Daschle: "ugh...hello?"
Anonymous lackey: "Hello Mr Daschle?"
Daschle: "Yeah, what is it?
Anonymous lackey: "Sir, they just called another quorum"
Daschle: "#@^%@$#%$#%$!#^#!^#^%"
Daschle: $#Q%#%^%^#^! (continued)

My dad and I just talked about them doing this SUnday. Yes. They've got them by the Cashews.

[Otta B Sleepin]

methinks some of us owe the surgeon an apology

You're so right! (Not me, though......I learned my lesson about "misunderestimating" Team Bush a long time ago!)

[PhiKapMom]

Thanks! I knew it was someone! And he is the one that went after Foster's office to clean it out! How convenient!

[GOPrincess]

Love your scenario! :)

[Otta B Sleepin]

Time to change your tagline......?

[Slyfox]

If there is anyone I wouldn't want to try and outlast in endurance it would be a heart surgeon!

It should be 'no contest' because Hillary is heart'less'.

[freebilly]

Unprecedented, exactly just like filibustering a judicial nominee. Frist is going to show these guys how to really play hardball! If there is anyone I wouldn't want to try and outlast in endurance it would be a heart surgeon!

The doctor be operating....

[PhiKapMom]

KNew something was going on when Sessions and then Graham kept talking! This is great! I knew there was a reason not to go to bed!

[woodyinscc]

Well you have to solve it first! I personally do not think it was a suicide.

I heard it on the George Putnam Radio program here in So. Cal. He was interviewing the woman author who had stayed with him in N.J. doing research for the book she wrote
about him. I am sorry I can't remember her name, and I have never read the book.

np.

I taught a course in my school on conspiracies...spent a lot of time on the Bent One...

Bernard Nussbaum

BINGO - I was racking my brain for his name. He's also the one who does a lot of her behind the scenes dirty work.

[chnsmok]

Maybe all the other Dems are using this to get rid of Hillary. Maybe that is why they want the internals released. Still just thinking. Tin foil hat off now.

[wireplay]

...the flashlight is passed to the next sentry...Bill Frist. He will now make a quorum call and really #$%^ up the sleep pattern of our merry friends who are slumped over in a vermouth stupor. Then he will take a few Z's on the couch, hope to get 51 votes, quorum, sleep, speech, quorum...

[Mo1]

. Qourum calls every 2-3 hours just to break that little REM happiness.

hehehehe

[VRWC_minion]

There doing another Quorum call ?

[GOPrincess]

What has happened about the roll call that seemed to start before Frist began speaking? Was that called off or are they calling people in?

[Capitalism2003]

Capitol switchboard...ask for Frist's voice mail and THANK HIM!!!
