RE: Re: Feingold amendment
As a mere Englishman, I'm not quite sure what "table" means in this context. My guess is that it means "put it on the agenda", i.e. fix a time to discuss it later, but that doesn't look right here, because you are saying that the amendments were rejected.

And of course in British "Knock me up at 7:00" means "Wake me up at 7:00". DCF ---- For all we have and are For all our children's sake Stand up and take the war The Hun is at the gate -- Rudyard, of course
