Well..the legislation they passed in the lightening round of votes last week..(with no GOP participation)...HAVE tax increases in them.

If the GOP in the Senate and in conference don't fight what the Dems in the House did...it is not going to be good.

I wish I was better able to understand "congressese"...so I could pick apart these bills as they come up for a vote...but they use language that I have a hard time deciphering...

IF the Ethics Bill that the Senate passed, passes both Houses..the legislation, bills, amendments SHOULD start to be posted online before they are voted on...I think.

[Mo1]

I hope too .. but we also need to face the facts ... they do have the media to cover for them

That's why our side needs to get off the harping on Bush crap

He's not running for election .. and if the Dem continue to be in charge .. they will push through the fairness docterine .. and all those talking heads who have been harping about how bad our side is ... will be out of a job

These Dems aren't playing games .. they are playing for keeps

[onyx]

Words of wisdom, Mo. I agree with your every word.

[onyx]

It's overwhelming.

[Mo1]

HAVE tax increases in them

And the public doesn't know this

the legislation, bills, amendments SHOULD start to be posted online before they are voted on...I think.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong .. but I have a hard time finding them

I can find the summary .. but I have a hard time finding the whole thing

Well .. I need to head out .. I got up very early this morning and I am wiped now

Sweet Dreams y'all

Or maybe Joe Biden can read some creative passages from someone else's book and take them as his own.

He could read some of Richard Burton's notes from his Nile expeditions.

Also...watch these candidates for POTUS...especially the Senators...they will be campaigning against BUSH..even though he isn't running.

But, if they take on BUSH...the MSM will be more on their side..and the will put off the inevitable paybacks from the other Dem candidates..once they start taking on each other.

BTW....Tomorrow on C-span 3...at 9:30 ET...will be a hearing with Levin about Petraeus' nomination or appointment.

Then, at 2:30...a hearing about Intelligence Reform with UGH..Rockefeller...

Thomas Jefferson started the tradition of sending the State of the Union address over as a written text rather than delivering it in person, because he didn't like to give speeches. That continued until Woodrow Wilson revived the idea of addressing Congress in person. Having it as a big TV event is obviously an innovation of recent decades, but I don't recall which President first gave it as a live televised event.

[Txsleuth]

Good night, Mo1...busy day tomorrow...and then the speech tomorrow night...sleep good!

[onyx]

Thankfully, I have an appointment with my dentist at that very hour. :0)

[Mo1]

Thanks .. but it's the talking heads need to figure it out themselves before it's too late

I took a chance and listen to Laura Ingram this morning for a bit (hoping she got off the harping bs)

Well a caller called in and mentioned that we need more radio persons to talk more about the good things that are going on in Iraq

She proceeded to rip his head off and went on a rant about how she did go to Iraq and she has been talking about all the good things the troops are doing

Which is all true

But the problem is .. that wasn't what the guy said .. he was talking about other radio folks .. not just her

[Mo1]

Also...watch these candidates for POTUS...especially the Senators...they will be campaigning against BUSH..even though he isn't running.

EXACTLY!!

That way they can dodge the tough questions/debates

[BigSkyFreeper]

I don't know what I'm doing wrong .. but I have a hard time finding them

I can find the summary .. but I have a hard time finding the whole thing

I think that's what the Democrats intend.  They don't want you, me, or anyone else to know what they're up to. 

So much for this "open government" crap Pelosi and Reid were hailing and promising the day after the election. 

 

[onyx]

Wow -- apparently, she's not a good listener.

[onyx]

They've never been up front. CULTURE of CORRUPTION.

Lord Acton: "Power corrupts, but absolute power corrupts absolutely."

They need the WH for absolute power.

[Txsleuth]

LOL...thankfully???

I gotta tell you....I would have to be tied to my chair without a mute button, and Hillary talking non-stop for an hour...before I would choose a dentist appointment.

[Txsleuth]

Did you hear Laura interview Arlen Specter???

That was painful.

[BigSkyFreeper]

I happened to catch the last hour of Rush today, and he had a female caller who sounded worried that the conservative hosts would not be trying to inform the public about what the Democrats are going to be up to. He promised her that it is his job to inform the listener.

I really haven't been listening to Rush all that much since I had left for Denmark. For one, the computers there didn't have speakers, and two, his show came on when we were invited out for supper.

Far as I know, Rush has not been saying anything bad about Bush, or trying to plant the seed of anti-war into his listening audience.

It's easy to list the things Bush must say to rally the country, but he isn't going to say them. Congressional members are behaving disgracefully, but they are getting away with it.

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand....

[Txsleuth]

Laura seems to have an "agenda" in her way....she is very head strong..and, boy, when she thinks she is right about something....she will go on and on and on.

I listen to her in bits and pieces...I usually get mad at least once a day and turn her off...LOL
