Mr.Assange will have to stay behind bars because he will eitherbe staying behind bars because there is an appeal and will be in court either late tomorrow or early Thursday.Or, because we haven't got 200,000 pounds which we can deliver to this court in cash.

The Swedes won't abide 1 by the umpire's decision and they want to put Mr.Assange through yet more trouble ,more expense,more hurdles 2.They clearly will not spare any epense but to kept Mr. Assange in jail. This is  really turning in to a show trial and we will be in court again within the next 48 hours.

If the people who had voted for him have switched sides then he would be out of the job but easily would be plunged 3 into a police circle crisis. But as it is, he survives narrowly to fight another day but what high drama it was inside the chamber 4 of deputy at one point.There was even as a scuffle between members of the parliament says that someone switch sides,he said they will gona to vote against Berlusconi then they presumably voted for him. And then outside, there was a considerable violence as the whole collision of different protest groups had clashed with the police. And there were two tear gas,rounds fire, lots of firecrakes and small bombs and flares,bottles,stones things thrown to police.

That massive winter storm, we've been talking about for the last couple of days, is moving east now. There's also a deep freeze across the east all the way into the deep south.Where,here in Altanta, is colder today than it is in Philadephia.But look at this, out West, very different problems all together. Rain and flooding and mudslides.Rivers in nine counties in Washington states. As Washington state have already crested 5 at or above flood stage on the weekend.Amtrak said its service between Seattle and Vcancouver,Canada, has already been down since Saturday.It's going to remain halted for at least two more days because of mudslides.

I know how much time we have before Christmas, but remember--and I hate report all this to you, but, you know, there is still Congress after Christmas. So if Republicans think that because they can stall and stall  and stall, that we take a break,we are through.We are not through.Congress ends on January 4th. So we are going  to continue working on this stuff until we get it done. Or we'll have up-and-down votes and find we--it can't happen that way, but I understand where Christmas is.

We may have to work on the weekend a little late to get it done.

Yes, the answer is yes on both.

Well, I think that the people on the Appropriations 6 Committee worked very, very hard. I think they have a very good piece of legislation and I think we are going to move forward with that.
