Does anyone know who the Senate Parlimatarian is? What can we expect?

[Area51]

Okay so we have seen this a million times.

Out comes the Rough and tumble, barking Dogs aka the Repbulican Leaders...

Next will come the whining Democritters to the National Press...

Then it will end with Lott et al wimpering back into their caves with their tails between their legs. Adn the Democritter once again set the tone and Agenda in the Senate.

Just like clock work.
