My guess is that the GOP is proposing a rule to limit debate, which will then be debated, and somewhere down the road a cloture vote will be held on the rule to cut off debate. That is just my wild guess; it is foreplay to establish the foundation for a cloture vote later.

Ouch

All I kmow it this isn't Trent Lott's senate anymore.

I was just thinking that. If you recall all those candid shots of Hatch murmuring to Leahy with his hand over the mike, complaining about how unfair Leahy was being, and Leahy just blowing him off, you can tell that Hatch is finally able to release all those pent up frustrations.

The potty-mouth even said "Bullcorn!"

That's easy, just have someone drive him in...over the bridge.

LOL! I wonder if Mrs. Clinton (creepy pantsuit woman) is too busy supervising Bill's love life to bother coming in tonight. Betcha she throws some kind of hissy fit.

I have the TV here in my office or it would be blasting! Right now waiting for the roll call to be complete on the getting of Senators to the floor!

[AF68]

Chuckie Schumer and the rest of the bedraggled Rats are going to have to call a WAAAAmbulance.

[RobFromGa]

Wow, we're over 1000, I didn't know I created a monster!

[jdontom]

There was a clock on CSpan that has run out. My guess is that the clock was the minimum time and unless some senator calls for a close of this process that it can stay open until everyone votes.

Anyone know if Carl Levin is wearing his goofy looking glasses tonight?

[Dolphy]

Carl "the Combover" Levin has arrived. He's whispering to another Senator, probably about those illegal documents and how they went over:)

[MamaLucci]

Proving, without a doubt, who is calling the shots on the RAT side.

[jdontom]

I remenber when you left this morning...Welcome back

[PhiKapMom]

Your synopsis of what is happening would make sense! This sure seems to have caught the DemocRATs off guard!
