Democrats DO have victory as a strategy. They want to beat Republicans. Again, they are fighting the wrong war at the wrong time.

Again, it's bad politics and bad strategy to worry about Murtha. Maybe he had a real change of heart, for whatever reason. Don't debate the MAN, debate the wrong-headedness of the decision.

Notachance. The next election is almost a year away - plenty of time for sheeple to forget, plenty of time for Republicans to shoot themselves in the foot again..

This is what makes FR great - one of the reasons. I would never have known about this Murtha/Pelosi corruption without your post. Sheesh. Not just Traitors - corrupt to the core traitors.

C-SPAN indicated they would cover the vote when it takes place. Internet streaming is at http://www.c-span.org/watch/cspan_wm.asp?Cat=TV&Code=CS .

It will be covered live on C-SPAN. Congress is in a recess and will resume shortly to vote. C-SPAN is showing the Q&A with Col James Brown from earlier today till then.

You didn't miss anything. No vote yet.

I hope there aren't last minute negotiations going on behind the scenes. Pubbies better not cave.

"Just came on the thread, but this reminded me of an episode of M*a*s*h when hawkeye gave a purple heart to a baby injured in the womb...
Sounds like someone's watching too much T.V."

LOL I remember that one.
Welcome to the thread- did you see Cspan with the dems hit the fan? It was crazy tv for sure. I had never seen anything like it before.
Yes, I am a Cspan geek! LOL

This is very sad for our country.

Indeed. I'm having trouble believing that this is really happening.

Waiting on convening. There will be debate before the vote
