LIVE THREAD: Senate Democrats fake filibuster of Samuel Alito - C-span 2 10:00am EST

C-span

[ken5050]

Good Monday morning, fellow Freeper political junkies. One of the more ridiculous episodes of political theater is about to play itself out on the Senate floor, as the John Kerry-led democrats mount an exercise in political futility which will further expose their total irrelevance..So join us today, or drop in on occasion, for the festivities...

[maica]

World Can't Wait (Mao Lovers) releases list of cities it will protest in on Jan 31st!

%%%%%%

I just hope that tomorrow night the media don't give equal time to inside the Capitol and outside the Capitol (in the interest of "fairness.")

It was mentioned by the announcer on C-span a while back..

Oh Geez ... get over it Kerry

Meirs withdrew her name ... not the President

[Buck W.]

"If you can stand it..Lautenberg and Menendez are holding a joint presser at noon to announce their votes.."

My initial reaction is, "so what?". But with the large segment of the NJ population of Italian descent, the senators might surprise.

[NautiNurse]

Kerry's white lips are glowing again today.

I loved M*A*S*H until Mike Farrell came aboard.

I detest him for his left-wing extremism. He comes across as a frothing lunatic in interviews--completely irrational.

[Clump]

Care to take a guess at how the 2 NJ senators vote? I really have no idea. I could make arguments either way, but I would not bet money on this one.

[TomGuy]

Kerry:

Poor Harriet.


Kerry is doing like Kennedy -- blaming all the ills of America on Alito.

Senators haven't had enough time to debate.

[Well, Senator, if they would get to the floor, they could talk, but many didn't even show up last week when they had the time allocated.]

I don't like profanity, but that's just funny.

[Carolinamom]

Sun on the ski slopes or pancake makeup? Who knows? Who cares? He's color coordinated w/the background....wish he'd just fade away and disappear.

[E.C.I.]

You are not really an obstructionist if you can't really stop anything. So you really are more like wannabe obstructionists.

[SouthTexas]

Thanks for all the updates, but if Kennedy is done, things should quiet down.

A woman I knew was actually going to DO the butterfly thing, till her future (now ex-) mother-in-law pointed out that for a November wedding, chances are they would all be dead when the guests opened the boxes, and wouldn't fly very well at all.

[maggief]

LOLOLOL!

[Mo1]

is this another speech for the Loons .. just like Kennedy's

[Gondring]

Chafee Statement on Judge Samuel Alito: “Judge Alito has outstanding legal credentials and an inspiring life story. However, I am greatly concerned about his philosophy on some important constitutional issues. In particular I carefully examined his record on Executive Power, women’s reproductive freedoms and the commerce clause of Article one, Section Eight of the Constitution. . . I am a pro-choice, pro-environment, pro-Bill of Rights Republican and I will be voting against this nomination.” (1/30/06)

LOL! Great cartoon.

Kerry's white lips are glowing again today.

I just noticed that...he looks like a kid at the beach after Mommy slathered him up; although he's doing his best to get rid of it - doing that "old lady tongue thing" again...
