NOW Applauds Kerry and Kennedy for Leading Filibuster,
Calls on Women's Rights Supporters in Senate to Join Effort
January 27, 2006
"NOW applauds Senators John Kerry and Ted Kennedy for taking the lead in launching a filibuster of Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito," said NOW President Kim Gandy. "We call on all women's rights supporters in the Senate to join this important effort."
A cloture vote to end debate is scheduled for Monday, Jan. 30, at 4:30 pm. Several senators have announced their support of the filibuster, and others privately indicated their willingness to join Kerry and Kennedy, but now they must do so publicly.
"We need an extended debate on this nomination, so that the public sees clearly what is at stake if Alito is confirmed," said Gandy. "Women and men from across the country have spent the last month calling, writing and visiting their senators to get the message across that Alito is the wrong judge at the wrong time for women and this nation."
Today, NOW called on its supporters once again to phone those senators who profess support for women's rights, civil rights and liberties, and the separation of powers, urging them to unite in a filibuster of Alito.
"This nominee is opposed to women's rights on every count," Gandy said. "His record is 20 years long. He was the architect of a plan to overturn Roe v. Wade. He has repeatedly ignored privacy rights. He made it infinitely harder to bring claims of sex discrimination and sexual harassment. There is nothing on his resume or in his numerous opinions suggesting that he would support our fundamental rights."
Gandy concluded: "The filibuster is our only option at this point, and it is every senator's right to use it. Shrinking from a fight will only weaken us for the next one. Your silence will not protect us.""""
Yes your royal Lurchieness...your wish is our command.
Let the royal decree go forth this day from the snow covered heights.....for today we shout it with a mighty roar.....in the name of his royal hineyness Sir Lurch-a-lot we cry out...'FILIBUSTER'..... 'FILIBUSTER'.....
Thumbsucking gigolo bump
Great comments from the windsurfer dudes. They shed light on an aspect of Kerry's wussiness that I otherwise wouldn't have been aware of.
Your graphics work and editing is excellent! You should start a magazine. I know I'd subscribe.
Heard this on the news last night. Astounding. Here ole sKerry who is scary skiing down the ritzy slopes of Davos calling for a filibuster by his demoncRATS in the States. What's wrong with this picture besides the ridiculous?

<< BROKAW: You know, somebody's analyzed the president's military aptitude tests and yours and they concluded that President Bush has a higher IQ than you do, senator .... >>
Hmmm ... Well I'll be darned. Poor dumb klutz earned better grades at Yale, too - and a Harvard MBA.
And a contemporaneous Good Conduct Discharge.
And achieved the rank of 'Commander-In-Chief.'
Guess the military, after all, knew what it was about?
But it ain't all roses for the poor feller.
Can't snowboard, windsurf USS Ronald Reagan-sized center-board yachts or play rent boy to and ride the 500-gallons-per-hour gas-guzzler Gulfstreams of other men's wives - though.
[Must be a bit of a worry?]
I though the stupid voters in Mass. elected this arrogant a**hole to work for them in Washington not to be on vacation 364 day a year. Well I gues you get what you voted for.
According to expert windsurfer, Paul Kotik:
Kerry's wussy rig is what you use when you must be seen to be windsurfing.
Kerry (the wus) is a showman, nothing more.
I guess if HELLary is joining Jean le Kerry in le filibuster from la Suisse, she will discover some long lost French relatives in her family tree. Cheese eating surrender monkeys?
