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...

checking in, did I miss anything?
the filibuster still is 5 or 6 votes short I hope...
cluture vote still scheduled for 430pm EST? You are right on time. No big events today, biggest being Chaffee announced voting NAY to the nominee.
I count well over 60 in favor of cloture, and yes, the cloture vote starts at 4:30.

Geez, I had to invoke the "sound modulator" thingie on the tv set since he's screaming.

Bwahahaha, Kennedy says that Americans are so busy whining and worrying about Iraq that they haven't had time to focus on the issue of Alito.

I believe he was in Vietnam. He should have told somebody. It would have been a great campaign issue but I'm sure he's too humble to ever use it as a cheap election ploy. /extreme sarcasm
As much as I try, whenever I think of disadvantaged people I can't force myself to think of Kennedy or Kerry.

It might be fun to listen to the criminal as he fights to extend his time, as he will no doubt have to be graveled down!

Nice to hear Teddy praise Republican Abe Lincoln.
He's about to lose it I think.
