Yes, Darrell, we want to see the Fed torn down.

I think it is hilarious that the final minute of the democrats time, was taken up by someone who supports the bill.

I was thinking that too, I was like "What?"

 

[VictorB]

Who is going to get the tube up from that Kucinich rant? I need to watch that again and pass it along.

Yep.

 

[ronpaulfollower999]

I see Ron Paul with Kucinich at the bottom of the screen.

Yea but anyone can request a recorded vote on a voice vote, which is what someone did. The recorded vote will happen tomorrow.

 

[LostNFoundNTx]

Can anyone clarify what was meant by the statement "further proceedings on this motion will be postponed"?

They're going to do an electronic vote tomorrow, instead of passing it today with a voice vote.

 

[ChristopherShelley]

So vote will be tomorrow?

 

[Havax]

Everything is slow in the government. Why not just electronically take the votes now?

 

[Matt Collins]

Mel Watt just earned his PAC contributions today.

Looks like it, call your rep. if you haven't!

 

[Matt Collins]

Probably because most of those voting are not there right now?

Good things come to those who wait...

I think there may be rules for a quorum and also how long the vote must stay open, and even possibly how much notice is given before the vote can take place.

So, now they start working on getting some "yea"'s turned into "nay"'s...

edit: turn "nay"'s into "yea"'s ...
