Harry said that he has heard the Republicans want to shut them out of debate like they were going to before, until he took the floor for an extended period of time. If he starts to read from his book again and I'm not around, give 'abner' a ping, she liked his book. :)

Oh! I almost forgot, Frist came out with stats showing that the outsourcing flap is all wet. I'll have to check the record for the details, but if I heard right, the net between US outsourced jobs vs. 'in-sourced' from foreign companies came out with a US surplus of $54B. We gained more than we lost. Now we need to take a better look at what he was talking about if his measurements were in dollars not jobs, because of the lower cost of foreign labor. But at the least, it just goes to show how complicated the issue is.
