Why are you being so...so...so Dem-like about this thread? Why are you lambasting TLBSHOW for posting it? It seems pretty evident to me that Rush originally believed Garrett's report on FNC and probably got upset about it just like most of US did. I was here as a participant on the live thread the other night --- until 2AM or so --- and it DID seem like the GOP was caving. It was confusing to me and apparently to other Freepers as well. It must've seemed that way to Garrett and maybe he wasn't thorough in his reporting. Today Rush heard from Hatch and Frist who said the Fox report was wrong and he is relieved. What's the problem with that? Why would you say something like "need more schooling?" We should stick together rather than divide!

I was here until 2 a.m. and after and the Republicans were not caving -- Sen Frist, Graham, and Sessions proved that after most people had left. We tried to explain to everyone what was going on that best could be described as psychological warfare by the Republicans. A lot of defeatist on that thread didn't understand what was going on and wouldn't listen. Those of us who stayed until the end figured out what was going on.

Garrett is supposed to know all about the Congress and not make a mistake of saying this was an historic event and that the Republicans lost Wednesday night. It was obvious from his article that he did not observe what was going on.

Read the first part of Garrett's story -- he was dead wrong -- it was not an historic cloture vote as he stated.
