Perhaps you should listen more and spout less.

Did you vote for B*?? :shrug:

4. I took it just as you did breeze
asking those that don't (IE most of congress) to examine how they'd feel if they did have kids there. Putting it right in their faces.

10. That is a very thoughtful thing to do!
I think thanking the reps for doing the right thing is a great way to give positive feedback!

Just like kids, if you emphasize the positive and not the negative; they respond. ;)

I think C-Span will have a lot of transcripts available tomorrow, at least through links.

I think the Senate will also have transcripts available. They usually do! ;)

Great job!! :hug:
