Give Rush Time on Senate Floor
Me | Oct. 2, 2007 | RetSignman

Posted on 10/02/2007 12:31:22 PM PDT by RetSignman

I think someone in the Republican Party should invite Rush to speak on the Senate floor to reply to the outrageous lies perpetrated by members of the democratic party.

The lying statements of Reid and others are now on public record and Rush deserves to have HIS rebuttal on record.

I, for one, am going to write to as many Senate Republicans as possible to petition them to invite Rush to appear.

I invite other FReepers to do the same, maybe we can get at least one of them to grow a spine and do what's right.

Get a Senator to read his transcript into the Congressional Record. Let the Phony Patriot object.

Hope that you can find enough Republicans who have the balls to even make a statement regarding this matter. They are very quiet. Like a GOP ghosttown.

Rush on the senate floor would be priceless.

He needs to for the sole fact that the statements by the Dems about him go into permanent historical record, while his counter arguments on the radio don’t.

Rush is an informative entertainer. Ask him. What could he accomplish in DC?

Yeah but the MoveOns would demand equal time and get it.

I think Rush would be absolutely tickled at the thought but he’d tell us “Bad idea”. That Rush is a sly old dog on political strategy.

EXACTLY RIGHT!! If they can invite Michael J. Fox, Rush should be given the same opportunity.

I’d rather see all mention of it stricken from the records, and new rules forbidding all senators and congresspersons from wasting the taxpayers’ time & money on this crap.

Where the heck is the GOP? So far, I have only heard outrage by Bill O., Laura I. (his Factor guest), Mark L. and Annie C. (guest on Fox & Friends)...not a peep out of the Panel on Brit’s show last night.

The Rules: No one speaks in the Senate who isn’t a Senator, or the roll call clerk, who only speaks through a microphone during a roll call vote, or on rare occasions the vice president. Former Senators are allowed on the floor as a courtesy, but may not speak. Occasionally someone they want to honor is allowed on the floor, but may not speak. If you doubt me, please identify for me the last person who wasn’t a senator who spoke on the floor. When the President or a dignitary is invited to address Congress, such as a foreign head of state, he or she speaks to a joint session in the House chamber.

I’d like to see this done too. The liberals need to be held accountable for their smearing of this true patriot!

Good idea but does anybody ever speak on the floor except Senators?

It’s a good idea, but I don’t think Rush is a real public person. I’m not sure he’d be comfortable in that setting. I could be wrong, of course.

That's the best idea. I don't think non-congresscritters are allowed time on the floor, I think they would have to hold hearings which I'm sure the DUmmies would block.
