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...

Maybe Frist is stalling as Ensign is reportedly on his way.That's a legitimate reason. At least if his charter plane is in a holding pattern over RWR International, he'll have plenty of time to shuttle on over to the Capitol.

Is he stalling? Or is he gloating over what he believes is fait accompli?

LOL...window ledges...I never thought that the moonbats could really fly...guess I was wrong.I'd be happy to give them flying lessons.
Give them a good hard shove off that window ledge, and if they learn to fly before they hit the ground, good for them.

I hope he's not stalling because we need one more vote.
That's way to damned close.

Me, too. I like Susan Estrich. Don't agree with her on much, but she's fun. And she smiles, unlike most Dems.

I think the gang of 14 is meeting.
Collins and lieberman were held up at the fema hearing until after 4.
The gang of 14 is still meeting in ben nelson's office. That would be my guess for the delay.
To: fatima
It's called "rubbing it in" or "rubbing salt in the wounds"--
he just said this is a call for "principle, or partisanship"--
bwahahahaha.
To: CAluvdubya
Also, its a bit of "I'm the Leader and you're not", to the Sens from Massachusetts.
