Everyone should write their Senators NOW and ask them to kill the Pension Reform Bill. It's not too late; the bill goes for a vote in the Senate sometime this week. If it does pass in the Senate, hopefully the WH shrub will veto. He has threatened to do so in the past if it favors one industry over another. Not sure if it does that though. If Bush does, it will be the one thing he does that I would be happy with. I would like to see the bill killed, and taken up again next year after these damn republicans are out of there.

Did you know that the bill calls for the protection of executive pensions if the company goes into bankruptcy? Did you know the bill allows airlines 10 years to fund their pension, with the exception of Delta and Northwest who will have 20 years to fund theirs? That's because some Repub. congressmen in the conference were from Michigan and Minnesota. Hmmmm! Rick Santimonious was in the conference, but obviously useless, or really doesn't care about family values. Full details of the bill's contents are unknown to me. Anyone else know???

Congressman George Miller of California called for a motion to reonsider the bill demanding that the Akaka Amendment and all the other airline provisions in the Senate version of the bill be restored, but it was voted against overwhelmingly by the Republicans. Only Sam Johnson, R(Tx) voted against because he said the funding provisions were unfair to American and Continental Airlines.

If you are PO'd write. If it doesn't work at least we've tried!

I'll write to Spector. Santorum is a bum.

Remember November!

YES I AM

You're either a senior exec; hit the lotto, or robbed a bank.

Santorum has gotten just plain creepy in search of the conservative fundamentalist vote. This site helps...

Dear Fellow Pilot:

The House approved the pension overhaul bill, but at the last minute the Republican's took out the Akaka amendment, which would have raised the PBGC pilot age 60 retirement from about $29,000 to $45, 000 per year.

Regards,

All i can say is HILLARY - 08!!!!!

Bush wasn't elected. He was annointed by the Supreme Court.

went to the supremes because of a lack of overwhelming majority from the left.....

 

[robbedagain]

[diogenes]

Mostly, progressives believe in the rule of law.

Mostly, Republican politicians lie, cheat and steal.

Do the names Abramoff, Delay, and Ney ring any bell?

Who has subverted the Fourth Amendment?

And if you think it's cool for Bush to create all those new powers for himself, will you be so sanguine when Hillary has them?

That chick has got a mean streak!

No Rainbow warriors in my schools, 2 supreme court justice appointments, a huge pile of dead islamofacist and growing, and the dow about to hit 12000,
...my vote was worth the trip to the polling booth

As was record deficits, almost 3,000 AMERICAN soldiers killed on a known lie.

No bid contracts as Bush-Chaney buddies of industry get richer and you cant even get a minimum wage increase.

Six million jobs lost.

Shall I continue?

Wasted vote, Bush lied Soldiers Died, Clinton Lied he stained a dress.

 

[badchoochoo]

It doesn't matter who you vote for...they ALL lie!

I dont know the rainbow warriors comment means.

The 2 justices may be the only success, from a right wing point of view, of this president.

The dead islamofacists is kinda debatable. Sure we killed a lot, but I think its safe to assume if we didnt go into Iraq, they would have gone to (or stayed) Afganistan to be killed by us there. I dont count Iraq insurgent and civilian deaths as victories in the war on terror.

The dow is nice, but middle class americans dont care about the dow so much, they care about the cost of heathcare, gas, and education. All things that have gone up tremendously under GOP rule. Meanwhile wages haven't. The economy has put up good numbers, but 90% the benefits have all gone to the top 10%.

Just my point of view.
