Yeah, that's the same AP story that's everywhere. I'm becoming sadly obsessed with this, perhaps because work is irrititating me.

Oh, okay. I thought I heard that on the news, I guess they were just speculating or talking about a vote from the Senate Arms Commitee or something like that.
I thought that Byrd would be on the list. He was pretty vocal.
Dear Schummer and Clinton - phhbbbbbbtttt!
btw, it was MSNBC that gave the list of senators with the ability to just say No
(almost vaguely glad Edwards isn't there any more to vote for Gollum, because he so totally would have)
Evan Bayh is so totally my boyfriend. AND our next President!!
Can I have potato skins for lunch? I want them SO BAD.
