Yes folks, I know it's a couple of hours away, but for you loyal C-Span listeners, the debate will be carried live on C-Span 2 today. Live streaming on C-Span 2's server for those of you with high bandwidth carriers.
Box-o-Rox has asked for a full hour in which to call Dr. Rice a lying slut. Meantime, the senior Senator from the state of West Virginia has brought some friends of his down to testify to Rice's unfitness for her office:
Other Dhimmis have asked for time to object to Dr. Rice as well. Meantime, I wonder if McCain or Hagel will actually rise to her defense?
(...sound of crickets...)
Arlen Specter? Anybody?
Be Seeing You,
Chris
LOL! Is he still in the pokey, or is he out now.
There are some "RINO"'s. People like Hagle qualify under this category. People that use the label to get elected by have no loaylty to the Party.
We have some "CINO's". Those that are loyal Republicans but Liberal in policies they embrace.
The real threat to a conservative agenda isn't found among the "RINO's" or "CINO's". Th real threat is found among Republicans that are loyal to the Party and are conservative but too scared of the MSM to take the hits to put this agenda in play. The minority can be overcome if the majority stands up and subjects itself to fire. What the Senators need is a leader. Someone willing to be the face of that fire they can rally around behind. Bush can't fill that hole. Oh, he has as much as able, but he's not in the Senate. Only so much he can do from another building.
I think Kennedy makes them uncomfortable because he was too much like a 21st Century Republican.
He didn't say anything in support of gay marriage, abortion liberalization, or embryonic stem cell research. He believed in tax cuts. He didn't like corrupt unions. He was willing to stand up to dictators and communists, and even brought the US to the brink of destruction.
Do you remember the post 2000 electionskit, when the real Gore posed in the hottub with a Lieberman look-alike, and a glass of wine..I knew then that Al would NEVER run again..
Very bizarre. And yes, if he wasn't done before that, he most certainly done because of it.
Trust Liberals to be intimately acquainted with the phraseology of Nazism and Communism.
Obviously intentional.
I was going to post my reaction to his use of the "boss" word, but I wasn't sure if it would be seen as an over-reaction on my part.
I hate Biden, so I can't stand anything he says, but I am glad I wasn't the only one that observed the racist slant to his remarks. Maybe it was a word he picked up from KKK Byrd.
I'm trying to pry off the lid from an old can of paint...grrrrrrrrrrr
Anyway, it wasn't explicitly noted but it IS why I took care to note Bayh's exact quote.
Back to trying to access my paint...
Sen. Mitch McConnell speaking right now--
Oh, good. So I haven't missed Boxer.
I was really surprised at Bayh. I am on record saying he was one of the good guys. He always came across as level headed and decent.
Boy was I wrong!
I called his office at:
(202) 224-5623
I continually asked the aide on the phone if Bayh was against all blacks or just black women. The guy stuttered and stammered and kept saying he wasn't racist. I then asked then if he hated all women or just black women.
Most fun. Please give it a try.
still time to make pop-corn!
A little turpentine around the lid might help. I've had that trouble in the past too.
Good catch.
Does anyone know if those wireless headphones work on computers??
It would help me while trying to clean the house and when the hubby is home on call and talking to clients .. good grief he is a loud talker .. I can't hear McConnell
Nope--according to C-span, the list is Byrd, Hagel, Allen, and Boxer.
I think Reid is trying to time Boxer's remarks to later in the afternoon so that she may make the news, live---
According to the political guy on CNN, she is their STAR right now and behind the scenes they are all saying "You go girl!" Blechhhhhhhh
When I heard Kennedy on the radio on the way home using that term a few times, I knew it was intentional. It's an ugly reminder of another time and done deliberately.
I just heard that comment replayed on Rush. UGH!
While I don't know the answer to the above question, it seems to me the Dims have a Twilight-Zone way of communicating between themselves. Here's the proof:
"Dr. Rice speaks fluent Russian. She does NOT speak ONE word of Arabic. I do not know of ONE single Iraqi who speaks Russian..even though Cyrillic writing does look to me a little like Arabic. Therefore I have decided, regretfully, that I must vote against confirming Dr. Rice."
