A Brilliant move by the Dems
The Dems shut down the senate today and threatened to close the chamber each day until Republicans agreed to look into how Bush administration officials handled the intelligence used to argue for war.
G.O.P. senators quickly agreed to reopen the chamber and appoint a bipartisan group of senators to assess the progress of the "Phase 2" probe. Their report is due back now in just two weeks.
It was a brilliant strategy to knock Bush's indictment-evading stories (Supreme court nominee, Bird flu) out of the headlines. And an early sample of their offensive game over the Supreme Court.
Nice to know there are ways to fuck with the G.O.P. controlled government, even after they gain office illegitimately.
I just saw this, kudos to the dems for finally getting some nerve. frist's quote about this being an affront to the people is ridiculous, especially coming from mr tears and sweat. I hope he blows a lot of his own money running for president, the jackass
