LIVE THREAD: Senate Democrats fake filibuster of Samuel Alito - C-span 2 10:00am EST
C-span

Posted on 01/30/2006 5:57:36 AM PST by ken5050

Good Monday morning, fellow Freeper political junkies. One of the more ridiculous episodes of political theater is about to play itself out on the Senate floor, as the John Kerry-led democrats mount an exercise in political futility which will further expose their total irrelevance..So join us today, or drop in on occasion, for the festivities...

It's an SNL skit. Skit on the VH1 Show "Behind The Music" the band Blue Öyster Cult's song Don't Fear The Reaper which prominently features cowbell in it's intro.

laughed at the asthma connection too, but even more giggles when Kennedy somehow linked the sad fate of retarded family members, to Alito.

Can you spell "frontal lobotomy"?

Kennedy even mentioned all the polluted ponds close to where he lives, making the case I guess, that Alito will pour mercury into our fishing holes.

Notice in the picture they have an orange cone out to mark the endagered species crossing.

One of SNL's Greatest skits, involving Will Ferrell (the guy with the cowbell in Ali's picture. It's a running gag....it's a good thing! ;>)

That's correct. He votes no and will have to assume the position.

Laffey will challenge him on the right in the primary. Will Chaffee survive? I hope not.
