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...

The DEMs can't change the 4:30 and 11:00 times unilaterally. It takes unanimous consent to shift those. Not that they won't shift, but they won't shift "out," that's for sure.

I've got 9 of 11 seasons of M*A*S*H on DVD, as well as the original movie that spawned the TV series on a two-disc Silver Collectors Edition DVD set.

NARAL pretty much pushed out the two biggest Dems who would have beaten Chafee easily. Chafee is NARAL's Senator which makes him way worse than Snowe or Collins who are similar to Chafee in views but aren't owned.

I loved M*A*S*H until Mike Farrell came aboard. It's the first time I've ever rooted for the enemy.

You know, it occurs to me that both right-wing and left-wing bloggers are having an effect on politics. The difference is that we right-wingers are HELPING our party and candidates. We raised a fuss and Miers withdrew, resulting in the excellent Alito nomination. Leftist bloggers then grew angry and have sent their guys over the cliff with this lame and stupid filibuster.

Just as Byrd and the Dakotans are voting for Alito because they represent red states, Liberman is voting against Alito because he represents a VERY blue state.

That's my theory anyway.

Kerry lies and says its a straight-party line vote.
