When I watch our politicians 'debating' something on TV, all they are really doing is enjoying themselves playing a clever intellectual game of one-upmanship with words but it's all just a complete and utter waste of time and money because the decisions are already made and all the 'debating' in the world isn't going to change anything. I don't really know why they bother to spend their time talking about it.

haha, it was a race against the clock and i think i lost :( i had to access my mythtv at home remotely through vnc and didn't have a vnc viewer on my workstation. downloaded it, installed it, started recording, went to live internet feed and they're talking about taxes :(

Keep recording. Burr is on the floor talking about it right now. The way the Senate works, they won't talk about a single topic for a set period of time. They'll have several topics slated for a session and the Senators will talk about them when they have the floor. That means one guy might talk about taxes for a while, then one guy might talk about closing Gitmo, then one may say some stuff about tobacco legislation, then back to someone talking about taxes, then back to tobacco... lather, rinse, repeat.
