Thanks. Well...Rand yielded rather abruptly, but he was a warrior today.

I hope TigersEye is correct (post 721), but what I expect to happen is that Obama is going to pretend the filibuster never happened, other to say that Paul was politically grandstanding and that Holder had already answered the question in his hearing. Obama adm does this sleight-of-hand time and time again, owing to a corrupt media.

Already this note from a Freeper: “Just checked CNN.com, cbsnews.com, and msnbc.com. The Paul filibuster is a text-only sub-level headline that is not called out. You can hardly find out that this event took place. Amazing.”

Obama and Holder will issue some meaningless “meaningful” statements, and the Brennan confirmation will pass.

BUT, of even more significance, is that the Repubs may have awakened from their stupor to fulfill their Constitutional responsibility. It’s the Constitution, GOP stupids.

Bracing myself for tomorrow and praying!

We can always hope. Don't count on Lindsey Graham, though. He's already called it ridiculous to think that drones would be used to kill Americans here. ... And, he's calling this debate "paranoia between libertarians and the hard left that is unjustified."

“All I’m asking of the president is that he says in public that he’s not in favor of summarily executing people.” Rand Paul

I really think it's a lose-lose situation for the Bamster. The question above is the one he is refusing to answer. Frankly I hope he does try to ignore it because that will wake up some more Americans from their Kool-Aid comas.

If he responds he looks weak because that means Rand Paul, a freshman senator, has set the agenda. I'm sure he would also respond in his usual divisive non-answer gobbeldygook which no one will take as a real answer after this. Rand would just slap it down again the same way he slapped down Durbin's straw men.
