Welcome, all you Freepers, to the continuing C-span soap operas about judicial nominations. "The Guiding SEARCHLIGHT, " "As the SENATE Turns, "One NOMINATION to Live" "GERIATRIC Hospital" (for all you Byrd and Lautenberg fans out there). Follow along with us, as the Dems raise the level of histrionics, bloviation, pontification, and all around bad acting to new highs, er, lows...
95% LOL!!
Mitch McConnell said there were 5-6 "queasy" dems who don't like what's happened in the Senate on the radio this morning. FWIW.
The 95% argument again? Aarrrg!
kjam22 <---- hard hard right extremist.. not happy without 100% :)
You need to get doug from upland to write the music!!! LOL
New buzz words...
Hard, hard right extremists.
(Meant to pull Hillary more to the center.)
.
THEY'LL GET UNQUEEEEZZY after this s**t
Hope you're right, but I just don't see it. McCain's going "Big Time". Who cares what his constituents think?
Sigh...work beckons. Will try to check in as possible.
I think the Republicans would end up with a greater "majority" in Congress, but quorum might be hard to meet. I do have a pocket Constitution, but I don't carry it anymore. I have a link to it on my browser if I need the verbatim text.
Now doesn't that sound EXACTLY like what Hillary would say?
And it appears not to be in context as to what is going on.
Don't misunderstand me...I want cloture..but in just listening to the Dems for a few hours, I get the sense that "forcing" them to talk for 50 hours, give or take..will end up hirting them..when you have NOTHING to say...you can pretend for a few minutes, but NOT for 50 hours..
Maybe he was talking about the votes needed? Whatever, he's an idiot.
Carolinamom: There's nothing in the Constitution about 60 votes either.
McCain's problem is that to get elected "big time" he needs votes from people outside of Arizona. And he has to start by getting a lot of republican votes... unless he really thinks an independent can win.... and he doesn't think that.
In answer to everything, the Democrats make me sick! They are vile and souless, I hesitate to call them people! I will go to the wall with anyone seeking to destroy them once and for all. Chuckie, Hildebeast, Bow-Wow, makes no difference to me, they are WRONG WRONG WRONG! I can't believe I am watching this, except that I have Rush to keep me focused!
yeah , I'm trying to work also , we're going away with the kids
