LIVE THREAD: Senate Democrats fake filibuster of Samuel Alito - C-span 2 10:00am EST

C-span

[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...

[Who is John Galt?]

I don't want to dignify anything the Dems do or say...

Actually...CRAP!!!!

I've been working on the septic system, Murphy's Law just kicked in, snd the sh!t literally just hit the fan - I've got 'Mohamed Atta' all over the place!!!

Sorry - I'll get back to you - after I wipe all of the 'Mohamed Atta' off the floor!

;>)

This guy up there now isn't even try to hide the fact that it's all about abortion, or more accurately, "the right to kill defenseless babies".

These people are truely sick and twisted.

[MNJohnnie]

We had our chance in 2004, and

Just.....amazing. Go out there and spew nonsense and slander and NOTHING but the next election to hope for. What a corrupt little cligue they got going there.

[Arizona Carolyn]

I wish they would double the size of justice and really clean up DC.

[Democratshavenobrains]

The DUmmies just keep coming up with more insane theories when their less insane ones fail.

[Howlin]

:-)

[frankiep]

Again,

Repealing the Seventeenth Amendment would go a LONG way towards cleaning up DC.

[beckysueb]

DU back up. Have fun?

Its still giving me the same message.

[STARWISE]

They knew they couldn't win, and didn't, so now it's "Slime Time" for the next hour or so, with Biden literally bringing up the rear. What filthy people. Baucus pressing about Alito's tax returns, inferring improprieties??? That would've been vetted before he was nominated, for goodness sakes! I PRAY Mrs. Alito is ensconced right next to Laura Bush tomorrow night... let it be, let it be.

Now that they've been truly and publicly marginalized, in addition to NSA spying, I could see NAwlins coming back on their radar screen, as it's still stewing with miserable people, fingerpointing and screeching mimi's crying about what they didn't get and don't have ..just their brand of constituency. Of course, there's still Iraq, Abramoff, and ..oh yeah .. the continuing movement to frogmarch Rove and impeach the President.

We gotta get primed for the 2006 elections and keep this puppy as our inspiration.

It IS a great day to be a Republican! God bless America.

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

Gosh, that was a great movie...It's what I thought of when the DUmmies wanted to "take it to the streets."

[Raebie]

I'm in, but all the threads are locked.

Glad to be here, MOgirl

[JRochelle]

I saw this over at Kos

Hi I'm a democratic senator, kick me!

LOL

[small voice in the wilderness]

OHGAWD, Dodd is up. Explaining his vote. Does he know no one cares? His seat is safe. He isn't threatened by constituents. Just get off the stage. Have a sandwich.

[BlessedByLiberty]

Please ping me if you do!

Thanks!

I love the Cracker Barrel's food.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Senator Dodd is ranting now. Quick, someone throw him a waitress.
