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...

"is this the roll call or the cloture vote?"

It's the roll call vote on cloture (i.e. the real thing, not the quorum call)

A thesaurus would not include all the words we'd need to describe Kennedy.

When Mr. P heard Dodd's name called, he hiccupped. Deliberately.

Does anyone know how long they have to vote once the voting begins?

There's no time limit. Cloture votes usually take 15-25 minutes.

The internet cspan feed keeps cutting out for me, but it wouldn't shock me it would certainly make it easier for his friend Oscar Goodman if Ensign was out of the way, wouldn't it?
