1. Reid pulled the Senate into Defcon 3--i.e. closed session.
The Republicans are going berserk--sobbing about how it's an "affront" and an "insult" to them.

2. Harry Reid took the Senate into closed session
to talk about Intel, pre-war.. and why the report has never come in.. Kind of took Frist and cohorts by surprise..

6. I guess they don't want another Roberts to slip in.
Because it has to come out that Roberts was part of the cover-up.

7. Reid took the senate into closed session
DEMANDING that the investigation into pre-war intelligence be continued. They're going to do this every day until the Repubs agree to put it back on the spot.

10. Reid gave the Repukes a taste of a post-apocalyptic Senate
It left a sour taste in the mouths of the Repukes.

And Reid wisely used the Plame affair as the reasoing for this taste of a post-apocalyptic Senate.

15. In a nutshell,
Edited on Tue Nov-01-05 04:24 PM by DancingBear
every damn Dem is shouting "Truth be demand, dammit!" :)

Seriously, Reid put the Senate into closed door session - all Dems are standing firm that Phase II of the investigation into Iraq intelligence(which has been promised by repub Roberts for almost a year but has not (and, after Libby, would not have) started.

The Dems are threatening to go into closed door EVERY DAY until they get a hearing on this faulty intel.

The Repubs, of course, are "outraged."

I am damn proud to be a Dem today.
