FReepers be prepared for surprises today.
(Excerpt) Read more at c-span.org ...
Lindsey Graham is regretting big time that he went against Frist. Sean was right in saying to him that we wouldn't be discussing any of this right now had he and DeWine voted the constitution option. Graham couldn't answer it.
Well, I hope he (Graham) thinks his political career was worth the accolades he got last night...because, today the applause ends.
So sad, Lindsey. You coulda been a contender.
*groan*
Lindsey wouldn't last two seconds in a fire zone.
next he'll be claiming he understands the persecution Jesus Christ went through.
How big of him. I shall vote with my pocketbook against Lindsey Graham, for the good of the country.
I am not that new! But this is ridiculous! What are we to do? Take it? Yet again? I am not blaming Bush, but what is the point of voting and giving money if they just do whatever they want? Can you answer that?
He sure did, I heard that one too. What a maroon (Graham, not you!).
What I heard was, if one of the seven dems joins a filibuster, Graham will vote to invoke the nuclear option.
Oh well. Let's just see how many get up-and-down votes.
Wolf Blitzer just announced that Priscilla Owen in meeting right now with President Bush and Sen. Frist, I believe he said.
CNN still saying vote could take place tonight.
If anyone caught this and can expand or amend what I heard it would be much appreciated.
I think that Lindsey is regretting his decision. I'd like to see Bush renominate Estrada, and put the cabal of 14 on the spot.
I honestly believe Graham is more important than McCain in this whole issue and that if we can get him to see that the donks are a bunch of leftists beholden to the leftist special interest he will abandon McCain and rejoin the fold. Hell, offer him McCain's chair on whatever committee he currently holds.
OMG---That does it---there is nothing worse they could have done at this time, than to compare themselves to the troops in Iraq---IMHO
They deserve to be out of office ASAP---that is the most ridiculous statement they could have made!!!
You said you wanted the money you gave Bush back. That impled that you blamed him.
Now I could understand wanting a refund from one of the weasels. If I'd given money to one of them I'd be sorely PO'd!
He thinks he is he big hero of the day
I also heard in the beginning how he blames Frist for all of this
That is such baloney. This is what Reid and Byrd have been pushing all along. Every single dem could have signed it.
Well GWB can take it out of the weasal of his choice!
I vote both Mo1!!
Listening to him trying to spin justification for something he says is wrong was quite a feat. he's a damn fool because he belives his powers of persuasion are such we'll be lulled into the false premise he did it for the greater good.
All his voice did was make me scream and pound my fist near the keyboard.
Thanks. I've been going nuts about this too but I truly see it as a win for us in the long run.
What I heard too...any one of the seven Dems, not just any Dem.
I'd be happy to hold his coat while he does. :-)
He would be confirmable because he is PRO-CHOICE>..
Which doesn't matter as Attorney General, but as a SCCJ, it could mean a whole lot...you better believe I would let President Bush know if he nominates Gonazalea and I would really expect Santorum to vote against him....
