Patrick Leahy, an obviously beaten WUSSY, just says in a defeated tone, "I request the yeas and nays..."

SENATOR DEPENDS IS A BEATEN MAN...WHAT A WONDERFUL SIGHT TO BEHOLD.

90 to 9 just shows that Dems have no courage of their convictions. They bitched and moaned for months, and when they couldnt win, they threw in the towel, so they wouldnt be held resposible for their own votes.

Cowards.

My heart goes pitter-patter when I see BI-PARTISAN support. I certainly hope that the Republicans will SHARE the power now that they are in control.(/Lib Rant)

TERRORISM INSURANCE BILL UP NEXT!

First, cloture vote...then passage.
Sarbanes is begging to pass the bill. Amazing ain't it, how cooperative these RATS are when they're in the (impending) minority??

Never have seen Zell up in the chair...nice to see him there.

Maybe he ought to be approached about taking a more permanent role there in the 108th Congress.

Yes, that was the earlier, and closer, vote against the Democratic amendment.

hmm.... virtual reality senate. I like it. Maybe they are all just figments of our imagination and the programmer finally got all the bugs worked out. No wait, I still see Hildabeast running around down there. One can only hope.
