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

C-span

[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...

[Cboldt]

Does anyone have an unofficial filibuster tally going on, the number who have said they will support a filibuster, and the number who have said they will not?

I count 64 against, at least (haven't check in the past couple hours). THose expressed unequivocally "for" is something on the order of 20.

[nuffsenuff]

For what? Kerry's up now.

[OXENinFLA]

KERRY on the floor........

KERRY IN ON THE FLOOR

Thank you. I had heard the real story from a source outside of any Repubs and didn't know they had corrected it.
OMG! I hear that voice now - gotta find the mute button. I had hoped to never hear it again after November 2004

If he delivered what I would call a moderate vote (like Ben Nelson) I could see it. But no-o-o-oo-o-o-o!

[Mo1]

he looks alot younger then her

Seasons 4 through 9 are tough to watch, ever since Mike Farrell exposed his looney left POV for all the world to see.

[small voice in the wilderness]

Ba****d. But let him keep on. He's digging his own grave.

[toddlintown]

This is a repeat of his last stand-up routine last week.

[A Citizen Reporter]

Uh OH, Rush Limbaugh knows how Alito is going to rule, and Kerry doesn't! LOL

[saveliberty]

Yodeling his way into the history books.

It's just a miracle that Chaffee has been able to hang onto his seat as long as he has, same with Chaffee and Snowe. Maine is even more far left than R.I.

Like her son, maybe?

[Carolinamom]

I've muted the sound, but Kerry looks like he's got Grecian Formula on the hair around his face.

[saveliberty]

That's great! He's excommunicating Ben Nelson and Tim Johnson. No one wants Sheets, and rightly so

[newnhdad]

he's opposed to Alito because conservatives like him.
Yea, that's a great reason, I'm against everything he's for. That'll win seats in this year.
I'm just waiting for three of them to come out as the Marx Brothers and sing the song "I'm against it".

[nuffsenuff]

shut up Kerry.

[American Quilter]

That's a May/December relationship ..he looks like her son..

I had the same thought.
