As requested, a thread to follow the filibuster.

[July 4th]

He should just read the phone book, dammit.

[Mo1]

He's talking about the haunting salence in the senate

[GOPrincess]

Thanks to all for the tips on watching C-Span 2 online (my cable system only has C-Span 1 which has House stuff going on...). I'm thinking how amazing it is I can watch a TV picture on my screen side by side with my work . Byrd has really lost it. Hugh Hewitt is going to have a hard time choosing quotes to highlight on his show later today!

[HairOfTheDog]

What do you have to say about the silence in the chamber?




WELL?

[PhiKapMom]

My nomination for the quote of the day! That was priceless in #513

[gov_bean_ counter]

If Byrd passes out, who is going to call the WAAAAAAMBULANCE?

[nothingnew]

(Say, can I interest you in a pair of Zircon encrusted tweezers?)

Only if you allow me to trade you a Mexican poncho...or is it a Sears poncho?

This thread is hilarious for the TV impaired (by choice)!!

[hobbes1]

ROTFL.....

[HairOfTheDog]

What would Mickey Mouse say about the haunting silence in the chamber?





hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

[hobbes1]

you may be TV impaired, as am I (at the ofc) But you can open a browser and get it on CSPAN2....

[Mo1]

What do you have to say about the silence in the chamber?

No No .. it's the SAlence

At first I thought he said Salad .. LOL

[nicmarlo]

... I liked how he describe fighting in afgan

Was he talking about fighting or fiddling under this "PRETTY PRETTY PRETTY PRETTY PRETTY" Bluebird Afghan?

[Taffini]

What do you have to say about the silence in the chamber?

Maybe no one is there. Do they show the chamber?

[HairOfTheDog]

There is a haunting salad in the chamber!

[Quilla]

I told him that there isn't word one of this on FR, so apparently it is not happening. I'll keep you updated. Engineers, sheesh, who's to believe em.

[hobbes1]

Oh No...Sahlent Green!!!!!! It's PEOPLE!!!!!!

[mware]

This chamber is silent."

No kidding fool, you put them all to sleep.

[Taffini]

what would Harpo Marx say? What would Stan Laurel say? What would Harry Hudini (spelling ?) say? What would my Good Humor man say?

[RamingtonStall]

He's calling on the names of the Great Liberal Senators of the Past, asking what they would say about the Silence of the Senate. I suspect he is really talking about the Lack of Productivity as the Wielders of the Weapons of Mass Obstruction work their way.

He's complaining about the Silence in the Senate as he has the floor!

Hopefully KKK Byrd will talk Sadaam or maybe himself to death!
