Is that a picture when Feingold cut and run from the Senate debate with Specter?

[gov_bean_ counter]

but the original 11 a.m. time for it is supposedly being rescheduled, according to an aide in her office.

No way would they run this during Rush's program. Won't matter. Rush and Boortz will have a lot of fun at her expense Monday.

Leahy: Mr. Dean - you see censure as a way to reaffirm the separation of powers and the rule of law for the future and whether the president has to abide by the law and come to us. If the president doesn't agree with the law, he can't just break the law. He has to come to Congress and change the law.

Dean: There's a healthy debate whether he complied and the president shouldn't want to be in that position. He has decided to use this as another vehicle to test his power.

[maggief]

Yes.

[Bahbah]

Leahy now misstating the issue. It was not a question of the President not agreeing with the law. Dean says the Prez is using this as a vehicle to test his power. What BS.

Nope, that couldnt be the reason.
How long would it take for her to stick her finger in a light socket?

[mewzilla]

Keep digging, Dems. Keep digging....

Bwah hah hah hah hah...

[Neverforget01]

Leahy doesn't think we've gone to Afghanistan either..

[YaYa123]

I'm LOL at Democrats going to a convicted felon like John Dean to advise them. He's a snake.

[Darth Malice]

dean fell to the Darkside long ago

[maggief]

Me too ... I'll keep checking 11alive.com for updates.

[jennyjenny]

Nerd alert....Fein talking again.

[Peach]

Leahy doesn't think we've gone to Afghanistan either.

I'd like to see every service member family who lost someone in Afghanistan flood Leahy's mail.

[Bahbah]

Leahy wants to use Dubai Ports World. WTF? He says they didn't follow the law there so why is this different when no one called for censure here. Oh, goody, now Fein is going off the deep end, which I suspected he would.

[YaYa123]

[Peach]

Thank you; big bold letters if you find an update on Cynthia's press conference. LOL
