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

Posted on 01/30/2006 5:57:36 AM PST by 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...

"Lieberman announced on local CT radio this morning that he will not support the filibuster. Is this news or have we been assuming it?"


I wouldn't assume anything with Liarman.

He was one of the McCain 14, and said he'd not vote no against any judge, except it was an "extreme" issue.

I won't be surprised to see him vote NO on cloture, but my thinking is that he won't want to help Kerry (in the event that Liarman decides to run for POTUS).

Stabenow did not start talking until 12:10 and apparently, based on this thread was still talking at 12:40. Kerry must have had 30 minutes of remarks ready to read. Dems can't even play well with each other, and they always expect that the rules do not apply to themselves.

ROFL! Kerry is such a great time manager...

I love it! Kerry is certainly a fool and has showed it once again in this very embarrassing development. Thank goodness McConnell stuck to his guns and allowed Frenchy to be cut off.

There is an old gal from the Bay,
who now has entered the fray,
after a certain "peace mom"
dropped a political bomb,
and threatened to blow her away!

I was wondering about this, myself - Thomas went through HELL and he is only human just like the rest of us.

Would it not be cool if he could tell us how the whole process impacted him, honestly?

I don't like profanity,

That is all your are going to get from the LLL - they have no idea what civility is.

It is around 25. A great buy if you think Alito gets 60 votes. I am waiting right now.
