I wish someone would ask what DHS plans to do with all those 2700 damn MRAPS and bullets in addition to this business on Drones.

[GRRRRR]

If these GOP Senators can keep this going through the night until the light of day, then there will be more coverage about it.

Perhaps the low info voters will hear some of this?

Also, perhaps Paul will start a stronger coalition of Senate and like minded House members and take it to Obozamma.

[Girlene]

Yep.

Toomey repeats one of the questions Paul has asked - “Do you believ the president has the power to authorize lethal force on an american citizen on American soil without a trial?”

Then he reads the reply by Holder - basically, they haven’t, they don’t intend to, but they might. (haha - this filibuster has been good for something, I have that response down pat now!)

“This is unbelievable!!Its a Tsunami!! LEADERSHIP!! We are so hungry for that.”

That is totally what we want. Not apologists or wafflers, but strong constitutionally driven leaders. Don’t you feel the ripple of patriotism again? It’s been so long...so long.

TWELVE HOURS!

I knew that when he did robocalls supporting Snarlin’ Arlen after Toomey lost the 2004 primary.

[TigersEye]

How are the rest of you managing to keep going?

I eat lots of cherry tomatoes! ;^)

Word is that he was redistributing “rich” people’s assets (his bosses’) even back then. Of course back then, it was called theft, but as far as we know, he never got caught, which, BTW, seems to be a skill he has acquired.

[Girlene]

We can hope they are. What IS happening, is this one simple question could not be answered by the administration because they wanted the options to kill Americans on their whim. Period. That’s what people should be taking away from this.

[RikaStrom]

Where did all these people come from? It was like 3 people and now there seems to be a gaggle. Did Cruz, Paul, Lee and the others shame them into it? Didn’t Toomey have dinner with the “won”?

[Brad’s Gramma]

Our Father, which art in heaven,

Hallowed be thy Name.

Thy Kingdom come.

Thy will be done in earth,

As it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses,

As we forgive them that trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation,

But deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom,

The power, and the glory,

For ever and ever.

Amen.

Dick Durbin!

[TigersEye]

Word is that he was redistributing “rich” people’s assets (his bosses’) even back then.

I had not heard that but have long assumed that it was likely. His character screams that he's the kind of guy who handed out "freebies" to his Choom Gang buddies.

[pollywog]

AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RikaStrom]

Durbin???

[RightWingMama]

Dickless Durbin??

[MWestMom]

Amen Brad’s Gramma.

Dick Durbin, sit down.

[Toespi]

What the hell is Turbin doing at our party?

[Girlene]

I’m snacking the night away, Marcella...I gotta stop that!

Oh, now Durbin decides HE’s going to horn in on the filibuster. Durbin says it’s a legitimate question, then tries to dump on Toomey reminding him of 911.

Aw shuddup, Durbin.
