C-span 2 ^ | May 18, 2005

[Sacajaweau]

Bwahahahahahaha...He could care less. It was probably the plan all along. What came first, the chicken or the egg?

[Licensed-To-Carry]

Ping, to find my place.

[ken5050]

You assessment is correct, but it'salmost moot..why agree to it, and have it pop up in a few months when Rehnquist retires..Resolve it now..

[Bahbah]

Someone get Arlen a handkerchief.

[prairiebreeze]

Yeah, I wanna see a picture too.

[jackbill]

Wouldn't it be nice if Specter could learn how to say Priscilla Owen's name?

She's not Priscilla Owens, Arlen. And Estrada is not Migwell.

[shellshocked]

"It will come, though, at long last."

Maybe. Somehow I smell a "compromise".

[Pukin Dog]

LOL

[GB]

Absolutely. I know everyone is impatient and again, this crap has gone on WAY too long, but people need to calm down and understand why all I's must be dotted and T's crossed before Frist pulls the trigger on this.

[Fudd Fan]

WHEW! Uh-oh... Leaky's up

[Soul Seeker]

had Owens come here at any other time she would have had a voice vote or unanimous vote. Supports her nomination.

[maggief]

My mind a fascinating place? ... that's very generous of you.
ROFL

[ken5050]

Hey...MY THREAD, play nice please.....Josh.. I love your passion dude, but keep it civil..

[Carolinamom]

OMG 39 minutes for the meanest man in the Senate, Leahy. (source: Byron York in NR)

[cotton1706]

Yup, Mr. Scrapy Voice, whup whup.

[gingersnaps]

The demoncrats are terrified of Owens. She was a ....gasp!....Sunday school teacher! Hissssssssss.

Yet for Dims it's wonderful and laudatory that Jimmy Carter is a Sunday school teacher.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal thinks it's swell that Harry Reid is a Sunday school teacher.

And NewsWeak slobbers over the warm and cuddly image of Hillary as a Sunday school teacher back in ol' Arkansaw.

[LisaFab]

Right. I think as someone said earlier that Frist let him make his 'moderate' speech in exchange for a commitment on his vote.

Leahy up talking about compromise. Thanks Arlen.

[GRRRRR]

I think Senator FRIST should start his own REAL FILIBUSTER, just like the good old days...start reading the Constitution and not yield the floor then move on to the Declaration of Aorbroth(sp), Magna Carta et al...all the great documents of Liberty in Western Civ.

It's time to educkate the American People on what a REAL FILIBUSTER looks and sounds like...

[MamaLucci]

Now, there's the kiss of death........Leahy commending Specter's comments.

[Pukin Dog]

Attentive Freepers saw a photo of me in my flight gear, some months ago. There will not be a repeat performance.
