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 we will 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 ,Senate Republicans and Senate Democrats
And Monthly Calendars for the House and Roll Call Votes can be found here.
THE WAR DEPARTMENT (aka The Dept. of Defense)
Watching Dingy Harry herding cats on the Senate floor is fun to watch.
I channel Elmer Fudd. LOL
I think he means that she has never said the words she was wrong or made a mistake .. like Edwards has done
Just that she would have voted differently

Senate egos are impossible to control. Several running for their party's nomination........LOL.
No, calling them insane gives them an excuse ..
They are BOLD FACE LIARS
One in particular is staying on both sides of the issue. LOL
Yes Ma'am! Post 666....lol.
Oh, Tester was there. Voting 'Yea' as usual.
Thanks mystery. Coleman and Collins will be getting emails from me. They only voted the way they did because they are up for reelection -- what a shameful display of weakness by them. Al Franken is going to run against Coleman, I bet he wins! Coleman showed me today he has no spine, and I sent him money in 02 -- how do I ask for a refund? I'll do so in my next email to him.
NOTICE: Collins and Coleman voted with the DEMS.
JERKS ...
I wonder why Hugh will say about Coleman now?
Coleman (R-MN), Yea
Collins (R-ME), Yea
Yes, Txsleuth, BRAVO!!!
COleman can kiss my frozen white butt, if he expects a DIME out of me!!
I am also sticking to "The PLEDGE"
I'm not even gonna bother e-mailing my Congressman. The last time I did that, that goofball Max Baucus put me on a damned e-mail newsletter list that I can't opt-out on. Well, I did one better, I put his address in a spam kill filter.
McCain and Landrieu. McCain was holed up in his office while 10 Code Pinko MOONBATS barricaded him inside.
Thank you...:-)
Is that for real...or did you just daydream that scenario??
Republicans and Democrats carried out their clash as 10 members of "Code Pink," an anti-war group, were arrested and charged with disorderly conduct during a protest in front of Arizona Sen. John McCain's office in a building across the street from the Capitol. "They were absolutely compliant, peaceful," Sgt. Kimberly Schneider said of the protesters.Source: Fort Wayne News-Sentinel
So, McCain wants to lead us in the WOT but 10 chicks in pink kept him inside his office to miss the vote? :-)
