Family Planning Amendments Act of 2004

[7,052,770]

I apologize I was unable to do this yesterday, but I was involved with school from 7:30am to after 11pm and never got a chance to log onto the forum at all.

I hereby open this act for voting.  All in favor say aye.

[migrendel]

Aye.

[StevenNick]

NAY!!!

[7,052,770]

Aye

[Akno21]

Aye

[The Dowager Mod]

Aye.

[7,052,770]

It's now 4-1 in favor of Aye, with 6 senators yet to vote.

[migrendel]

Does the other half of the Senate plan on voting?

[King]

Abstain.

[Platypus]

It's a hard one, but aye.

[7,052,770]

It's 5-1, with one abstention and 3 senators yet to vote.

[Nation]

Nay.

[7,052,770]

5-2, 1 abstain, and 2 more left to vote

[migrendel]

While we of course await the remaining two votes, we have now secured the necessary margin for passage. I hope the administration will support my bill.

[Akno21]

StatesRights and IrishDem still have to vote. Knowing States, I don't think we can override a veto on this bill.

[migrendel]

Let's not put the cart before the horse, Akno. We don't know if the administration intends to use its veto power on this.

[Jake]

This is a sick bill. Now we see what a danger it was to put migrendel in office.

Also, Mr. President you are a amoral man if you don't veto this bill.

Dubya, two things.

A) I believe, if Republicans had used Preferential voting, Migrendel would not have been elected.
B) This is not a sick bill. All it does is encourage the use of contraceptives, which is a good thing, and is basically a pro-choice bill.

A) I heard someone say that earlier and that seems really stupid now.  We'll have to rectify that in December.

B) I'm sorry for using my definition of sick.  I believe anything that violates my beliefs like abortion, gay marriage, beastiality, and the use of contraceptives is sick.  I will use a different word in the future.

Still I oppose this bill and would hope President Kennedy feels the same way I do.

[??????????]

Nay.

So anything that violates your beliefs is sick? Isn't that being just a little closed-minded?

It's called sticking to your beliefs. I believe certain things are wrong, and sick. We all do.

I don't like parts C and D of that act at all, but, I may be willing not to veto this little thing if the Atlasia National Energy Act proposed by Sen. Nation gets a little support swung its way by a few of you lefties.....

That said, I do dislike C and D quite a bit.....

Mr. President, compromise on some issues, but in others you just got say no.

[migrendel]

I think I know what would be a good compromise. I will agree to strike section c, since the issue is rather minor, and my vote on a national energy proposal that in no way alters EPA and CAFE regulations in exchange for your signature.

As for Dubya 2004, I have learned to consider only opinions that do not make gratuitous use of adjectives like "sick". We're in the twenty-first century, and I'm sure my constituents understand the importance of contraceptive services.
