Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) Will ask for a 60 vote threshold to pass debt deal
Edited on Sun Jul-31-11 08:47 PM by Hello World
just now on CNN tv

Hopefully, between the teabaggers, and the liberal caucuses this terrible bill is defeated, and they will be forced to pass a clean bill like they should have from the start.

4. Good. I hope the bill fails.
i am sure he thinks it is terrible for different reasons than I do, but we agree the bill is bad policy.

11. I believe only one senator needs to request it.
I don't have a link though.

16. Actually, they were hoping for over 70 votes anyway.
So this might be a teabagger's last, desperate breath.
