Can’t wait to hear the tapes of Reid and Blago talking. Hope it is enough to sink Reid once and for all.

Reid is falling all over himself complimenting Burris.
[Reid knows he didn’t have a legal leg to stand on. Now, he is eating crow.]

This is so funny I can’t stand it. Listening now to Durbin and Reid clmbing all over this mess trying to sound as though it’s all normal and above board.

I'm doing what I can, people.
How did this pipsqueak of a dude from that horrible little state (sorry Nevadans) get so much power, exactly?

Reid threatening to bury the appointment in the rules committee now. He has no legal standing to do that either!

of course it did. He’s doing the best he can under very trying circumstances, I tell ya.
And Burris himself says, “I know this is not racial.”
It’s the first thing he said to Reid, don’t you know.

It is pretty funny except for the fact that they really think that they are above the law and our constitution.
Good to see you back btw! Hope your holidays were good.

I can’t wait to see them do this to Caroline Kennedy.

He just said the full Senate will vote on seating Burris...he can’t do this.

Release the Reid wiretaps!
(Quite a different tone of Reid’s presser vs. 0.)

No..but watch him try though. The dems don’t care anything about our constitution. They only reason they can bring this to the floor is if there are questions of eligibility and citizenship. Isn’t that ironic. The dems don’t worry about Obama’s eligibility or citizenship but will use the rule fraudulently to keep someone who is eligible and legally appointed from serving in the Senate...lol
