I've been gone most of the day. Anything important re: the torture bill yet?

5. Short thread on this.
There may be a longer one in Kerry forum, but I haven't checked it in awhile.

7. senate today
Senator Jeff Sessions R-AL peed his pants today yelling about "Terrorists"

Senator Bill Frist R-TN Displayed how their torture bill works, on a live cat.

Senator Allen R-VA Repeated the word "Macaca" over and over again.

Senator Lindsey Graham R-SC Came out of the closet.

Senator Ted Stevens R-AK Drafted a special spending bill, in it funds for 10 Bridges to nowhere.

Senator Libby Dole R-NC Overdosed on Viagra, after mistaking her husbands prescription for hers

Senator Roberts R-KS Proposed a bill to locate the first "Terrorist" detainee facility in Kansas.


So nothing really happened today at all
