Recent reports indicate that Rep Reyes, Chair of the House Intelligence Committee, is rolling over for the Prez on the issue of telecom immunity, and that the House may be voting on the Senate bill passed last month. A big win for the Prez, and a big loss [another one] for the House Mama.
I previously had Pelosi winning big, as there was not a whole lot of noise coming out of the White House [see earlier posts], and the bill was languishing in some dark hole off the House floor. Obviously, the evil people in the WH were working behind the scenes to twist some arms rather than adopt my straight on, in your face, strategerey of all out confrontation.
Ah, I will never understand politics. I want politics to be more like football or hockey, or even WWE throw them over the ropes so they land on their heads, when you have an advantage.
As of this morning, the bill is not back on the floor. Perhaps the dhimmis are waiting until super-duper tuesday II is over before giving the bushitler his victory.
Meanwhile, I still believe that we did not lose any intelligence, the gaps being covered by our friends.
