Clinton to support Alito filibuster

Good lord, she managed to get it ALL in there, didn't she?

How long did she ramble on? Did she finally hang up, or did he pull the plug? (I would have after the drug thing.)

[Txsleuth]

I have felt that way for a long time...but when Mark got so angry tonight about McCain going to that forum in Davos...and STILL accusing the military of torture..

He just does NOT have a clue how he is coming across...or, more likely, doesn't care....which should be the kiss of death to his POTUS candidacy..

[Howlin]

Of course she should have; I knew the minute she called LKL she had made a HUGE mistake.

But I can see how she was thinking -- after all, she IS Oprah and nobody screws with her, right? :-)

[Txsleuth]

Juan is definitely their "useful idiot" on Fox.

[backtothestreets]

This is advantageous. Clinton isn't just pandering to her base, she's allowed her arrogance to govern her leadership abilities. She obviously thought her stance would rally other Democratic Senators to join her, and the opposite is taking place.

If she ever were a serious candidate for president, a question must be asked. If she could not lead her own party, how could she possibly work with a hostile Congress comprised of Republicans and a sizable number of Democrats to lead an entire nation?

[Txsleuth]

LOL...I usually spend half of the thread in my jammies and robe...

[nutmeg]

ping!

Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my ‘miscellaneous’ ping list.

[Howlin]

If I live to be 100, I'll never understand why they hate this good, decent man so much.

But perhaps I've answered my own question.

[Howlin]

Well, I'm rambling; my grandsons are here and I had just read him "Doctor Dan, The Bandage Man," so my brain was MUSH...........LOL.

[Txsleuth]

Talk about POWER...that is a woman with power...enough that when she turns down the White House when they call...it doesn't affect her career at all..

[Howlin]

Thanks!

It is FUN watching Shrillary dropping acid with the Moveon Birkenstockers in her tattered jeans, then scrambling over to the DLC in her business fatsuit to screech about doubling the military in Iraq.

Little does she know that the security cameras, in the form of the blogosphere, are chronicling her every waddle and beaming it to countless popcorn-munching conservatives.

Americans are NOT happy when judges are not given up/down votes..and are smeared in the process.

Add to that - and when the politicos are so OBVIOUSLY obstructionist. That is indeed what got Lil' Tommy Das-hole voted out of office.

[Howlin]

Not selective memory! Around here we call it 'selective amnesia.'

[Txsleuth]

LOL...I have had my granddaughter all week...my husband took her home tonight...

so I know what you are going through..how old are they?

Bush has been pitting Dems against themselves for years...

Funny, some tried to warn the Washington Democrat elite about him, but in their arrogance they ignored the warnings.

[Howlin]

And this is a perfect example of Dems playing politics instead of basing their opinions on what is best for this nation.

I was just thinking about that when I was watching the Panel on Brit's show; it's not about principle with them; it's about VOTES. Juan even said that now Kerry can say "I stood up against Alito," even though it's a lost cause.

I'll be damned if I'd be in a party that wanted America to lose a war, or hoped the economy would tank, or some other disaster would hit the country, or REQUIRED me to smear a good man just so I could get their votes and stay in power.

[spokeshave]

"Their ultimate goal for the United States is to use our political system against us...but moving up the ladder into more and more powerful positions..."

And don't forget that closet muslim....Senator Osama Obama

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

So do you suppose Soros put the squeeze on Bubba Clinton in Davos (along with Kerry) and Bubba called her to fillibuster because Soros is depositing a few more million into their Swiss account?

That would get my vote. And yes, I think BillyBubba is a big part of this "decision" by Hillary on the move to the left. She doesn't make these kinds of decisions without consulting him.

I think Rush ended it after the drug addict comment.
