Quote of the Day

In a closed mandatory meeting for Democrats preparing for the 218-214 vote to authorize a timetable on the Iraq deployment.
After at least a half-dozen episodes of clapping, Representative David Obey, a Wisconsin Democrat who is guiding the Iraq bill as chairman of the Appropriations Committee, had an outburst of his own.

“I don’t want your applause, I want your goddamn vote!” he screamed, his voice perfectly audible to the scrum of reporters waiting outside the room.
