Mo1 - I got a flash drive a few months ago and it's easy to transfer an entire file of research (different threads and articles) to the drive and then when you get the new computer, plug the small flash drive into your new computer and move everything back to your new hard drive.
thanks for the tip, think I will try that. what is happening with the Patriot Act? I have been in and out today and have no idea of what happened.
I'm unclear what happened to the Patriot Act too.
I heard on the radio news that several different votes were needed by the Senate...before the Patriot Act is sent back to the House..
AND, that there is still a possibility that the dems could force 30 more hours of debate...
But, that is all I heard...I wish Cboldt was around, he usually knows what is going on...
Thanks for the update, Txsleuth. Brit will probably have more news tonight; I've had FNC off for several days unless I hear there's some breaking news. It's much more relaxing :-)
Yep .. the week I took off from the news really helped me
But now Ross Feingold is up complaining about the reauthorization bill on the PA will pass
Also .... Thanks for the tip on the flash drive!
I know what you mean...I have my granddaughter to keep me distracted from this whole Dubai thing....at least most of it.
What's Russ talking about?
It sounds like he's reading the Constitution.
Why is he reading the Constitution in fulll ???
Yeah, but why?
Is there some point he's trying to make?
Yep .. besides grandstanding .. what is the point of this?
There is time allotted for debate on the PAct. Is he just trying to fill the time so as to stall it until the last possible moment?
allow me to put my tin foil hat on for a moment
impeachment ?
Nah, that just happened to be part of the text. I think he's just delaying the vote. If so, how childish.
Good guess IMO...
Pres. Bush is out of the country, they usually like to rattle their sabers when he's gone.
He's trying to pull a Bryd ??
Possible .. but he already admitted that he knows the PA will pass
Yep .. and they also like to embarrass him right before he leaves for over seas
Hmmmmm ... can you say port deal ??
Read along with Russ.....
