Gonzales Senate debate on C-Span 2

They are blathering about diversity.

Of course, they don't really want diversity. They use the term when it suits them. They want everyone to march in conservative lockstep.

Senator Byrd, when I truned on the TV a Senator told the new Senators to hear Senator Byrd, "he is the Encyclopedia" he said.
Byrd has an hour!

Dominance on GOP Agenda

Depriving Democrats of voters and money is among White House policies' other aims.

Am I understanding the Senator from Alabama, is he saying that we can do whatever we want to those captured in Iraq because they don't wear a uniform and because they came to the US and attacked us on 9/11 so they have to be stopped and the strong US will do the stopping? That *might* be a point to be taken if the Iraqi's had something to do with 9-11. This guys' statements should be watched because I believe his words will be the talking points on 'news' shows tonight but they don't add up, he's just continuing the myth that Iraq is directly responsible for 9-11 and Gonzales and Bush are protecting us. (I just have to hope there are some republicans who listen to what he said and feel some kind of remorse that he is speaking for them, he said some really stupid stuff, almost like he watches too much Hannity)

partly b/c I am at work, partly because it was soooooo bad.

I turned it off ages ago. But I like listening to Byrd.. He's a good one.
