Me too. I freaked when I first heard that he voted "yea". LOL
This will be the roll call vote that stripped ANWR from S.2863.
N.B. as this post is entered, the link is there, but the vote results aren't up yet - they will be in due course.
Wait, did you say the Patriot Act just passed? When did that happen?
Oh Gawd .. Hellary is on Gretta now
Again...I thought she was on the other night...are you sure it isn't Natalee Holloway's mom with a new 'do??
S.2167, extending the current Patriot Act by 6 mos., passed on unanimous consent shortly after the roll call vote of 93 - 0 that passed the DoD appropriations bill, stripped of ANWR.
LOL .. no, I know what that pant suit looks like .. it was Hellary
These Senators are tricky, McGavin....you really have to watch and listen closely...
One has a tendency to tune out some of the "unanimous consent requests"...because they are by #, and become monotonous....but, the Barrett report almost got buried in an stealth move...that wasn't announced on the Senate floor...it was included in as a UC to a bill.
Said she would conclude in a few minutes
Uh---oh....Mary just said the dreaded words....she said that she wants this 29 BILLION dollars "espcially", because this money is NOT designated to go to FEMA...but DIRECTLY TO THE POLITICIANS IN LA!!!
Oh, dear...bye, bye, BILLIONS...
You know what bothers me about that Greedy Witch .. She TOTALLY ignores MS and AL
It's all about bailing out the socialist state of LA
She also stressed that this 29 Billion and the 8 BiLLION was just a START...and that when they come back next year..she will start in on coastal and housing..
MY GOSH---how many cities in America will start praying for a hurricane or tornado or earthquake so they can have the federal government PLUS charities like Bush/Clinton...come in and build them a whole shiny brand new city???
Too bad Detroit isn't on the Gulf Coast..I am sure those people would LOVE to have their city subsidized by the whole USA.

"MY GOSH---how many cities in America will start praying for a hurricane or tornado or earthquake so they can have the federal government PLUS charities like Bush/Clinton...come in and build them a whole shiny brand new city???"
If you weren't being sarcastic you should be ashamed of yourself. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.
DAng...all of the REPS that voted against ANWR are northern states...that use a lot of energy in the winter...they better NEVER complain about foreign fuel costs...
Also, isn't it convenient that McCain isn't there today to help Stevens...
LOL---you don't spend much time on this thread do you??
Of course I was being sarcastic..jeez louise...
