so , with regards to the filibuster , it looks like the RATS have been reduced to ,...ooops , LIEberman on CSPAN2
Lieberman working with McCain and Nelson.
Reports the Bay Oil indictments that were issued last month.
The rats (and their media bootlickers) are in a fine mess.
I'm now convinced they don't have the votes to overide Frist. So what do they do?
If they refrain from filibustering so that Frist can't call for a rule change...they look like toothless tigers and their drooling base will be enraged.
If they filibuster, Frist will let it go on just long enough to let the public see what they're up to, then he'll play his winning hand on the Byrd Option.
This may go down in the books as THE classic example of a political party that overplayed its hand and got its b*tt handed to it in response. (Funny that the libs in Canada appear to be doing exactly the same thing at exactly the same moment!)
