No .. I'm too busy trying to plant my Barbara Bush rose bush .. smashing my head on the corner of the open window and lecturing my middle child .. who I spend thousands of dollars on to send to a catholic school, that failing religion class is not an option and to get studying and to stop making excuses

Geez I have a headache

What's he saying ?

Or better yet .. do I want to know?

Mo1---I AM almost afraid to tell you...sounds like your day is bad enough....LOL

Durbin has an amendment that calls for a "Windfall profits REBATE"!!!

Yeppers, he says that "any profits over $40 dollars a barrel of oil (the amount it was a couple years ago)..would as a "REBATE" to consumers, UNLESS, they use that money for exploration, ways to find others sources of energy, blah, blah..."...

Also, that drilling in ANWR is not going to happen (no reason given)...but, that even though he is "pro-Capitalism"...he isn't for the "fatcats getting everything, and the poor, nothing"....


Quiz: How many basic mistakes are in his "premise" to even suggest this amendments can you guys find??? LOL

Squawker Durbin is back up on the floor, bashing Bush. Same old, same old. Going after Rumsfeld, actually! Bringing up that bogus armor question!

Can you believe the stones on this SOB? WTH is my duct tape?

Awesome! Bush was right again, not that I am surprised. That explains Dickie's rantings. They are always so off base.

One of the unfortunate offshoots of that type of operation.

I saw Durbin; this man makes me ill. His diatribe against Bush and Rummy and yelling and screaming was ludicrous. He is so filled with hatred for this country and our troops, that he just can't contain himself. We will never forget the day he stood on the Senate Floor and called our troops Nazi's. And yet again, not a single republican came to the floor to counter his hatred. Makes me mad.

He's talking about Cardinal Mohoney .. so I'm guessing it's about the immigration bill

Feingold up with an amendment to pull troops from Iraq by Dec 2006
