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...

and that a replacement Supreme must be the same ideologically as the one they're replacing.

Which is also a bunch of nonsense because they're not in a position to pick the nominee.

The pious junior senator from Mass,
Filibustering from Davos with his lass.
He not gonna win,
He just passing wind
Energy crisis averted - we got gas.

"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! ;>)"

Ahh, ok. Stopped watching SNL when Joe Piscopo joined the cast.

Michael said well many historians agree it was at least 35 million. She of course changed the subject.

What they will not admit is they KNOW that communism and socialism kiled millions, but that was just the price that had to be paid. They wouldn't care if a few dozen million Americans died in their search for social utopia.

ALITO NOMINATION -- (Senate - January 26, 2006)

[Page: S232]

--- Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, earlier today I filed a cloture motion on Judge Alito's nomination in order to bring to close in the not too distant future this outstanding nominee's confirmation process.

The cloture vote is scheduled, as my colleagues know, for 4:30 in the afternoon on Monday. If cloture is invoked--which I believe it will be--we will have a final up-or-down vote on confirmation on Tuesday at 11 o'clock in the morning.

In other words, since Sandy Day O'Connor was a dope most of the time, the Supreme who replaces her most likewise be a dope (except, of course, when she voted in favor in Bush in Bush v. Gore).

Full of themselves and their bluster
The liberals screamed "Let's filibuster!"
An attack from the left
Of morals bereft
Such tactics we ain't seen since Custer
.
Like birds in the MoveOn fan rotors
They hoped to impress all the voters
But like a rude cur
They revealed that they were
As unprincipled as their promoters
