Thomas ^ | 2-02-05 | Senate

Posted on 02/02/2005 6:33:50 AM PST by OXENinFLA

PROGRAM -- (Senate - February 01, 2005)

Mr. BROWNBACK. Mr. President, tomorrow the Senate will resume consideration of the nomination of Alberto Gonzales to be Attorney General. A number of colleagues spoke on this nomination today, and we expect a full day of debate tomorrow as well. Under the agreement, we will alternate debate in 1-hour blocks throughout the day. Again, I encourage those Members who wish to speak on the Gonzales nomination to contact the chairman and ranking member of the Judiciary Committee as soon as possible.

ORDERS FOR WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 2005 -- (Senate - February 01, 2005) Mr. BROWNBACK. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that when the Senate completes its business today, it adjourn until 9:15 a.m. on Wednesday, February 2. I further ask that following the prayer and pledge, the morning hour be deemed expired, the Journal of proceedings be approved to date, the time for the two leaders be reserved, and at 9:30 a.m. the Senate proceed to executive session and resume consideration of the nomination of Alberto Gonzales to be Attorney General, as provided under the previous order; provided that at 2:30 p.m. Senator Byrd be recognized for up to 1 hour.

I simply cannot fathom the democrats. What could they be thinking. If the man is going to be confirmed why are they making themselves look so meanspirited, and frankly, insane.

Why are we celebrating????????????

Gonzales is anti-gun, pro-abortion, pro-illegal invaders, pro-affirmative action, and an intimate supporter of La Raza (per Michelle Malkin).

THis is just ANOTHER case of George III pandering to Hispanics in hopes of getting Jeb into the White House in 2008.

WOW!! Sen. Mel Martinez just slapped the RATS across their filthy faces!! He just made history as the first Hispanic to speak to the senate house in Spanish! He *itch slapped the rats by speaking directly in Spanish to the Hispanic community and telling them NOT to let those that are opposed to Mr. Gonzales nomination hinder his election to that position because he represented the Hispanic community...the RATS were shaking in their boots! IT WAS MOST EXCELLENT!! KUDOS to Mr. Martinez...I LOVE IT!!

If he runs for anything .. his best shot would be as VP

I doubt this country would vote for him as President anytime soon, even if he is qualified to run for the job

But, then , in reality.he's looking at 2016, and that's a long time away...and it also assumes that the next VP will emulate Cheney..and have NO presidential aspirations..
