LIVE THREAD: Reid presser. C-span2, 1PM.. followed by Senate session....Frist's comments..
C-span

Posted on 05/16/2005 9:54:06 AM PDT by ken5050

OK, folks..let's se what going to happen today as we move closer to the showdown in the Senate. Live, at 1 PM EST on C-span 2, "Searchlight" Reid is holding a presser to discuss judicial nomination. The Senate then convenes at 2PM, and as Majority Leader, Frist will make the opening statement. Then Reid will speak. Frist as pissed at Reid last week..for announcing a possible compromise on the Senate floor without FIRST telling him of it..and Frist has yet to speak about Reid's comments about FBI files. Should be fireworks..

Also, on a related note...this Sunday on McLauglin, Mort Zuckerman said that Specter would soon retire becuase of health resasons, and Casey would be appointed to the seat. This has staggering implications, IMHO. Your thoughts?

Fox Friends this AM said the First and Reid met for dinner this weekend. Sounds like they didn't stay for brandy and cigars.

Thanks for the heads up, Ken. I didn't think the senate was in session today.

Frist is a gentleman, and I would like to see him be ruthless.

Who is Casey? And, who is next in line for Judiciary Chairmanship?

Freepers, let's pray for Sen. Specter's health. God bless.

Frist is REALLY REALLY REALLY agitated and is REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY getting ready to decide whether he might be ready to possibly do something to move the judicial nominations forward, maybe this week, even, or next, or this month, or at least before or after the summer recess, possibly.

Don't be skeptical. This is it. Frist has an op-ed in USA Today today.
