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...

They'll get plenty of BLOW BACK from that large Italian community in NJ. Those Italians will probably NEVER vote dem again.

[AliVeritas]

Check this out:

Right now on CSPAN2 in NYC, they have a guy preaching from a mosque instead of what should be on... they do it every weekend also. Saturday it was inflammatory. Who all should I call?

[pookie18]

In earlier polls Kean was leading, but in the last couple the detestable Menendez was ahead (I believe that they were different polling orgs.).

[Lovergirl]

Is this the filibuster? I just took a nap during Kerry talking. I might have to take another one. :)

[beyond the sea]

Her reasoning...???????????????????/

[Dad yer funny]

like the oldfashioned filibusters

... when sometimes they'd read anything

[BreitbartSentMe]

Uh-oh - border buster!!

I don't know why Rush is saying that that the Dem's have 35 votes for cloture. The official site that's tracking it only has 20 names that have committed to voting NO on cloture. Even with Ensign not being able to vote, they still need 20 more NO votes on cloture, I believe. Why are they already celebrating??

[Dad yer funny]

oh , Lousenberg ,

[fatima]

He was so boring.

[maica]

Call your cable provider.

[Semper Paratus]

He should try out for the part of Howard Beale when they re-film Network.

[Bahbah]

Lautenberg up. My sense, he will vote no, based on his opening.

[pillut48]

Harry says President Bush needs to come clean about Jack Abramhoff--watch out, Harry!!

[Mo1]

Lautenberg up now

[pillut48]

We thought that about Robert Byrd, and he surprised the heck out of us, didn't he?

[fatima]

Lautenberg-He is up-yes or no?

[defconw]

OMG! What an idiot Reid is. What was that? It made so little sense. I can't wait to get the transcript. It's not very often I sit with my mouth wide open gazing at the screen. That was just wow!

[Dad yer funny]

I'm glad the InsaneLeft is cheering these idiots

[BigSkyFreeper]

If it's the Zogby poll, throw it out. Disregard it. It's garbage. Beyond that, Zogby is wrong 99.9% of the time.

[Bahbah]

We thought that about Robert Byrd, and he surprised the heck out of us, didn't he

Yes, but I'm sticking with my prediction.
