She looked like she was straining to smile, and in typical Democrat fashion, trying to spin a loss as a win. Murtha looked like he was blubbering, and Hoyer was preening for the cameras.

Since "Free Republic is an online gathering place for independent, grass-roots conservatism on the web. We're working to roll back decades of governmental largesse, to root out political fraud and corruption, and to champion causes which further conservatism in America.", I and others think it's a good idea to centralize what the goes on in the Senate (or House).
So if you see something happening on the Senate/House floor and you don't want to start a new thread to ask if anyone else just heard what you heard, you can leave a short note on who said what and about what and I'll try and find it the next day in THE RECORD. Or if you see a thread that pertains to the Senate, House, or pretty much any GOV'T agency please link your thread here.
If you have any suggestions for this thread please feel free to let me know.
Here's a few helpful links.
C-SPAN what a great thing. Where you can watch or listen live to most Government happenings.
C-SPAN 1 carries the HOUSE.
C-SPAN 2 carries the SENATE.
C-SPAN 3 (most places web only) carries a variety of committee meetings live or other past programming.
OR FEDNET has online feed also.
A great thing about our Government is they make it really easy for the public to research what the Politicians are doing and saying (on the floor anyway).
THOMAS where you can see a RECORD of what Congress is doing each day. You can also search/read a verbatim text of what each Congressmen/women or Senator has said on the floor or submitted 'for the record.' [This is where the real juicy stuff can be found.]
Also found at Thomas are Monthly Calendars for the Senate Majority and Senate Minority
And Monthly Calendars for the House Majority and Roll Call Votes can be found here.
THE WAR DEPARTMENT (aka The Dept. of Defense)
~LOL~ TX my first job I made $1.72 an hour and it wasn't a union job. Never did work for a union.
That first job was the first and last union job for me.
I like living in Texas..it is a "right to work" state..
Even my husband, who works for the US Postal Service has never joined the union...
AZ is a right to work state, too. Though some groups would love to change that.
Charade.

Doesn't look like there is anything worth watching
?????????????????????? like everything else that he spews, illogical and spun to the extreme.
Thanks for the ping!
Just as we thought...the MSM will do everything in their power to cover for...and prop up that ding-a-ling.
I cannot imagine living in Lou Dobb's America. Thankfully, no one does live in his twisted hatefilled description of this, the greatest country on earth.
What must it be like to wake up every day and see nothing good, only ugliness and despair. What a pathetic man, and what a pathetic life he lives.
OT, white gold is it, but he won't tell me aanything else. Two weeks today. OK I am insane. :)
I don't know if any of you watched any of the speeches at the Federalist Society or not.
I missed Haley Barbour's speech...but I did hear his Q & A...
He was asked about fed $$$$ for Katrina damage..and he said that his state did just fine, thank you very much...and he said that Louisiana has the same federal government that his state does...and the FED did just FINE....LOL
He was asked about maybe running for the Senate some day...and he said that in all deference to the Senators...he told Sen. Lott one time that Senators go to Washington to talk about government...but, Governors actually DO the governing...(big laugh)...
I loved what I heard...I am going to try to catch a rerun of his speech later.
Then, Chertoff came on...and I missed most of his speech, but the part I did hear made me very uneasy...he was talking about how the US is already incorporating international law in our courts...using the Hamdan case as an example....and that we Americans will just have to get used to having international law be more and more common in court decisions....BLECH!!!
I left him right then...but, at 5:00 PM EST this evening, Dick Cheney will be speaking in front of the Fed. Society LIVE...I plan on watching that one.
Your comments on Chertoff are horrifying.
Not just the lib supremes are pushing for international law, but the dems in congress and senate are pushing in that same direction.
They are attacking our constitution from so many directions it's impossible to stop the flow. Chertoff needs to be listened to and people need to understand the danger.
We fail to pay attention to his warning at our peril.
I also heard him say something to the audience about going to Europe and watching trials or something...I didn't catch all of it, but he was exhorting them to go to Europe..
I HOPE it wasn't to see "how it is done"..in a "good" way...I hope he meant to go see "how it is done"..so they can spot similar stuff coming over here.
Well then I hope they go to Germany. German courts require ALL of the facts to come out. None of our tricky rules of evidence.
Since I am going to try to watch a replay of Haley Barbour...I may try to watch Chertoff's...I missed some, and so I want to take it all in context...
I plan on watching VP Cheney's this afternoon...but, I never know with kids what will happen...LOL
