Since "Free Republic is an online gathering place for independent, grass-roots conservatism on the web. We're working to roll back decades of governmental largesse, to root out political fraud and corruption, and to champion causes which further conservatism in America.", I and others think it's a good idea to centralize what the goes on in the Senate (or House).
So if you see something happening on the Senate/House floor and you don't want to start a new thread to ask if anyone else just heard what you heard, you can leave a short note on who said what and about what and I'll try and find it the next day in THE RECORD. Or if you see a thread that pertains to the Senate, House, or pretty much any GOV'T agency please link your thread here.
If you have any suggestions for this thread please feel free to let me know.
Here's a few helpful links.
C-SPAN what a great thing. Where you can watch or listen live to most Government happenings.
C-SPAN 1 carries the HOUSE.
C-SPAN 2 carries the SENATE.
C-SPAN 3 (most places web only) carries a variety of committee meetings live or other past programming.
OR FEDNET has online feed also.
A great thing about our Government is they make it really easy for the public to research what the Politicians are doing and saying (on the floor anyway).
THOMAS where you can see a RECORD of what Congress is doing each day. You can also search/read a verbatim text of what each Congressmen/women or Senator has said on the floor or submitted 'for the record.' [This is where the real juicy stuff can be found.]
Also found at Thomas are Monthly Calendars for the Senate Majority and Senate Minority
And Monthly Calendars for the House Majority and Roll Call Votes can be found here.
THE WAR DEPARTMENT (aka The Dept. of Defense)
They are absolutely RABID.....I am just not believing this. I knew they were low, but this is just insane.
"Who was it that decided not to inform you that it was Cheney who pulled the trigger?"
It's official the press has lost it totally. "Would this be more serious if he had died?" WHAT A MORON!
Probing question for the decades... Reporterette
"Would this be more serious if the man had died?"
I wish my husband was home. This is making me truly, honestly nervous. These people could start a world war all on their own.
It may have been both. All I heard was the levee part, comparing it to the discrepency about what was known when.
LOL..........all by Sunday morning! A job well done!
Now asking if Scott would think it was serious if the guy died
What part of he was prayed with pellets do they not understand
The VP DID NOT shoot the guy point blank
You're exactly right.
"Brazil about to make nuclear weapons and export enriched uranium".
I hadn't heard that and I guess Scott hadn't either.
Already coined by Laura Ingraham.
And now the cables will cut away from the press conference because there are no more questions about Cheney's PULLING THE TRIGGER..........LOL.
IS IT A CRIMMINAL OFFENSE?!?!?!?
WTF?
I think I'm going to a Belk sale on a major shopping trip. I need therapy after that.
They are making fools of themselves
Notice they don't talk to any ACTUAL hunters
Did the VP at least get a bird out of this mess? j/k
Can somebody explain to me why this "information" needed to "emerge" as soon as it happened?
I guess so they could "feed" on in faster......they're rabid dogs.
Talk to any hunter and they could tell of a similar story
