WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Sen.

Who's John Kerry? That name sounds vaguely familiar.

Kerry: "Impeach Bush, filibuster Alito, withdraw from Iraq, send enriched uranium to Iran, and elect me President!"
To: Choose Ye This Day
If this goes nowhere, Kerry is doomed. Running in '08 would be too embarassing even for him.
So the Dems have to weigh the value of a futile filibuster vs. getting rid of Lurch in '08.

POSTED THIS A WHILE AGO KERRY TO FILIBUSTER
Even in print, Kerry rambles on and on and on. It takes him pages and multiple paragraphs of gobbledygook to reach his point: "... I cannot support his nomination, and I hope that none of my colleagues will either."

Wait a second. I just heard that LURCH isn't even there. He's in France skiing or something. What's he doing? Phoning the filibuster in from the slopes?!

I think he served in Vietnam, but I can't be sure.

Filibustering from a Swiss Ski Chalet. How "common man" of him. What a Bleppin' Beautiful Person he is? What a sanctimonious puhtz?

I say keep those desperate dims crying.......
The louder they scream the more they sound like the school yard Bully, who has no friends, no self esteem and very little credibility.
