I think that if it does come to the nuclear option..since they know they're gonna lose, the Dems will stage a public temper tantrum..walk off the Senate floor, and refuse to participate in the vote..
When there is a Cardinals game, KMOX carries it and not Rush so I didn't know about this until I saw it here. I am amazed (and sickened)at the preplanning by Hillary! in her run for the WH. If I can't see her jailed, I want her humiliated. Could you stand 4 or 8 years of a Hillary! presidency with BJ back in the WH. Imagine that cackle...NO, NO, NO. I 'm making myself ill. Ignore me.
I hope they do
Agreed!!
Yep, just as I suspicioned---one of those secretive unanimous votes that don't get a floor vote---
As I have mentioned on here several times, I am very worried about those, and that amendment is the best example yet of what can be slipped in on legislation that we the people have no knowledge of---therefore, can't bug our Senators about....
Dang, anything we can do? Ya'll?
Geez ... I was upstairs and I heard Fat mouth Teddy Screaming
I come down to see what it was all about .. and there's Teddy with CHARTS!
Stevens and Teddy seem to be going at it .. l
aughing in the senate
FYI..Liddy Dole just on with Josh Gibson...she FLAT OUT said the GOP will pull the trigger unless the Dems come around..and we ALL know we don't mess around with Liddy..
have ya seen this??

They best .. because all this talk means NOTHING unless they act
I'm TIRED of acts .. I'm TIRED of bones
I WANT MEAT ... I want the Pubbies to grew a spine!
Baucus is going on and on about how it should be all about the Senate as a whole and not just party---then he says that it takes great courage to have principles and stand up to your own party and go against them---he says going to caucus luncheons are easier if you go along with your party, but it takes courage not to in order to hold dear the Senate, yada, yada, yada....
I'm thinking OKAY, be a hero, and announce that you will do what McCain did and go against your stupid party...
But, NO, he says it ONLY takes 6 Senators of the MAJORITY party(stressing the majority part) to be courageous and go along with the way the nominees have been handled for 200 years ( or something to that effect), I stopped listening after he mentioned it was up to the MAJORITY party to change!!!
I just noticed that Wyden and Harkin were the only Senators to vote against Negroponte---
We KNOW why Harkin did---the Nicaragua thing, BUT Kerry voted for him, and wasn't Kerry just as involved as Harkin in that?
Kerry is positioning himself---if he wasn't, he would have voted NO on Negroponte.
Wyden, go figure, he is from Oregon.
Yes he is, the old fool.
He's gonna recycle Biden's hair plugs..
Personally, I hope Kerry does run again, should make for a really fun primary season---
The Swift Boat Vets will have a head start---I want to see them protest in front of the Capitol Building until Kerry signs form #180!!!
I could see Gulf Tonkin, right there with them---LOL
Did anyone else hear the panel on Fox tonight. I think what I heard is that there is a concensus that pubbies are winning, or at least that the dims are afraid they are. Reid is reportedly trying to go around Frist to make a deal on judges to save some face and was told to deal with Frist. If true, I love it.
I was shocked when I heard what Kondrake said about Reid--I can't figure out why HE would be looking for a deal after the Bolton debacle---it looks like to me that dems have the Reps on the defense....
I hope they are right---
Did you see the thread that says that some of Colin Powell's aides are saying the he has been talking to Hagel and Chafee and that Powell won't come out in favor of Bolton like Bush has--
If you read the article, even Powell has no hard evidence that Bolton has done anything to warrant the treatment he is getting---I just think that Powell has a bad case of sour grapes, just like about 20 others that have written "Bush was mean to me", books...LOL
No, I haven't, but I'll go look for it now. I think lots of people tried to give Powell the benefit of the doubt, but in the end he turned out to be, not diplomatic, but a diplomat of the "I want to be liked and admired by the world community (and there is money to be made there as well). Some times one just gets disappointed. But we will soldier on :)
Yep .. I heard it
They want to shut down the senate ... BRING IT ON!
They want the ethics committee to investigate Delay .. BRING IT ON !
They want to Bork Bolton at a time we most need representation at the UN .. BRING IT ON!
