Damn GOP senators are squeamish about making anything inconveeeenient for "rats....

Where does it say that?

[Mr. Thorne]

Probably doesn't. I got the impression while watching C-SPAN. Here's Hatch, going great guns, and he slows down to make nice with 'my friends across the aisle.'

I couldn't be a senator. I could NOT be that collegial toward people who would backstab me, and insult my friends and associates for political gain.

I'm doomed, it seems, to the private sector...

I think we should keep putting those e-mails on those important senators thread. Also if you have a demo senator in your own state, keep sending them messages.IMP

Hmmm. I think I got my articles mixed up. I think the article you linked to in the previous post was the one I meant the comment for---in reference to the fact that the 'pubs would let the 'rats go home at night, etc. to make the filibuster easier for them. Sorry!
