One more to go on final passage of the bill as amended.....

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Thank you. The Lieberman amendment was defeated??? Along with the Daschle amendment? How sweet it is! And the Thompson amendment was approved?? And now the entire bill will be approved after being stalled forever by the Demonic Dems? And please somebody tell me - does this mean these agencies will give the President the freedom he needs to hire into these jobs THE PEOPLE QUALIFIED FOR THEM AND NOT THE CLINTON HOLDOVERS WHO WOULD BE MANDATED TO BE THERE IF THE DEMS HAD GOTTEN THEIR WAY?

[Quilla]

Thank you! Ol' McCain sticks out like a sore thumb on the loseman amendment.

[Miss Marple]

Correctomundo, Freedom! I have long thought that part of this is to get TRUSTWORTHY people defending the nation all in one department, and allow the rest to stay where they are and push papers. It is strategery.

[Wphile]

I notice that Johnson (D-SD) voted with the dems in every instance. Dang, sure wish that John Thune had won that one! South Dakotans must be so proud - NOT!

[Wolfstar]

Thank you, Deport, for posting the votes. We who are cubically challenged are enternally grateful to fellow FReepers like you who make the effort to keep us informed.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Thank GOD! I hope everybody is ready to move ahead on the workings of this bill immediately!!! We need to get the trustworthy people into these positions as fast as possible.

[aristeides]

Thanks for those vote listings.

Jeffords voted AGAINST cloture, when Leahy voted FOR???!!!

[abnegation]

The RATS are trying to throw in some "farmers drought assistance" bill right now (2:22 EST)? Bring home more pork in the lame duck instead of actually voting on Homeland Security. This sounds about typical to me for the RATS.

[YaYa123]

FOXNews showed Trent Lott calling President Bush aboard Air Force 1 giving him the news that Homeland Security had passed.

Ya know...Trent Lott really is, just a cheerleader.

[deport]

Trent trying to make points with the President now as he calls while the President who is now on AF One..... Reports that all will be passed by the this afternoon.. And will take up the terrorism insurance ...

[Miss Marple]

Oh well, let them have a little TV time...they did good.

Now the President is going to try to get some sleep!

[Wphile]

Sheesh...just tuned back into CSPAN2. Dorgan is giving some speech about farmers wanting to pay income taxes.

When are they going to get to the terrorism insurance? And Judge Shedd? That's what I want to see.

[abnegation]

I'm there too......The RATS just can't seem to help themselves. They are trying to push through some "drought" assistance to farmers and whining about "the administration" not supporting this legislation. Pooh!

[Dog]

Can someone telling what is going on on CSPAN II......why is Daschle whining???

[abnegation]

Daschle whines because it is all he knows.

[Txslady]

*Rolling my eyes* Dorgan says it is unpatriotic to not pay taxes... hmmmmm... interesting thought BYRON (moron)!

Watching the Senate Dems whine... sorry couldn't resist-- I'll try to behave while waiting for the HS vote.

[Wphile]

Well, they can take it out of the farm bill. The farm bill called for certain "market loss provisions" which did not take effect because the market went up and those appropriations will not be made. The money is in the farm bill. They don't need a separate provision.

[Dog]

This has the look of a filbuster.....what is going on here???

[goldstategop]

The Daschle realizes also this is his last moment as illegitimate Majority Leader.
