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.

One need to look no farther than that to see why the democrats have no credibility.

Very Good Point!

A smile break: Just hours after Islamic militants in Iraq threatened to behead a kidnapped U.S. soldier doll, the camouflaged action figure was rescued in a daring nighttime operation by a toy George W. Bush action figure.

I felt like I was listening to a 60s speech by the radical left.

That's because many of the radicals from the 60's are now professors at colleges across the country

I have no doubt that speech Durbin read was written by one of his staffers

It had all the talking points from the loony left sites

Oh lovely .. Leaky is up speaking now

It has become obvious that, to stretch this out so the vote can't be taken until tomorrow, they have to repeat themselves and each other over and over. If they can find and Executive Order authorizing torture, fine. Otherwise, shut up.

Here's an interesting tidbit on the UN:Evidence has been presented to the United Nations in New York that Chief Prosecutor Carla Del Ponte may have knowingly submitted forged documents to the UN tribunal in order to obtain the indictment of Croat General Ante Gotovina, accused of war crimes against Serb civilians....

I heard Kennedy comment on this. Something about how Gonzolas lied about killing a girl on Martha's Vineyard and he would be unfit to represent the people.
