Durbin was great! Our DEM whip slashed the Republican Whip Mitch McConnell. "We'll come to the table on SS when privatization is off the table" "It seems as if the time is passed for Prez to slip this in as a solution to a crises. Now that people have had a chance to look, they see it won't help SS it will destroy it."
Apparently people have been holding demonstrations agains SS in repub districts!!! McConnell pretty much begging DEMS to come to negotiate about SS, but Durbin being firm that until the Prez takes the ridiculous Privatization off the table, forget it. ((With the repubs in majority, I think it's the only way to keep them from ramming it down our throats.))
The only press person up * a** was Kate O'Beirne of the National Review. " * is so great because of elections in Iraq" :puke:
"You people who don't support * 'wrong side of history' " :crazy:
Mike Allen of the Washington Post, I don't remember him saying much, can't even picture his face, but he seems solid.

Paul Krugman of the New York Times, looks like another REAL reporter is stepping up - made some good points about SS privatization simply not being the solution and even brought up taking away the tax cuts for those over $300,000 that we obviously can't afford.
In response to Hillary running he was a bit hesitant... mentioned the idea of triangulation? of BC era that we may need more to face a far right agenda and that she is getting funding from Republicans to run in 2008??!!
