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

C-span

[BigSkyFreeper]

and that a replacement Supreme must be the same ideologically as the one they're replacing.

Which is also a bunch of nonsense because they're not in a position to pick the nominee.

[Spunky]

I just heard on the radio news Chafee is going to vote no on Alito.

[AliVeritas]

Chaffee, who else.

[OrioleFan]

The pious junior senator from Mass,
Filibustering from Davos with his lass.
He not gonna win,
He just passing wind
Energy crisis averted - we got gas.

LOL! Is it a bad penmanship/posting award?

[mware]

Their presser was suppose to start at 12. By the time Lautenberger has finished with his ahhh and dahhhh it will close to 12:30

[maggief]

Stab-a-cow up.

[Dad yer funny]

[saveliberty]

Yes, it could. Is he voting for Phil E. Buster?

"One of SNL's Greatest skits, involving Will Ferrell (the guy with the cowbell in Ali's picture. It's a running gag....it's a good thing! ;>)"

Ahh, ok. Stopped watching SNL when Joe Piscopo joined the cast.

[Salvation]

LOL!

Michael said well many historians agree it was at least 35 million. She of course changed the subject.

What they will not admit is they KNOW that communism and socialism kiled millions, but that was just the price that had to be paid. They wouldn't care if a few dozen million Americans died in their search for social utopia.

[maggief]

Yeah, let's go with that. :D

ALITO NOMINATION -- (Senate - January 26, 2006)

[Page: S232]

--- Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, earlier today I filed a cloture motion on Judge Alito's nomination in order to bring to close in the not too distant future this outstanding nominee's confirmation process.

The cloture vote is scheduled, as my colleagues know, for 4:30 in the afternoon on Monday. If cloture is invoked--which I believe it will be--we will have a final up-or-down vote on confirmation on Tuesday at 11 o'clock in the morning.

There's a dem speaking now that hasn't missed many lunches :)

In other words, since Sandy Day O'Connor was a dope most of the time, the Supreme who replaces her most likewise be a dope (except, of course, when she voted in favor in Bush in Bush v. Gore).

[Mo1]

Can you spell "frontal lobotomy"?

I have to give the Dems this much credit .. they have some real brass ones to comes out and say the things they do

[Da Mav]

Full of themselves and their bluster
The liberals screamed "Let's filibuster!"
An attack from the left
Of morals bereft
Such tactics we ain't seen since Custer
.
Like birds in the MoveOn fan rotors
They hoped to impress all the voters
But like a rude cur
They revealed that they were
As unprincipled as their promoters
