Dems Send the Senate into Closed Session Over Plame Leak

CSPAN 2

[LisaFab]

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

[dawn53]

That's my take, as I said in a previous post, you'll start to see "reasoned" dems pull away from Reid, especially when they realize the stunt has backfired with everybody but the most looney lefties, i.e. DUers.

[cajungirl]

Maybe your time would be spent better by being disgusted with Reid et al who seem determined to bring down Cheney and Pres Bush, to destroy morale of our soldiers, to deny the majority party the right to have a Supreme who represents us.

I mean, who is the enemy here?

Vent your disgust where it belongs.

[SE Mom]

BINGO! Just because I'm "fed up" doesn't mean I'm apt to fly off the handle like "our friend, Senator Reid"

I'm angry, not hysterical.

[Mo1]

I think the RATS overreached

You got that right!

[Christian4Bush]

Notice they did this right after Rush went off the air. I think they wanted at least 21 hours without his pointing out what loons they are.

Rush said last week that he was fried to the point of profanity over the Libby/Rove/Wilson/Plame thing. I...wonder...how...he...is...now...???

"The country isn't ignoring the substance of their message though. The Republicans need to own the message if they are going to sustain the will and they don't right now."

Agreed. Especially since they're making charges against the Vice Presient. Kennedy did that today. They're going after him just like blitzing linebackers and if the Republicans don't start protecting their quarterback, then it will be sack after sack. I want to see some Republican blitzing no more prevent defense.

Our side has an agenda. They dont have time for this noise. And noise is all it is. They were getting killed in the media, and they needed to change the subject. If you want to get them, just make sure that the budget passes(ANWAR), and we win the war, and we get Alito on the court. Trust me, nothing we could do would hurt them more.

[beyond the sea]

Reid losing it on Fox right now

And so far...... we remain calm

When you notice a cat in profound meditation,

The reason, I tell you, is always the same:

His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation

Of the thought, of the thought, of the thought of his name

[cajungirl]

I believe you, I am sickened.

[4integrity]

..I want Joe Wilson investigated..

exactly! 2 years of tax dollars were spent because of Wilson's lie.

[dawn53]

During the 2000 recount fiasco the posts on some threads were flying so fast and furious it was impossible to keep up.

[Christian4Bush]

I would say "Apology accepted Senator Reid" as he grasps his throat and drops dead as his windpipe is crushed by the invisible power of the Dark Side of the Force. Then I would look at the rest of the Rats and ask if any of them would like to apologize too.

That's what I had in mind.

[Repub4bush]

Thank you for being the voice of reason here!

You have helped me keep my sanity!

[Mo1]

Is it just me, or does Nelson almost sound like he is embarrassed by what his dem leader did today?

I wouldn't be surprised to see a number of moderate dems being embarrassed at what just happened

[Bahbah]

Rockefeller may have said sorry I missed the notice of the meeting (liar), but he went on to say that what Roberts said on the Senate floor was basically all lies. How nice!

[meyer]

I don't give a damn whether the Reps show a spine at this point. I have a Spine rock hard enough to make up for it. Bring it on Dems. One year from this point you are going to be writhing on the floor in pain at the election returns. This is no longer about the Reps, it's about you. You---will----Lose.

Isn't it ironic that the dems have done more to get Republicans to the polls than the republicans have of late?

[jec41]

Civil unrest? Are you serious? All 99% of the American people care about right now is that gas prices are falling and it's football season.

Yep thats true, however they are essentially being told that they are going to lose their lifestyle and its the republicans fault. 50% of the country does not vote or want any thing to do with the government. You might ask 20 of these what they think. Also 50% of the voters think the mean Bush administration is trying to take away their pension and SS.

[SE Mom]

Yep- and now I hear Trent Lott, once again the master of understatement..."things are a little testy here"...

[Mo1]

The talking heads seem to have their talking points

Since they didn't get Rove .. now they are trying to make up a scandel

[DarthVader]

The rest of the Dems would crap in their pants and I don't think there would be any takers.
