I've done a bit of digging since yesterday. There is a big question regarding the inclusion of the Harkin 'affirmation of Roe v Wade' vote that Rick Santorum allowed just before the final vote on the PBA ban. The fecal material may be about to hit the whirling blades, tossing detritus back and forth between the House and Senate. I'll know more by mid-week, but thank you for posting the 'busy' work that will 'occupy' our elected reps this coming week.
