LIVE SENATE THREAD: C-span 2 - Noon EST; "Suppose the Dems throw a filabuster and NOBODY comes?"

C-span 2

[ken5050]

The Senate meets at noon today, again in Executive Session, for the 3rd day of debate on the nomination of Samuel Alito to SCOTUS. Not sure, what, if anything, will happen today..Will there be a filabuster?..will anyone show up..might be work while checking out the beginning of the session, to get the lay of the land....

[AliVeritas]

Someone didn't listen to this...

[Txsleuth]

I bet his wife wasn't very happy about his rushing back for this lose mission....SHE knows better than most what a loser this guy is, I am sure..

[A Citizen Reporter]

Imagine the fuel that he used up to jet back here. I wonder if he'll be going back over the weekend?

IIRC, I don't think Davos will be over till next week.

[Howlin]

Why ARE his lips white?

[AliVeritas]

Hey, he never stole again right? The taxpayer saved money too.

[jennyjenny]

Interesting Kerry is telling a story about a young kid trying to get away but gets shot.

[Dad yer funny]

you got me laughin' , btw

... his staff was busy with this [back at the office]

.... while ol' Lurch was doin' the Swiss swish

[newnhdad]

Now Machine Gun Sammy will kill all 15 yo kids by shooting them in the back of the head.

[Preachin']

I'm not watching, but I hope he (Kerry) goes for hours.

When he speaks it's the American people can't help but disagree with him.

That man has absolutely NO personality.

It just trips me out.

He seems more like a Saturday Nite live political satire than he does a real US Senator.

[Semper Paratus]

So if Hillary is too right-wing for the 'rat activists and Kerry keeps showing his doofus credentials then who is the current 'rat front-runner?

[Miss Marple]

Well, concerned seemed to be the word of the week, so Kerry used it twice in one sentence!

Mainstream Americans? Now what is he yammering about?

He keeps throwing out all of these court cases and seems to think that he is making some sort of a point, but I think he sounds like a nut case.

[newnhdad]

they were up against the wall when they sprayed his tan on..

[Txsleuth]

He is talking about a boy getting shot in the back, huh??

What about the Vietnamese boy HE shot in the back...and the villages of innocent people he burned down???

[p23185]

synopsis--Don't vote for Alito he's the BOOGEYMAN!!!!

Yea - Err Amerika is telling all their rabid listeners that "if Alito is confirmed, the Grand Experiment called Amerika is lost forever. Alito will change this country into an a facist state, and GWB almost has us there today".

[Mo1]

"Aren't we going to be concerned that he is less concerned than those of the same stripe?"

I think he confused himself when he said that

Is he saying that the police should let criminals escape ??

[newnhdad]

here we go. strip searching again.

[Peach]

Chapped from licking them every five seconds.

[Howlin]

Or up Ted Kennedy's butt.

[Lovergirl]

LOL.You are right. He's such a fool.

[nina0113]

What seats are up for grabs in 2006 for the senate???

The six we have the best chance at are Nelson- FL, Bingaman-NM, Conrad-ND, Cantwell-WA, Sarbanes-MD, and Dayton-MN. Nelson, Bingaman and Conrad are in Red states, Cantwell is broke (lost all her personal $$ in the dot-bomb) and Sarbanes & Dayton are retiring.
