Morning business now up. Conrad Burns now talking about Myers (one of the ones explicitly tossed under the steamroller by McShame and company).

I thought debate was closed for the Owen vote. Is Burns up speaking for Meyers under morning business?

Vice President Dick Cheney and Sen. John McCain walk towards an elevator on Capitol Hill, Tuesday.
I don't know how much body language and facial expression really mean, but which of these individuals looks like he just got a shiv up his backside and which one looks like he delivered it? Matters to ponder.

I could be dead wrong, but I don't Frist is going to let those thrown overboard stay there! I think they will call them up for a vote!

This comment slipped by quickly. Frist did in fact say that the use of the nuke option is only going to be used in unless the filbuster is extraordinary. This is a retreat from the prior statements that ALL nominees should get an up or down vote.

I thought debate was closed for the Owen vote. Is Burns up speaking for Meyers under morning business? The Senate is always changing the rules (in favor of the DemonRATs).
