So this is what Sen. Reid thinks is REALLY important

The Senate has been ordered, by Reid, to hold no votes after 3pm tomorrow, September, 15 so as not to disrupt the high-dollar fundraiser for Republican-turned-Democrat, Specter.

According to an e-mail sent to supporters from organizer David L. Cohen, the event features a $1,000 cocktail reception, another VIP reception for those who raise at least $10,000, and a dinner for which "an individual must write (not raise) a minimum of $10,000 or raise $50,000" to attend.

The majority party’s move to cut out of work tomorrow delays progress on next year’s transportation spending bill and health care reform. If senate leadership is so willing to make room on its schedule for one senator’s fundraiser you have to ask, Where exactly do the priorities of this Democrat-led senate lie?
