1. Good - now it may go down and not pass
either the House or the Senate. The compromise, according to Russ Feingold, was worthless anyway.

4. The key is the reversed direction of movement:
take any known Mercurian action, reverse its flow, consider the keywords "re-doing something", "double-checking", "finish the old projects" and there you are, you've found the good side of Mercury retrograde.

For instance, you may want to read again a book you particularly liked, a subject you studied before, meet and discuss with old friends you haven't met for a long time, travel to places you've already been to before, or re-think authorizing the death of the civil liberties of your constituents.

5. Holy fuck.
That is serious brinksmanship, with nothing less than the future of liberty at stake.
