Good morning, fellow political junkies. I'm starting the thread early, because I'll be out and about for much of the morning. Follow along, and comment here, as usual..
For the record, hope I'm way off but I'll say 53-44-3 for approving JRB
How true. How very true.
Put me down for 55 votes for JRB.
Isn't the vote scheduled for 5:00 p.m.? My question is if they voted cloture yesterday, why are they yammering away all day about this if the vote isn't until tonight? Haven't they anything else to do?
I predict 61-38-1 in favor of JRB
Just a quick post to add my vote prediction:
54-43-3 to confirm
Again, I'm very glad I was wrong about the cloture vote.
Will check back later.
Put me down for 58-41-1. There are a few Dems that will fear voting against a black woman, even a Conservative one.
I get a few pictures that won't come up for me. Now I'll know how to fix it. Thank you again.
"What in the heck is he blabbing about. ..."
C'mon, MM - you know that these folks are not intending to speak to any of the real issues on TV. They have to engage in deception and obfuscation and deflection, not actually engaging in debate on issues.
I keep thinking that they might as well be reading from the phone book. It would be more honest.
One would think that they have the "nation's business" to attend to, but the leftist wackos don't seem to understand that the game is over and they lost. They just keep sputtering irrelevancies.
They are projecting. They can't say these things about themselves, so they say it about Republicans. They have to get it out of their systems one way or the other. That is the only way they have to deal with what they have become.
Had to help a customer - what is happening now?
Yep my Grandpa was a Democrat, but he died in 1979, I doubt that he would be one now. He was more of a Zell Miller type of guy!
This is just so much total BullSh!t!
All the rats are talking that this hearing is holding up important legislation;
Yet there is no quorum in the senate chamber, the rats rant, the pubbies aren't even there at 2:15 to keep up the stupid discussion.
Let's forget about filibusters and nuclear options, how about a rule that the Senators have to show up for at least 8 hours a day to receive a paycheck for that day.
What a bunch of pussy-whipped pimps, sitting at their favorite restaurant, paying with OUR credit card, while they're supposed to be at the "office"!
Nothing no one is talking at the moment.
"how about a rule that the Senators have to show up for at least 8 hours a day to receive a paycheck for that day."
Bravo!!!!!
My pleasure!
Well committees are in session, so some of them are actually working. But I understand your frustration.
If you heard it yesterday...just hit rewind.
SSDD :-)
Seriously, if you ever get to DC go to a Senate session and you'll see them all over the place...lobbyists, that is.
