Oh Gee .. Durbin is playing lawyer on the floor now
Yes...Durbin is lining up with Reid and Kennedy...saying that the Reps are on the take by the corporations to settle this asbestos thing...
BUT, there was an article in the NYTimes today, (I guess), that says that the group NOT wanting this settlement is putting out hugh amounts of $$$$ just to defeat it...
I heard yesterday (maybe Rush)...that the lawyers (who Durbin, Reid and Kennedy are in the pocket of)...were set to get a HUGH amount of money 60 BILLION?, but this new agreement knocks that amount down..to where the lawyers only get 5%...the actual victims 95%...
Don't quote me on this...I am just "remembering" what I heard yesterday...I haven't been able to listen much this morning to the Senate.
