Vinegar and Crumpets Anyone?
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Senate returned to its daily work late Tuesday after Democrats enacted a rare parliamentary rule forcing a private session (search) of the chamber so senators could speak in secret about the lead-up to the war in Iraq.
As a result of the session, in which Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Pat Roberts (search) and the panel's Ranking Democrat Jay Rockefeller (search) sparred for 40 minutes about whether Republicans had failed in their oversight of the Bush administration, lawmakers set Nov. 14 as a deadline for six members of the Senate — three from each party — to assess the progress of the committee's investigation into pre-Iraq war intelligence.
"Today the American people are going to see a little bit of light. On Nov. 14, we're going to have a phase-by-phase idea of how they are going to complete this (investigation), finally," said Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid.
The committee will also meet from Tuesday through Friday next week to review staff findings.
The Dems have finally grown a set? This has nothing to do with politics. No no no. These two lying parties really do deserve each other. Get down girl, go ahead get down.
Update: 11/19/2005 The Republicans pulled a sly move friday night and forced a vote on the subject. The result was overwelmingly in favor of keeping our troops in Iraq.
