LIVE THREAD: SJC hearing on the NSA surveilance program - C-span 1; 9:30 am EST

Posted on 02/06/2006 6:08:53 AM PST by ken5050

Good Monday morning, once again, fellow political jinkies. The NFL season may be over, but the political season inside the Beltway is 24/7/365. So join us, if you can, as those wacky Dems on the Senate Judiciary committee reprise their pitiful efforts to once again smear President Bush and score political points..

Dems: Swear him in! Swear him in!!

[They hope he might say something they can hang him for later.]

Specter resisting, saying it is not necessary.

Dems whining.

Specter: Chairman (Specter) has ruled. [Calls for vote]

Dems: Call for roll call vote. [Talk about stupid.]

Specter: Enough votes already. The Ayes have it.

Feingold: Demands to see proxies of Senators not present.

[Dems are trying to maneuver, since 2 Pubbies are missing from the committee.]

Sessions: I'm sure the AG won't perjure himself in any way and I remember having a conversation with Myers and Rumsfeld and one of the saddest days in their career was having to come into a senate committee and raise their hand as though they'd lie to this country. Having to routinely stand up and give an oath when they are under oath basically and must tell the truth. It's a question of propriety.

OH, And the dems want a ROLL CALL vote on the ruling from the chair.

Feingold requests to see the written proxy vote from Brownback (is there another GOP absent?).

Sessions is explaining why Senate hearings rarely require executive testimony to be sworn.

Time to call off the hearing because it's already apparent nothing will be accomplished.

Specter: Let's not have a protracted discussion about this. We have the votes.

Leahy making opening statement now.

Right. They may have been given plenty of leeway, but NOT now.

Feingold is an ass. He wants to see if he can get Gonzalez to purjure himself. I have no idea what the proxies are.
