Reid should call the senate back in today. We have a bill in front of us, there is a Government Shutdown in 48 hours. Listen, i would love to be in houston with my two little girls playing with them this afternoon, but as you know im here in washington, d. C. , as you know the senate should not be on vacation you know, the senate has acted, the majority leader would say, passed a bill to keep the government open. And then weve gone back to delaying or defunding obama care. Should they take a part of it . Would you filibuster this bill . Lets be clear what the senate has done so far.

NORTH SMITHFIELD – For David Rawlings and his partner, Gillian Welch, their roots in folk music run as strong and deep as the call of the open road.
The two have shared the stage with such musical greats as Emmylou Harris and Joan Baez and they often find themselves on the short list of featured collaborators with other musicians of their genre. Their style, which has alternately been described as country, bluegrass and Americana, won them a Grammy this year for “All the Good Times,” a collection of covers released in the midst of the pandemic last summer.
