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...

He's saying he only had five minutes?
He should speak to the senator on HIS SIDE who was in charge of scheduling face time, huh?

Will do.
Dodd talking about rushing the nomination through? This nomination took about 30 days longer than Clinton's nominations.

Granted it would stop the pandering to the likes of Move-on, but then would it really? Does anyone thing the State Legislature in California would send anyone better than Boxer or Feinstein to DC to represent the State of California? and what about Mass... what kind of candidate would they send to DC -- still another Kerry or Kennedy? or would the corruption just drop down to the state levels in order to get the legislatures you want in order to get the Senators you want?
The way I see it the system is definitely broken but everytime someone messes with it we get more broken china, not less.
To: Howlin
He's spending five minutes complaining about only getting five minutes.

..thinks this is a photo-op for SOTU address. He's alarmed. He's disturbed. And something else. I forget.
To: CFC__VRWC
Yes, the Gang of 14 is cutting our way, so far. I don't see how they could filibuster Luttig or McConnell now that they blessed Alito. They're from the same mold.

Reuters reports, "A conservative federal appeals judge since 1990, Alito would replace the more moderate Justice Sandra Day O'Connor."
Would they use the language of "conservative" and "moderate" if the candidate were "properly" disposed toward the proponents of safe and legal baby killing? I don't think so.

Yes, she has shoulder-length blond hair (not light blond, medium blond).
