Todays Floor Debate

Sen. Edward Kennedy (Democrat Senior Senator of Massachusetts) and Sen. Judd Gregg (Republican Senior Senator of New Hampshire),

Sen. Kennedy was on the floor or the Senate today. He debated a bill on Math and Science Education in our country. We are currently twenty-four out of twenty-four countries placed in both Math and Sciences he said. This is a bleak outlook on our educational system.

I left the room for a minute and came back and looked at the television and the discussion turned to how the Vice-President has lied to the country over and over again. How he has mislead the country down a path that is wrong. Into a war that is sinking into a civil war.

After Kennedy’s speech Sen. Gregg was the second Senator to rebuff Sen. Kennedy’s statements. Gregg said that he thought we were fourteenth on the scale. The battle for this bill raged on as Gregg cited numerous time of how he was Governor of New Hampshire during the President George H.W. Bush’s Presidency. How the first President Bush wanted to be known as the education President. However, he thought why waste taxpayers money. Possibly, because this is Education and it is very important to New Hampshire, to New England, and to the country. It makes it interesting why some people think his seat is vulnerable.
