Am I the only one here who finds Sessions adorable? He's just too cute.

Fortunately I missed the screen and hit the rock fireplace mantle beside it. Remotes are cheep.

Yep, leave it to the GOP Senators to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

It's a day late, and a dollar short.

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

There were activities scheduled for the Senate, which is carried on C-Span II. Look at the schedule page, under the heading C-Span II:

So, they are going to force the 7 Democrats to hold up their end of the bargain first - vote for cloture on Owen. That sounds good to me. Hold their feet to the fire, and see if they blink.

I love hearing Reid say, "The nuclear option is over, it's off the table."

I liked Frist and Sessions response better. "No it's not."

1. Get Owens through
2. Get Saad and Meyer out of committee and onto the floor.
3. If the Dems filibuster them, then the deal is DEAD, DEAD, DEAD.

Sessions makes a good point about whether we should judge nominees on their religious beliefs, their belief in marriage between a man and a woman. That's now how we should judge these people.

I thought the party of Democrats didn't believe in judging people?
