Dear Senator DeWine:

It is always refreshing to see a Senator vote his own mind as you have done regarding cloture for the Defense spending bill. It allows us to make a clear decision when voting. Unfortunately, since I am not a constituant, I am unable to partake in your election campaign. Solace can be found however in voting against my own two senators here in Wisconsin and knowing that I will have an opportunity to send money to your opponent in your next election.

I understand that, which is why I mentioned Chafee and DeWine first. Frist had no choice once it was determined that they didn't have the 60 votes necessary.

Conference reports aren't debateable, so the Senate cannote conduct internal negotiation on the DoD Appropriations Bill, beyond agreeing to vote on it as it is constituted.

Technically, debate is open on the bill, but as a practical matter, the option of amending (unilaterally) is not available. The talker on C-SPAN2 said the house would be in tomorrow. If not, they do have dates between Christmas and 2006 listed on the calendar.

AP reporting that there may be a deal on the Patriot Act.

The report sounds like passing as constituted, with a promise by Specter to bring up separate bills early next year to make some of the changes demanded by those opposed.

I put this on the wrong thread - about Craig talking to Rush



To: OXENinFLA
Craig is getting on my ever last nerve

Does he really think liberals care about laws?

Says he is not worried about the PA in the hands of Bush .. his worry is in the hand of a President Clinton

Then Craig says he would agree to 3 month extention .. but not 1 year

HELLO!!!
