FISA House debate is starting ... CSPAN

[thunder rising]

Rep Lamar Smith R-TX starts in support ... Republican terra terra terra

[w8liftinglady]

1. why does this not surprise me?Anyone need a roomate with kids in a liberal state?

[rwheeler31]

5. I wish we were in such a state, but roomate

with kids wanted.

[skids]

33. House is too small for kids...

...don't suppose you'd be looking to get rid of those anytime soon, though :-)

[desi]

2. It is apparent that Reyes has rolled over already.

This crap is going to pass with the help of Dems. Conyers will hopefully put up a good fight.

[thunder rising]

3. Zoe Lofgren D-CA

starts the opposition ... goes far beyond what needed or necessary.
If passed will work to regain all and more of the rights lost.

[thunder rising]

6. Roy Blunt R-Mo ... pugnant ass

terra terra terra. critical legislation must be passed. Terra-ists regrouping (who'da thunk) and we must be able to spy on anti-war groups and political opponents (ok, my take on it)

[desi]

9. Our heads are going to be spinning over this abomination

Alberto Mitchell-Gonzales will be more powerful instead of being impeached.

[buzzard]

4. Is this a replay?

[thunder rising]

8. No the Senate passed their version last night

The house is debating.

Silvestr3 Reyes D-TX "we've heard the exagerations before" (not a quote)

John Tierney D-MA Americans expected to be protected not just from terra but from those that would take away the constitution. Strong language, angry

[desi]

10. Somebody must have told Reyes that protecting our rights

is more important than going home on vacation.

[w8liftinglady]

7. I'm watching

[thunder rising]

Louie Gohmert ... you need to understand we are in a war

...There is a difference between civil rights and constitutional rights between peace and war.

This guy is a dunce.

[w8liftinglady]

11. Dear God-I apologize in advance for the stupid Texans-i.e. Gohmert

what a stupid motherfucker

[pinto]

12. Gohmert (R) has a PhD in jingoism, imo.

With a minor in moran.

:eyes:

[babylonsister]

13. Nadler said what I'm thinking-nice to hear! nt

[thunder rising]

14. Nadler - D-Ny

this bill is not to protect Americans but to protect this administration from it actions ... woooo whhhoooooo

Words are being requested to be stricken.

The reporter is looking for the quotes.

But we have them here, due to sharp bloggers.

Words are voluntuarilly withdrawn ... don't be talk'in bout my Preznit like that.

[thunder rising]

15. Trent Franks R-AZ

Do they have enough O2 there?

Nukular jehaaahhhhdddd. Against our children.

[thunder rising]

16. Mark Kirk R-Ill reminds us Bin Ladin did it and will do it again

but fails to mention that HIS admin is NOT looking for him

[babylonsister]

17. SHEILA JACKSON-LEE is going at 'em! Everyone should see this video! nt

[Terri S]

18. She DID kick butt! n/t

[thunder rising]

19. Sheila Lee D-TX (Houston) call BS on this version of the bill

WE ARE SHREDDING THE CONSTITUTION. NO MATTER WHAT YOU BUSINESS YOU ARE UNDER THE UNSCRUPUS (sp?) scrutiny of this admin

[earthside]

20. Is the outcome of this vote predetermined?

From the way Rep. Reyes started this debate, it sure sounds like passage is going to happen.

[spotbird]

22. Yes. We're screwed. nt

[thunder rising]

21. lungren seems to be worried.

If the fix was in, the Repugnants wouldn't get excited

[thunder rising]

23. Issa R-CA, wants to be reflective

Arabs can't understand why the American Preznit can't spy on Americans.

Bush would have intercepted Bin Ladins instructions.

[thunder rising]

24. Conyers brings up reverse targetting

Reps want us to trust AGAG.

[Terri S]

25. Rogers...

I know you hate the Attorney General, I know you hate the President, but don't you love the soldiers?

[thunder rising]

26. Fossella R-NY 911 911 3000 children lost parents

terra

[thunder rising]

27. Republicans seem to be experts on the tubes and internets

It's funny.

But you have to think it was clever of them to get those RNC email accounts and keep them clean. And, it turns out that file sharing is not kept.

[The Witch]

28. Wait, now? I thought it was already done.

:tuning in: now this is saturday night broadcasting.

[thunder rising]

29. Yes now!!

[WilyWondr]

30. The PROBLEM Rep. Wilson is that this administration

has been breaking the LAW!

[thunder rising]

31. My Favorite Heather Wilson R-NM

Technology has changed.

"Reasonably believed" "significant purpose" trust AGAG

[countmyvote4real]

34. I would love to flash Janet Jackson's nipple at her.

Heather Wilson is even more antiquated than the original FISA law.

[thunder rising]

32. Mel Watt D-NC ... I'm here

He thinks we don't trust AGAG. He's right.

[thunder rising]

35. Debbie Wasserman Schultz ... Go .. reminds us of Schievo

under Repugnant rule.

[thunder rising]

36. Debate is over

Mahoney FL-16 Blue Tick Dem (AKA DINO) if you vote Aye, I'll do my best to see you unseated next year. That is everything I did to get you there will be put against you. Phone call parties, donations, and every conversation.

[thunder rising]

37. Dems cave ... yet again
