This is going to break the rules!
I'm not gonna write a long diary, like I usually do!
Just thought I would share this Christmas cheer with all the boys and girls at Dailykos!
I had to put this story on dkos while I wait for Santa.
It's true! Senator Jim Webb, Senator Harry Reid and several others are making a special effort to foil the efforts of our very own Grinch, George Bush, during the Xmas recess!
US Senate stays in session to block Bush
The US Senate is holding special one man sessions throughout Christmas and the New Year to prevent President George W. Bush from making appointments without the approval of the Democratic majority.
I was wondering if they were going to do this again. I was waiting for the news of Bush's appointments after Congress left town.
Oh, incidently:
Webb, who is expected to convene four of the 11 scheduled pro forma sessions, said it was crucial that nominations be vetted by the senate.
A VERY Merry Christmas to you, Senator Webb!
