Thanks re: Bolton not being there--- I was looking at the schedule last night and noted that they has blocked out a few hours for that hearing, so I figured maybe they were gonna yell at him some more before they voted...

Amen to that. Several of our U.S. clergy need a SEVERE butt-whipping from the Vatican.

Thread parliamentarian sounds exceedingly boring.
Happy to help, though.

believe this is a Quorum Call... the responses are either "Aye" or "Not Present". Senator Kerry? "Not Present"

Oh, heavens, is anyone watching Harry Reid. He's calling people like me right wing groups. He's got the guy from the filibuster ad with him...you know, the Republican. Uses the word "radical". Reid is absolutely pathetic. What we should be working on is the price of gasoline, what can we do about healthcare. Trying to deflect attention.

To be perfectly honest, my dream job is to work for the Internet Office of the Holy See. If anyone in the Vatican is reading this, I'd still like to do it!

This from a quick Google search:
In the Senate, the Sergeant-at-Arms had a moment in the media spotlight in 1988, when then Senate Majority Leader Robert Byrd (D-WV) made a motion on the Senate floor that Senators absent from the floor be arrested and brought to the chamber. The absentees were deliberately stalling the consideration of campaign finance legislation by preventing a quorum from being achieved. By vote of the Senate, the Sgt.-at-Arms was handed arrest warrants and instructed to find and escort the absentees to the chamber. Senator Robert Packwood (R-OR) was the first "captured," and forcibly brought to the floor by the Sgt.-at-Arms and several of his plainclothes men. Packwood's presence registered a quorum; no other Senators had to be sought.
