Where were the other 4 senators?
Gonzales was confirmed 60 to 36. Where are the other 4?

I think that the total for and against Rice was less than 100, too

3. Inquisitor General Gonzalez is against torture!
Of course, he has a quirky definition of torture... so uh... yeah.

4. Probably at home...
The 2 repubs were from Montana and GWB visited there today. I read a quote from 1 of them from MT so assume the other was there also to greet the prez.

As for the 2 Dems -
I was from Hawaii and I don't know where he was.

The other was Kent Conrad from North Dakota and he was flying with GWB on Air Force One to Fargo for the soc sec rally there.
