Unfortunately, those SOBs already pushed back the adjournment date a week. I remember from 2002, the last serious year this was a threat, they pushed back the adjournment date several times.
That year, only Abramhoff saved our ass.
Believe me, they have plenty of time to pass this if they want to, because they will not adjourn as early as Oct. 9. THey will keep pushing it back. I know they have to have some time to spread the bullshit in their home states before the elections, but if history is any indication, they'll go well into October.
