Ahhh, now Rubio is up. Okay, fellow older freepers, :), I signed up for Twitter and taught myself how in the last hour so I could Tweet my senators to tell them to get their backsides over to the senate floor. Challenging freepers who don’t mind signing up for Twitter to do it and tweet your conservative senators to get over there and help out.

"Behind the Violence, Says Jane Alpert, Was Sex"

--November 09, 1981--
"The leaders of the Weather Underground, she believes, followed a similar pattern of constantly shifting sexual alliances..."

"He [Bill Ayers] also writes about the Weathermen's sexual experimentation as they tried to 'smash monogamy.' The Weathermen were 'an army of lovers,' he says, and describes having had different sexual partners, including his best male friend."

"...the Weathermen, when not engaged in group sex, committed such revolutionary acts as parading with a Viet Cong flag through a local park on Independence Day and spray-painting the walls of a high school with the slogans, "Off the Pigs," "Viet Cong Will Win," and "F#$k U.S. Imperialism."..."

"What happens next bears watching closely, as does the response of the president, ex-Speaker Pelosi, and others on the left.  Encouraged by leftists in the Democratic Party and funded by left-leaning nonprofit organizations and celebrity contributors, Occupy Wall Street may in time morph into something resembling the radical factions of the late 1960s and 1970s."

Though Rubio could stand all night and it wouldn’t begin to undo the harm he’s doing with amnesty.

[y2gordo]

So does Senator Paul have to remain standing while others are speaking? (I believe that was the rule in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.)

My Gosh. This is history in the making. I am so inspired. Can you tune in Cspan. I am now recording. I sat spell bound by Senator Cruz. Now Rubio is on. This is about LIBERTY. Tune in . quit watching crap. This is unbelievable. Obama is looking real bad now. These great TEA PARTY men are now taking over the republican party. The Karl Rove— Bushies are now history. America is inspired to see fighting for the constitution and LIBERTY. Wake up freepers!!

[PennsylvaniaMom]

I’m so pi&&ed at Toomey. He had about three minutes of “face time” asking Paul a question hours ago. Why didnt he come back? Indigestion? Anyone who abandoned Paul to “schmooze” w/Soetaro should be primaried. Honest. No breaking of ranks. Thi issue is too important.

[Jane Long]

Noel Sheppard just tweeted that...

Insiders tell me Eric Holder has been ordered to White House for opinion on legality of drone strike on Capitol.

Wonder if this is true.

[HawkHogan]

Rubio quoted Jay Z and Wiz Khalifa... so he scored some points with the kids!

[RightWingMama]

All they wanted was a response. What the President got was the future leaders of this country on national TV. I bet he’s pooping bricks.

[Girlene]

Thanks, Marcella.

Rubio up and Re-explaining why Paul is doing this filibuster. Quotes the Godfather, Paul made “ an offer they can’t refuse”, and yet they refused. Rubio says, Imagine if this was about Bush? It would be totally different, except Paul would still be filibustering.

Quotes from The Godfather again....a quote that never made it into the movie. “A lawyer with his briefcase can steal more than a hundred men with guns”....says I don’t know what that has to do with anything here, but I thought it was a really good quote. lol, Rubio is so cute.

lol - another quote from The Godfather.

[yoe]

I may have to join twitter.....dang....I am standing with Rand and Standing with Cruz...finally the issue about our Constitution and Barack Hussein Obama and his anti-American army....Americans first. The United States Constitution is still the governing document in the USA....why do these elected disregard that? Because we have let them......Make this the end of Political Correctness and the rise of The American Constitution AGAIN.

[goodnesswins]

Sen McConnell on the floor now!!! per Twitter ohn r stanton ‏@dcbigjohn McConnell is on the floor, talking to staff. The establishment is officially on board with Rand Paul

[joseph20]

Go Rand Go!

[KansasGirl]

Here’s John Thune.

[MediaMole]

“The fifth amendment is not optional,” Sen. Rand Paul. (...and all real Americans.)

[9YearLurker]

While he’s flooding the kids’ country with government-dependent liberal voters!

[morphing libertarian]

He sure has his finger on the pulse. I know a lot of youngsters who watch filibusters on C-SPAN

[yoe]

I am truly encouraged by the lack of "my party v your party" this is America undivided....the Constitution is taking center stage, the law of the land - these young me are the first statesmen I have heard in ages.

This president has tried to scare via lies to get his way regardless of Constitutional Law...Drones has become the catalyst to show how tyrannical Obama and Holder are.

[exit82]

John Thune of South Dakota up now. What the President got was the future leaders of this country on national TV

Just had a similar thought.

Maybe this will be a seminal event to get an opposition mounted against Benito Obama.

This is our country. Not his.

IIRC Toomey was one of those at the WH dinner. Don’t automatically come down on ALL of them. It’s quite possible Toomey and Ayote, and perhaps others, went along to keep McCain and Grahamnesty from giving away the country there. As Reagan said, “Trust but verify.” And maybe some of them will show up on the overnight tag teams.
