OK .. I found another post which might explain it better

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/818543/posts?page=212#212

Well, see, Frist had a deal with them to bring up what umemployment bill first, to get it passed.

He introduced Hillary as a sponsor. When she was recognized, she immediately said she wanted to AMEND the bill to make it for ALL unemployed people for 26 weeks (in other words, they sandbagged Frist.)

Then Daschle gets into it, saying why can't we do it for 26 weeks, for ALL the people, not just a few...blah blah blah.

Finally, Santorum had had enough. He asked to be recognized and said (something along the lines of -- but almost exactly this) "Senator, just what exactly is wrong with THIS bill today? This is the VERY SAME bill that YOU proposed and that YOU passed while you were Majority Leader.......now WHAT is wrong with this bill now? Or are you playing politics."

It was ABSOLUTELY fabulous!

Thanks so much for that info. See, I
gave up(too tired) last night and went
to bed. Then, presto!!! Here it is for
me this morning.

But hoosiermama, BlessedAmerican and
Kath also were involved and wanting
to know.

Hope they see your post...

Santorum, bless his heart, is going
to be PERFECT to stop these horrible
Dems from running over our guys. He
comes over as a nice, sincere and
handsome young man. Credibility is
written all over him. So, when HE
CUTS LOOSE ON THEM, WOW!

FWIW..
