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...

Isn't it beautiful that Kerry wanted to speak for another 15 minutes, McConnell denied it, spoke briefly and now nobody is speaking. Ha!!

So Alito is in, the Kos Kidz and DUmmies have been wasting phone calls, and Kerry is a chump.

I would say the entire Democrat Party has become the Chump Party.

It happened when Soros (of moveon.org fame) said something to the effect of "The Democrat Party now belongs to us. We bought and paid for it".

It's almost sad to see the death of a once proud party. I said almost.

I think people need an updated reassurance from you that we have well over 60 votes for cloture.

In what form ;-)

All announced moves so far have either left unchanged past promises, or ADDED to the count of 64.

I think it's still a fair bet that the cloture vote will be called off, "vitiated."

I think there is another picture somewhere where you can see their eeeeeeewwwwww lips touching. Now THAT is PORN

But porn is supposed to excite, not nauseate. I gagged when I saw it.

I had to make up some campaign posters for her.....


"VOTE CINDY, A WOMAN ON THE LEFT THAT'S NOT AFRAID TO SHOW HER COMMUNIST TIES"


"VOTE CINDY, SHE GIVES DICTATORS A THUMBS UP, JUST THINK WHAT SHE'LL DO FOR YOU."


"VOTE CINDY. SHE'S NOT AFRAID TO SLIP A DICTATOR THE TONGUE."

Not that I've heard. Substantively, it's no matter. As a piece of drama, it puts a bit of weight on the "call of cloture, since we know it's going to pass anyway" side of the scale.

I don't know. I would like to see a Pat Caddell come back. I disagree with him, but heck, he's sane.
