C-span 2 ^ | May 18, 2005

[badgerbengal]

I wasnt paying attention that each side had 90 minutes. My bad.

[small voice in the wilderness]

I'm talking about the rumors of compromise talks eminating from Warner's office. What we've been talking about here. NOT, repeat, NOT, new news. Unless specter has put on his kilt and volunteered to do the bending.

[Txsleuth]

Mm-hm, he is a cutie!!!

[Howlin]

He wants to be president.

[Redleg Duke]

You wish! More bull from the RATS. All they have are lies.

[Sacajaweau]

btt

[the anti-liberal]

Does Dayton realize we're talking about judicial filibuster?

[Howlin]

I knew that.........as I was looking at it I punched the post button!

[Bungarian]

I thought it was an hour recess? What happened?

[Dad yer funny]

I had to go pick up my daughter , did something happen??

[Howlin]

I just see people talking about it and I wondered who is reporting this on TV, that's all.

[the anti-liberal]

The hour came and went.

[Howlin]

Rumors of war (from us.......LOL).

[Dad yer funny]

but we're still lookin' at next week for the HOT STUFF??

[BlessedByLiberty]

Jumping up and down in agreement!

They can disagree with President Bush, but give him the courtesy to discuss it with him - not with the opposition for a momentary spotlight from the MSM.

We are at war with people who would kill us; who have killed Americans on American soil. Yet these shameless power grubbing Democrats are shameless and despicable in that they would stymie qualified nominees who are destined to uphold the laws that punish our enemies and their accomplices. (rant off)

[AFPhys]

I don't know who is in that "meeting"... but it is a good bet that some or all of these who the DNC suggests calling are there:

Sen. Susan Collins (ME)
Sen. Chuck Hagel (NE)
Sen. Gordon Smith (OR)
Sen. Arlen Specter (PA)
Sen. Richard Lugar (IN)
Sen. Lisa Murkowski (AK)
Senator John Warner

Don't wait. Call your senator immediately - 202-224.3121.

[the anti-liberal]

There's nothing Senatorial about violating Senate rules? Master of the obvious.

[badgerbengal]

I understand the fury this brings out because I feel it too, but putting more Dems into power will not make things better by far. I guess its a catch 22 but everyone has to follow their own heart.

[Txsleuth]

You better strap them on--I think we are gonna be rounding up any REP scoundrels and runnin' them outta town!!!

You with us Cowboy? Cause we aren't kiddin' around!

[Political Junkie Too]

I've done that too! :-)
