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...
TOPICS: Breaking News; Politics/Elections

8 a.m. would have gotten him on a 9 o'clock flight to DC and he would have arrived by 2 p.m. and 1/2 from airport to the Capital would have put him there in plenty of time to vote. This isn't comforting.
Did you see new video from Al Jazeera???
To: golas1964
Yes, one head on which pushed his car back into the car behind the Senator.

Conrad is a scheming liar, but he's not stupid. He knows what his constituency wants.

I have all 14 of them already on the record, independently in various venues, as against cloture abuse in the Aliton nomination. They are probably hoping for a few minutes of fame for averting yet another potential disaster.
To: mwl1
70%+ of them want BUSH..f'sure.

Probably only 54 get to vote on cloture, after Sen. Ensign's car accident. Still, if the 7 Ds of the Gang of Fourteen hold together and vote for cloture we have at least one more than the 60 votes required to squelch the filibuster.

LOL! Not Jean Francois Forbes Empire and my father was an ambassador Kerry!
Nor was his flatitude from Hyannisport?
And the Beeste didn't go to public school either, but we learned from it takes a village idiot that the root of her inability to get along with others is that she annoyed the neighborhood kids.

Speaking of knowing what his constituents want, I know Landrieu said she'll vote against filibuster, but has she said which way she'll vote? Also, does anyone know what Arkansans are saying now that their two esteemed red state dem. senators have said they will vote no.

Holy Crap! What a piece of work. Over the next 20 years South/Latin America will become just as (if not more) dangerous than the middle east.
To: Chuck54
So Alito is in, the Kos Kidz and DUmmies have been wasting phone calls, and Kerry is a chump.

No someone called off this morning so I had to go in. Perhaps that's why I am confused by the Cloture vote. I figure that the Senator was on his way to the airport, that makes sense. Is there a local office you can call to inquire about his welfare and whereabouts? What is Al Jazeera up to now?
