I wonder, if Traficant gets to put on his show, if he'll bring up the Jack Thompson stuff. Now THAT'LL be interesting.

He made some good points. I was surprised to see Rep. Paul stand in favor of this motion, his pronunciation of my home state "O-hi-yah" notwithstanding.

Except for cheating. You have to factor that in. The Kennedys were good at it.

I just chowed down. No surprise that Darrell Issa is supporting Traficant.

I don't see two-thirds vote there to expel right now because of this issue. Hastert would never have brought this to the floor without the votes.
To: shetlan
Thirty minutes to defend himself. Not very long. It seems like the railroad is pickin' up steam. I feel like Jimbo's going down
To: palmer
Paul made a big deal of the change of venue of Traficant's trial from Youngstown to Cleveland, which apparently was for the convenience of the prosecution. He said this was highly unusual, which, as I far as I know, it was. Why wasn't a bigger deal made of that change of venue?
To: Howlin
I love these live threads...almost like having all of you here in my house with me!
