But it's the Senate Republicans who are currently waging a filibuster to prevent the Homeland Security Agency authorization bill from coming up for a vote. How's that for messing with 'national security'? "...In two votes yesterday, Republicans, in one case joined by a handful of Democrats, defeated attempts to end debate and force a vote on the Democrats' preferred alternative." "...This is the fourth week we've been debating homeland security," Mr. Daschle said. "And while so many have been unwilling to report the fact that our Republican friends have been filibustering, the fact is they are stopping the completion of our work on this bill." washtimes.com
