TRIAGE

This is pretty rich

Senate Panel Sends a Mixed Message on Wiretapping

The bills are conradictory!

One is a joint bill with Feinstein.

I have a guess.

It is a 'fuck you' from the Judiciary Committee to the bushers who pushed to get king george's bill through. Rather than bow to the pressure directly, they passed all three.

This way they all get to fly under the electoral radar in the 2006 cycle.

Ball-less but clever.

Now the three bills will float through the halls of the Senate and Frist will exercise his usual maladroit leadership to it and nothing will be done.

Three stones to kill one bird.
