I thought they dropped the timelines because they didn't want the bill vetoed again and that in addition to the timelines they also removed a variety of domestic pork.

Random thought - what would happen if politicians didn't owe favors and campaign $ so they actually represented the concerns and beliefs of their constituency?

Fisher, I grew up in politics and have an inside understanding of how it works. ;-) I also have family still actively involved with politics on many levels and both sides of the politician and lobbyist fence. Believe me when I say that I know more about the system than the average bear.

A politrickshun actually listen to debate? Maybe they listen, but it is only to the people with money who put them in office

but who cares, as long as the Fed gov't is giving so much money to its friends? Oops, I meant to say as long as the gov't is securing our nation. Makes me really like working from Jan through April for the Fed Gov't


Ah yes, I can see that I mistook partisan cynicism for "an inside understanding of how the system works...Well, more so than the average bear"...Red

Hope everybody down there is having a good sales month...I'm a little surprised at no takers on Kerrey's column...
