This is my daughter the art major, who has managed to remain conservative through four years of college with the nose-ring, purple-hair crowd. I am very proud of her.

And I thought she might be spot on about those pantsuits. Somebody on the Rather/Saddam thread said that he expected to see her getting out of a German staff car any day now!

HA!

Yuck! Why did you have to show me that picture of Hitlary this late at night?

Now I'll have to dring 3 more beers just to purge that hideous image from my mind. Thanks!

I'm confused. What did Frist just say about Monday at 6 PM? Is that when they're going to vote?

I think all this has something to do with the filabuster. Frist is forcing the quoram and making sure all the senators know that senate is still in session. I expect he can call for a quoram at any time senators sneak off the floor to get some sleep.
