C-span

[ken5050]

Good morning once again, all you fellow political junkies. Put on a fresh pot of coffee, put the sticky buns in the oven, put a fresh battery in the remote control, and join us for the latest episode of the world's greatest daytime soap opera, "As the Democrats Bloviate." Yup, once again, it's that time...

Well Casey is not the answer, but like I said cost us a judge. Have it your way. I don't have to live in PA anymore.

Yes, I've written to him, to Kenny Mehlman and I've returned more than a few postage paid fundraising envelopes with explicit messages.

I tend to be very vocal, so that the party takes the right message from Ricky's impending defeat.

[loveliberty2]

Hatch has made excellent points, most especially the one emphasizing that the Constitution is the People's Constitution, and, by its own provision, amendable only by their action, through the amendment process that requires Congressional action, not the unelected Judicial branch.

[Conservative Goddess]

I've faxed, e-mailed, called, screamed.......

Unless he's deaf, dumb and blind.......he can't miss my messages.

[Conservative Goddess]

LOL. And you know my heart? I don't think so.

Dismissed.

[Mo1]

Is Hatch slapping Hellary now??

[defconw]

My guess is you're not his only constituent, just a vocal critic. You catch more flies with honey.

[retrokitten]

Schumer

[Mo1]

LOL. And you know my heart? I don't think so.

Never claimed to

But being from PA .. I do see the PA Boards :0)

[defconw]

I love Hatch! He has such a lovely way of slapping people!

[kjam22]

Yeah..... Hatch is generally pretty good....

[JerseyDvl]

These DU threads are too fun and sure can pick up one's spirits. I especially liked this response from someone standing on the bridge ready to jump...ROFLMAO at these losers:

Who are they? Who are the weasels? The Democratic Party traitors? We need to find out who these f****rs are and kick them out of our party. IT'S OUR PARTY!!!! If they don't get that, they need to f***ing go. No more money to the DNC. I love Howie, but not now, not ever till they find candidates to put up against these people in primaries and fund their campaigns. No more money for Lieberman, Nelson, and whoever else did this s**t. My money and support from now on goes to individual candidates that have proven themselves worthy of the D in front of their name. Gawd I'm so f***ing sick over this garbage.

[Clump]

What would you think if Scarborough joined the race? I am just curious.

[Mo1]

Thanks .. I wasn't sure which Senator he meant


Dang .. I need to head out again

[ezed72]

Hatch is speaking like Santorum used to....

[puroresu]

Shakespeare wrote a play about Schumer. "Much Ado About Nothing".

[Bahbah]

I think it is a good idea for we freepers to read comments like those on DU today....because SOMETIMES...we start sounding a lot like that

I'm glad you pointed that out, sleuth. I have had the same thought and try to be very careful in my comments as a result.
