Harry Reid got so sick of Chris Dodd and Richard Shelby dawdling all week over the two or three specific conjunctions and adverbs they need to clear up to finalize their alleged Agreement that he has gone ahead and scheduled a first cloture vote on the original Dodd committee bill for Monday, around 5 p.m. If they reach an agreement by then, they can introduce it as an amendment. Has Harry Reid ever read the Constitution? It says "Dumb Democrats shall not be allowed to put legislation on any sort of dumb timeline, jesus christ..." First Amendment, or somewhere around there.
