Here we are again my friends, hopefully for the last debate thread on this particular monstrous legislation. Proceedings are supposed to begin at 9:30 a.m. EST, with the cloture vote being taken at 10:30 a.m.

On a personal note, you've all been wonderful in your passion, vigilance, and commitment to the principles on which our country was founded. If I have to be in a foxhole, I want to be in it with you guys.

I can’t believe that Bush supported this SOB (Spector) for re-election.

Now, you know why.

Hey, stop beating yourself up. The choice was him or Gore or Kerry. We should have made a better choice in the primary, but as I remember it our primary choice was him or McCain.

What we need are some conservative leaders to step forward...

[kempster]

Needless to say Bush supported this fool for re-election because they think alike. At least on this issue.

Specter: "The Baucus vote was cynical maneuvering," but the "clay pigeon" strategy was not?!?

Has anyone noted that on those automatic calls that the operator says “if you speak English, press 2”.

Now why is English ‘2’ in this country? What is ‘1’?

******WHAT?*****************

>For the record....I actually voted not once but twice for BUSH...Talk about regret...My apologies to ALL..<

No need to apologize - I’m mad as hell at Bush, but I’d rather have a 6th rate fireman than a 1st class arsonist! (Gore or Kerry).

Voting Yes on Cloture is akin to winning a second spin when you are playing Russian Roulette. It is a second chance for you to harm yourself.

[gridlock]

Voting for (yes) cloture ends debate and the bill goes to the floor for a vote!

Wait a minute! Martinez said they would ge tot work on it some more!
