3. I know, can you beleive they are gonna sit there..
..and try nothing? I just got off the phone with someone at Senator Levin's office and I posed the Nuclear Option to him. He said it has to be proposed as a rule change at the begining of a congress and that maybe they could do it next January, but no sooner.

I mentioned getting some changes done to the senate bill through reconciliation and he said there are limits to what you can do with that and I said why is it that bush got things done with that, and all we do is wring our hands about "limitations". He said don't lose faith, they're working on it.

I hope everyone on DU will take a minute each day to call their Senators and Reps and keep the pressure on, I know many of you already do this but we need every voice we can get.
