I wonder what Mark Twain would have to say about the Congress today? Mark Twain would probably be a leading conservative radio talk show host.

Sounds like Frist is letting them off the hook for tonight. Is this correct? What next, then?

Back then, one of the strategies was to work the older Senators so hard they would collapse or die. With Strom and Jesse now out of harms way, it appears that we can force Byrd and Hollings into a collapsing situation. I hope that unrepentant Klansman piece of s**t keels over and dies tonight. Coughs up a mouthful of blood for each Klansman he recruited.
May God forgive me.

Does this mean it's now an OFFICIAL filibuster?
To: Anitius Severinus Boethius
For Estrada and all those who will come after him.
To: RobFromGa
Frist must not have the votes, he just gave it up until noon tomorrow.
To: RobFromGa
they should speeak awhile - let the dems go home, and then call another one anyway. If I were a senator, I would do that, regardless of what frist said.
To: RobFromGa
Crapped out.
To: Howlin

It seems that this was a totally pointless exercise. If someone knows what was REALLY going on, I wish they would chime in. My speculation was wrong.
