Senate OKs Detainee Bill

Another boost for President Bush and America, from NewsMax:

The Senate on Thursday endorsed President Bush's plans to prosecute and interrogate terror suspects, all but sealing congressional approval for legislation that Republicans intend to use on the campaign trail to assert their toughness on terrorism.
The 65-34 vote means the bill could reach the president's desk by week's end. The House passed nearly identical legislation on Wednesday and was expected to approve the Senate bill on Friday, sending it on to the White House.


Hmmm. Wonder if he'll sign it? You know how he loves that Veto! (Ha Ha).

Here's what one Democrat had to say:

There is no question that the rush to pass this bill — which is the product of secret negotiations with the White House — is about serving a political agenda," said Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass.

Typical. They can't stand it!
