Senate Republicans Fight Hard on 'Rove' Amendment. Live on CSPAN2
CSPAN2 | 7/14/05

Posted on 07/14/2005 1:58:01 PM PDT by LisaFab

Anybody else watching the Senate on CSPAN 2? Reid just had his "Carl Rove' amendment to the Homeland Security funding bill read and spoke for about five minutes bashing Rove and Bush.

THEN, the clerk read an amendment proposed by Bill Frist that any office holder who discloses classified FBI information on the Senate floor and uses it to denigrate the U.S. military should have HIS security clearence removed. DURBIN alert!

Wow! Great stuff. Turn on CSPAN 2 immediately!

Why do the Republicans have to fight?

Don't they have a five-seat majority?

It went down by straight party-line vote, it appears.

That'll teach me to vainly believe in incipient signs of sanity from a Democrat Senator anywhere, anytime.

Uh, yes, which just prevailed on the party line vote that just concluded.

Was it Durbin or Levin that released info on our secret weapons program?

A Boxer-Inhofe amendment? That is very strange.

No kidding! Not a single cRATS had the fortitude and/or integrity to call BS on this obvious travesty! All of this crap based upon news reports ~speculation, rumor and innuendo ~ the hell with the official investigation ~ obviously truth and justice are without merit to the elected members of that party!

I expected a no vote from the likes of my Dem Senator, Brave Sir Robin Dayton, but I was hoping for a smidgeon of integrity and courage in at least one Democrat.

It was allowed through after a brief recess ("quorum call") for McCain to look at the amendment.
