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 was thinking more along the lines of a Klan meeting............
Here is Mr. Salazar.
this is giving the iraqis a perfect opportunity to see what kind of morons NOT to ever vote for.
*smile*
Time for an outdoor potty break for my Yorkis.........they're begging! Back later.
*grin*
They were calling him another Zell ... *L*
Hilarious that the Dems brag about taking Colorado, and they got a Conservative Democrat.
You are another FReeper who I have respected in the past and have gone out of my way to be polite to. Why the personal attacks? If you consider an absolutionist view of the Constitution to be "kook fringe", perhaps you don't belong on a web site which lists restoring the Constitution as it's main objective.
LOL .. yea, they really are mad at him .. I got a good chuckle from reading it all
BTW .. With Sheet's speech .. did they put only 3 or 4 words on each page ???
I had the headphones on while doing house work and all I kept hearing was the turning of pages ... ALOT
Well .. Gotta hit the store real quick .. I'll BRB
Funny you should mention the Federalist Papers, as they explain the founders' intent of the 2nd Amendment. I strongly suggest reading them.
These jerks are just insufferable..8 hours of debate tomorrow? Torture, torture, torture...
Not an attack. I just don't see how you can sit there and tell those who are in this thread that the 2nd Amendment has nothing to do with hunting. You take away guns, then what are you going to hunt with, aside from the bow and arrow, but then again, you'd limit yourself to big game like Elk and Deer.
I have.
Perhaps we are misundertanding each other. The point I was trying to make is that the reason the founders enumerated the RKBA had nothing to do with hunting or self-defense from neighbors. The fact that one is able to hunt is a nice side effect of the RKBA though.
Leaky up
LOL
I think the Bybee Memo is the so-called "torture memo" Sheets was getting to earlier.
Crybaby Leaky upset about attacks to fellow Senators.
