FILIBUSTER BEGINS AT 6:00 P.M. EST!!!!

I like it when Bennett reminds his fellow Senators that he's not encumbered with a law degree. Just an ordinary businessman ... love it.

[DefCon]

"...an even stronger argument could be made that any attempt to use the
filibuster to entrench the filibuster itself would be unconstitutional..."

That part went right over my head.
and gave me a headache.

I also learned that Chaffee spent a year at a horse-shoeing school in Montana, and still shoes his own horses. How weird is that?

not at all weird if you've ever had to deal with and pay a farrier. he actually probably took a cut in pay, choosing the senate over shoeing horses.

[Miss Marple]

Did Frist decide who spoke when? I think Warner should be towards prime-time viewing, along with some of the other good speakers. Fitzgerald should get the 3AM slot.

[maica]

McConnell is reclaiming the word "Mainstream."

We are the mainstream!

[Howlin]

Are you all STILL voting down there? :-)

[onyx]

You're so right, Darlin. The folks in the cemetary are just now getting their ballots marked for them.

I think we'll need a 10 point lead to cover the fraud.

[primeval patriot]

McConnell says Clinton appointed judges are left-wing terrorist sympathizers.

[Capitalism2003]

McConnel ROCKS! Give him a THANK YOU right after you tell your favorite democRat that he is losing your vote over this filibuster. CALL YOUR FAVORITE SENATOR NOW!!! TOLL-FREE!

I read an earlier thread that both MoveOn and Du were hitting the poll hard. You can vote as many times as you like, the poll is worthless.

[diotima]

FREEP THIS POLL

PLEASE!

[woodyinscc]

The dims just keep ranting, and we just keep winning elections. Let's get jindal home too.!

[Miss Marple]

No, I meant that it is odd to think of Lincoln Chaffee doing any kind of manual labor. I know ferriers are expensive.

[TontoKowalski]

deport tells Howlin:

You must be from the South...... Only southerners know that you 'pitch a fit' and 'have a coniption'

If you're from the DEEP South, you can amend "pitch a fit" to read "pitch a hissy fit"... which is a fit on steriods.

[DeuceTraveler]

Good stuff so far. I'm in Germany right now, but am appreciating C-SPAN and free access using my media player.

[FreeTheHostages]

Well, here's my report: I've got a pass into the Senate gallery and we're going to go tonight and see it first hand!! Cool, huh?

[Darlin']

Yep. LOL. The run-off is Saturday. Elections are nerve racking experiences down here.

[DeuceTraveler]

Doesn't exist according to my server.
