Here comes Sheets. To talk about the coal miners in West Virginia.

Somebody tell him this is the Alito debate.

I wish he could utter a complete sentence without stopping between words for a nap.

It's like he has only two or three words on every page.

Tony Snow is the man. Getting Susan off the air 'cause of her slapping our wonderful military sounds just like Tony.

If FoxNews gets her to agree with toning down lots, wouldn't still be surprised if she's been given a larger spot for them. You know that 'fair and balanced' crapola.

However, I would have thought after her drunk performance election night would have deep sixth her completely. I was very surprised she was on with her new face. I watched her on H&C last night and thought she did a really good job.

Shoot, I thought it was Alan Colmes.

Occasionally, Alan Colmes comes on with more makeup than usual and actually looks human.

I think that they use Bondo. When he goes home, day laborers come up to him and ask, "Do you want me to fix that?".

Did Frist or anyone ask for a cloture vote yet?

No. It's too early to do that. Cloture motions are apprpriate when it becomes impossible to get consent to vote, even after an appropriate amount of debate. At this point there has only been a couple hours of debate, and lots of Senators still have their "piece" to say.

Sheets: "They waited, and waited and waited......."

That reminds me of waiting for the Senate to vote on a nomination.

We are waiting and waiting and waiting, Sheets.......
