No votes yet. The drama plays out via votes. All else is just preparation.

You should never have to prove whether or not you served in the military in order to comment on it. It seems to be the favorite tactic of the DU idiot crowd. The chickenhawk argument is disingenuous on it's face. If you can't back up your position with facts, smear the other side.

By the by, people that have served in the military are as full of shit as everyone else!

That was indeed the tone of his remarks last night - basically one of "well, it's not what we wanted but we can't really do anything about it." I think he and his advisors spent the night mapping out some strategy for today once they realized that they had been had by the traitor RINOs.

There's nothing like a hit-and-run RINO troll.

If the other side of the aisle continues the obstructionism and filibustering, the constitutional option will come out once again and I'll set a date to use it.

Uh huh.

Excellent point. As one freeper pointed out, McVain has ridden into town on that horse one time too many.

What record am I not informed of?

I didn't say you weren't informed of any record.

You seemed offended by my noting what was said by Graham, when the purpose of a Live Thread is, in part, to make notes of exactly that.

You then seemed to think that noting such meant I personally was endorsing Graham as trustworthy and I am saying that is incorrect.

Funny how so many folks think the spanker controls the timing of the spanking.

Don't you mean "spankee"? The spanker is the one giving the spanking. The spankee is receiving the spanking. If you really do mean spanker, that makes no sense whatsoever.

I believe I said earlier today that McCain killed both his own and Frist's presidential aspirations today. Which is fine with me because Frist doesn't have the charisma.
