GOP Pulls Fast One... Tells Dems: Pull Troops Now? Okay, then let's vote!!!!! Tonight. 7 p.m. in House... Ultimate showdown...

[Forest Keeper]

The person acting as speaker now is not Hastert.

I know. I meant that Hastert is still the one and only Speaker of the House.

Where is the live action??

House in recess until 7:00

MSNBC: New grand jury empanelled in Valerie Plame matter.

Can Harry Reid read?
I could be a simple explanation that he is dyslexic, and has trouble reading...

[Howlin]

kathy, do you know who those six were?

And how can they say that they were denied access to the "real" intelligence when they never saw what was offered?

[LadyBuzz]

Feels like New Year's Eve - let's start the countdown!

Absotively

[SeaBiscuit]

Can they do that or was that sarcasm. God, I hope not, my nerves won't take it.

[LS]

You've got this one dead wrong. If a majority of Dems support (and if it's worded this way) "an immediate pullout," then they are finished in the 2006 elections, and I'll have to change my predictions to a +30 GOP edge in the House.

It will be political soooo-eeee-cide for House Dems from conservative districts to vote to pull out. Absolute sooooo--eeeee----cide.

I think that's what the person was referring to, though - who was acting as speaker - wanting to know who it was.

Does "IMMEDIATE REDEPLOY" mean immediate retreat? He's said it about 4 times now, he must mean it.

[old_sage_says]

Maybe, you should ask one of the congressmen from MASS.

[proud American in Canada]

Is there room for one more here?

I'm relatively new to the party, too, so maybe you can stand with me. :)

Turkeys can fly. I have proof everyday in my back yard.

There are about 80 to 90 wild turkeys that pass through twice a day. I just turn my Husky loose and watch 'em fly.

These House Democrats are like fish on a line.... They are wiggling and squirming to escape. LOL

[Diva Betsy Ross]

Yes- and for once in our long history since Vietnam we may see who it is that is preventing our troops from getting the job done and coming home to their families safely. I pray it starts tonight.

[TheLion]

Recess in the House

[AGreatPer]

Interisting. While Murtha's statements will make it big on the Sunday talk shows, this vote should take a lot of that away.

[Frank_Discussion]

I'm just saying, try to understand that taking the sucker punches like gentlemen hasn't been working for us Pubbies. A great deal of us are pretty pumped about the idea of our representatives going for a groin shot. The Dems have earned it.

And then some.

So lighten up, and understand that Howlin is, uh, *spirited* in her patriotism.

I got Popcorn here....everybody dig in.
Pizza is on the way....;o)
