Heck, I'm getting sleepy just thinking about a filibuster...
To: GOPrincess
can someone hack into cspan2 audio and play "send in the clowns?"
To: Havoc
Hatch was great,,,also the other Senators working with him....they demolished the dems again..
Dang this dial up is slow as a Quorum call
To: Julliardsux
delay plus a quorum wasn't present... keeping the dems awake and in the senate.
To: deport
Do you agree with Havoc (#1251) that the fillibuster starts tonight?
To: Utah Girl
The rules are sure arcane and confusing. They're meant to be.

Shouldn't Saddam be involved on the losing end of a lead tossing contest by 6pm on Monday eve??......
(then make sure that all the pubbies show up and vote while the dems are trying to trample each other to get in front of a microphone or tv camera......sound like a plan??...)
To: ellery
Don't even go there!LOL
To: PhiKapMom
So are you saying Frist can keep calling for Quorums all night long? Not that I mind if he does but I might go get some sleep if that is the case. And I'll enjoy it all the more knowing the Dems aren't getting any.
To: Julliardsux
nahhh...should play "they're coming to take me away", the old dr. demento classic....
To: sissyjane
Are they forcing a filibuster,or are they voting on Monday? I'm very confused!
The dems have got to agree and a vote, time, etc. So far they haven't..... If they can't agree then it's more debate until a cloture vote is called or the item is dropped from the senate schedule......
To: MamaLucci
I knew it, they did leave. Looks like Frist is gaoing to make it impossible for them to stray too far from the floor. This may be a long night of one rall call after another.
