stunt.
That's exactly what I picture, that pic of Daschle but with Frist's head.
IOW, Dems did this for a soundbite of being able say they had to close down the Senate over the Libby affair.
To get the cameras rolling in the halls, to play to their base and to make news.
To create the perception Reps weren't operating in good faith, to get media attention, to throw a tantrum their days of power are rapidly drawing to close.
As well, to try to win back the love of their whacked out base.
I have a few choice words he could use!
they didn't... they had an agreement a couple of years ago
Hold your fire
Roberts says this was ALREADY in progress and no reason for the Dems to do this
So what in sam hill is going on now?
Roberts? Geesh...look at that Republican roster on the Senate Intel Committee, it's pathetic.
I want Joe Wilson and the CIA investigated.
I urge EVERY FREEPER to send your collected info to your Senator.
I've just managed to get to post #40 in this 700+ thread, so somebody may have suggested this before, but I would suggest you send this article National Review: Did the CIA Out Valerie Plame? (REPEAT, REPEAT & REPEAT-THE MSM MAY NOTICE?)
and a copy of the 36 news agencies' amici curiae brief to the court of the grand jury about the Plame case. The copy can be found in a link in the original thread (5 lines below the sub-heading: The media goes to court...and sings another tune), or at this URL: http://www.bakerlaw.com/files/tbl_s10News/FileUpload44/10159/Amici%20Brief%20032305%20(Final).PDF
Not only will your Senator's get a good overview of the whole story, but they will also get a paper to shove in the face of every journalist, and ask them what they have to say about this document which was sent to the Court by their own organizations not 8 months ago.
1,000 posts in two hours for this thread. I think we Freepers are pissed off. ;-)
That's why you are not an elected official. I'd love to do it too but that would be the point of no return.
And all the news nets break away as soon as Senator Roberts (R) starts to explain what Section 2 is. That was close, wouldn't want the public to hear what it actually is, rather than how the Democrats portray it through their media spinners.
I am sure the dims will talk. Roberts is TICKED off. As well as he should be.
We have spine, we just don't bow to the level of the scum dims. Who does but evil doers.
Thanks, rvoitier. I watch the NFL and don't watch very much college ball, although Mr. Peach watches.
I heard Durbin say that AQ had nothing to do with Iraq.
We have GOT to remind the left that Clinton's Justice Department obtained a federal indictment against OBL which states that it was known that OBL had an agreement with Iraq not to attack Iraq in exchange for weapons development.
p.s./ / /still, I wanted more. . .they cannot continue to get away with pulling this garbage down on the heads of Repubs and Bush Administration! More than 'grrrrrrrrrrr'.
