So I'm watching 'this parallel universe' (thanks Rep. Silvestre Reyes)
in the House. The Rethugs are barbarians who love torture. I cannot believe what I'm hearing.

Go Rep. Anna Eshoo. It is a very sad dark moment for America.
The barbarians have taken over. Weep for America.

CSpan1.
Stand up to them Dems. Slam the door shut. Over ride the veto!!

1. Eshoo hit that nail on the head.

I was wondering why the Reptilians were bringing up FISA, now its clear they were tryings to distract from this override vote. Reyes and Eshoo are making some pretty good points, but the Reptilians are still trying to give Bu$h what he wants with all their whining and crying.

7. I'll give the House Dem's
Edited on Tue Mar-11-08 05:04 PM by vpilot
credit, every time the Reptilians try to change the subject the Dem's steer them right back to torture. Focusing on torture is a great way to keep rubbing their noses in it. LOL, "what's this waterboarding, is it a cousin to skateboarding?", thank you Rep Doggett.

Able Danger Hoekstra hasn't missed a single buzzword or fear tactic yet...why don't we send him to Syria to look for those WMDS.

12. Hoekstra is like a broken
record, distort distract, distort distract, distort distract and on and on. He keeps bringing up FISA when everyone else is talking about torture.

14. I don't think they will have
enough votes to override the veto. It look like it will be a vote along party lines, every Reptilian will vote no.
