Seems the Senate votes on amendments to the FISA-fix bill, the Protect America Act, aren't going to happen this week after all.
The Republicans on Monday decided instead to drag it all out toward the Feb. 15 deadline by pulling a fast one and invoking a call for 30 more hours of debate on the economic stimulus package. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid was pretty pissed, accusing the R's of stalling the FISA action on purpose to squeeze the D's into a quick, losing vote as the deadline approaches.
