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...

The best thing about having the Super Bowl in Detroit is the winning team's fans can torch the town and nobody will notice.

?????

Pittsburgh torch the town? Get a life!

President Nixon nominated a conservative southern jurist, Clement Haynesworth, to the Supreme Court. His nomination was defeated in the Democrat-controlled Senate, with the help of liberal Republicans, by a vote of 55 - 45 on the grounds that as a judge he had made rulings favoring segregation and decisions in which he had a financial interest.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clement_Haynesworth

Nixon then nominated G. Harold Carswell, who fared even worse and was rejected.

Nixon then nominated Harry Blackmun, a lifelong Republican who gave us Roe v. Wade.

WoW! That's pretty rich. The ABA is a bastion of liberalism.

I can listen to Reid. I can even stand watching Lautenberg slip in and out of reality. But, I just can't listen to Kerry's voice. I couldn't help myself. I turned the sound all the way down and am just waiting for his 7 minutes to mercifully end.
