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 moonbats will exact vengeance on the DLC Dems... they want blood for this defeat. In their eyes, Alito should have been filibustered -- no questions asked.
They are an arrogant people.

DeMint is sticking the WOOD to the Democrats. Good for him. He's my Senator and we like him much better than Lindsey.

So what is this? More speeches? Why is DeMint taking time to do this? I am baffled.

I thought this made some sense when cloture looked close, but a loss of this magnitude is a disaster, it just smooths the way for the next appointment. I know Kerry isn't the sharpest knife in the draw, but this was really stupid.Kerry may very well have just dropped the nuke on his own side. Will anyone take the Dims seriously the next time they scream "filibuster"? Their mighty weapon turns out to be - a straw for shooting spitballs.

Yup, you all came together, pulled all your strings, shot your entire wad - and you got about ONE-THIRD of the Senate to go along with you. One quarter of the Senate - but hey, they got over HALF of the DEMs. That's winning, isn't it?

Did you hear Rush this morning, the whole call from Davos stunt was because he got ticked off that Al Gore was getting so much attention last week with his move-on speech.
