Good morning once again, all you fellow political junkies. Put on a fresh pot of coffee, put the sticky buns in the oven, put a fresh battery in the remote control, and join us for the latest episode of the world's greatest daytime soap opera, "As the Democrats Bloviate." Yup, once again, it's that time...
Sometime today but I heard it will NOT be televised.
Oh boy.... here comes the swimmer!
Why not.I thought the whole idea was to reach the public..that the surveillance is a GOOD THING!!
HEY NOW............why does KENNEDY get to talk before another Repub?
Leahy hands off to Kennedy.
THE DESSERT CART ROLLS ON!!!!!
Leahy gave him some of his time.
Sen. Leahy knows that by the time the FISA cases reach the Supreme Court, President Bush will be out of office.
The DESSERT Cart or the Mini Bar?
It means there is one full day between the day of the motion, and the day of the vote. You can have the motion at 11pm tuesday, and the vote at 10am thursday.
GASP!!
Geez .. don't republicans realize that Americans are allowed to receive calls from known terrorists to plot and kill people
How dare the republicans not defend the terrorists
/ heavy heavy sarcasm >
oh Goodie .. the fat drunk is up now
"Hey, were sorry moveOn.org, but there weren't enough votes for a filibuster, so moveOn.org...
... you need to moveOn."
GAG! Sen. Kennedy the protector of civil liberties for all? Will anyone in the Senate have the cojones to bring up the fact that Sen. Kennedy did not protect the liberty, or the life of Mary Jo Kopechne!
In terms of bloviating, I don't know which side is worse, ours or theirs. But in terms of truth telling, Democrats are strangers to the concept.
"Alito wants 10 year olds strip searched".
"Bush wants to pack the courts"
blaah blah blah
EXCELLENT analysis! Let's hope we see lots of 'clock cleaning' today...tear its innards apart, in fact. (and then put it back together without that loose screw named Teddy)
As for your next door neighbors, Hillary has trapped herself in another little box with her attempts to be all things to all people so she can't come out with any kind of definitive statement on Alito.
Is it time for the 'thin wa-fér mint'?
Now he's saing the senate role is not limited to determining if the nominee is qualified. OH NO.... it's about the enormous authority the court has etc...
They are alternating hours, not speakers. Our side gets an hour, then they get one. This bloviation continues until a few minutes after 12 EST.
A lecture on ethics from the Swimmer?
Senators must see if judgments would be tainted by ideology.
That would be the "distinguished" fat drunk is up now. :)
