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...

Just retro-active abortions. No big deal in their opinions.

Frist making good points about how much longer it's taken to get Alito confirmed than it took Clinton's nominees.

Relax and savor the moment. If you REALLY want to have fun, open another tab in your browser and check out the moonbats during the vote. Its more fun that way, if you can stand the smell.

I envy you, darlin...I'm still at work for a few hours more. Thank God I have a job, though! (and a conservative company President and VP!)

I like Susan Estrich.

I adored her on election night coverage on Fox. She was so drunk, I thought she'd fall out of her chair!

Now that's entertainment.

Everything Frist is saying, needs saying... if only for the official record.

Let generations read about the despicable behavior of the democrats.

No vote yet. Frist is using leader time. Vote will be at approximately 4:40 PM EST.

Good thing I'm not a drinking woman. I'd be plastered by now.
