Fox showed the video of him releasing the peace dove and the dove flew back into his residence. LMAO!!

Rush was talking about that yesterday and I thought he was just kidding around.

Much as I hate to admit it, Specter has done a great job right here, defending Gonzales.

What the heck is going on - I just got home and turned on cspan and here's specter drolling on. Has there been some sort of dust-up this afternoon? I was reading the thread around noon and the usual suspects were being their usual selves, I thought this thing would be voted on today. Has that changed?

Kennedy was pretty vile.

And yes, it's going on into the night and maybe a vote tomorrow.

Specter has done a good job, IMO.

Why is specter bloviating? He sure is boring. White noise is more intriguing.

Pelosi insults the President that he cannot speak. Mark Dayton certainly takes that cake.

Can you believe we keep giving these people raises? I am disgusted with these buffoons. Washington has to be the most egocentric town in the world. I was in DC all last week - kept hoping I'd run into that twit, Boxer.

I was so glad to get home last Friday.
