They did this stuff as a way of saying the Republicans were wasting everyone's time debating on Bush's judicial nominees. The Republicans would speak on the nominee, and the Democrats would read sob stories from constituents about "my life is going to hell" etc. etc.

Hmmm. Maybe I'll tune in to see Frist. I'm sure he's a lovely man. A good man. But I sure wish he was a little tougher.

Durbin up to correct Specter on misspeaking one line.

Mark Dayton pops up like an insane jack-in-the-box to clarify the record.

They're working out who gets to speak when.

"Are you saying that they are letting them talk about other stuff to kill time for all of them?"

Yes. We're lucky he's not reading from the phone book.

Specter is so NOT in control here!

Our daughter got married in a huge wedding last February 28.

This is a good month for weddings, because except for Valentine's Day, no one gets married in this month. We got good prices and service for flowers, reception hall, catering, etc.

The BAD part on having a wedding in February is that EVERYONE INVITED SHOWS UP!!! $$$$$$$$

Um, did Bill Nelson forget about Breaux's Social Security Commission?

The dems are ignoring it. I heard just a snippet of the Harry and Nancy show from yesterday and the part I did hear was her asserting that the president just wanted to impose a new plan without discussing it, and like you I thought of the commission that has been formed which puts the lie to her rantings.

Specter now referring to Kennedy's "torrid prose" about the memo that was written (not by Gonzales) and he cited yet another memo and Specter is pointing out Judge Gonzales had nothing to do with that memo.
