Yes, I posted this diary last week but it came to my attention during the MoveOn phone-banking party that I hosted this weekend that there are still lots of people that haven't voted yet AND don't know what the amendment issues are all about. So here it is again.

With early voting in Florida starting today and a current rec list diary showing that there may be some confusion over just what the constitutional amendments mean, I thought it would be a good idea to post a guide. So I am.

So I'm checking out the news online this morning and from behind me I hear, "What the hell is this?" I turn around and ask my wife what she's talking about. She tells me that there's a story on the Long Island Wins website about a reporter effectively publishing the address, down to the apartment number, of two undocumented workers that he used as sources for a story. Undocumented workers who asked that their last names not be used to preserve their anonymity.

Had a PB&J sandwich yesterday. That was it for the peanut butter. My wife and son had something to eat earlier...I said I wasn't hungry, I'd find something later. Of course, as the title suggests, I'm fucking starving, but I figured they needed it more than I do, you know how it is.

But this diary isn't about me.

Reposted from yesterday because we still need signatures.

Well, we've got a chance to get rid of one of Bush's main Congressional cheerleaders, John Mica. What are we going to do with it?

The is debating the Levin-Reed Amendment to the defense appropriations bill which requires redeployment of troops out of Iraq within 120 days of enactment.

Harry Reid has requsted a simple majority vote on the Levin-Reed Amendment to the Defense Authorization Bill.

Reed is "Jack Reed" of Rhode Island a Democrat and Levin is "Carl Levin" of Michigan also as it happens is a Democrat. Worth noting as it is the Republicans who refuse to budge on our troop deployments.

Text of the amendment is here: S. 2766

The Republicans are filibustering and Harry Reid says that they have to actually debate in this filibuster rather than simply voting on cloture to quash the effort to get an up or down simple majority vote.

So thirty hours of debate is the order of the day, night and day again.

This is not political theater. This is democracy folks and had we done this before we went into Iraq we might have avoided this fiasco.
