So the fillibuster is over??? I just returned

and they are voting??? What happened?

for the second time, I think...it failed the first time.

(edit: spelling)

What an asshole. He said, "I can't wait until I get my hands on a nominee under the next Democrat, I can't wait." Do they really think 100% of the nominees should be approved?

Threats are so unbecoming. What a wuss.

And our Bushevik Caesers often come through on them...ask Wellstone or Carnahan...

Just 100% of the good upstanding well qualified conservative idealogues, who put their political philosophy over the law.

that sanctimonious bitch. Remember what Bob Kerry said: "Santorum? Isn't that Latin for asshole?"

Clinton had 64 blocked vs 4 Republican nominees filibustered. If they stop Dems next chance it will hurt them if it gets over 4% held out.

He is reluctant to sue for a change in Senate rules to overturn the Supermajority thing, just in case Repukes want to use that tactic against Dems...
So the rules are good when right-wing neo-con-job types want to use them against Democrats, but the Dems are wrong to play by the rules against Repukes....
The hypocrisy of these extremists is so blatant and transparent; how is it that so many sheeple in this country are blinded by these morons???

Personally - I can't wait either

(on edit):

They're going for a THIRD vote! Maybe they didn't hear the results of the first two, or do you think they're going to change anyone's mind in 15 minutes?

:wtf:

n/t

I think...

Cspan just said they are 'not voting'

It was proposed by Democrats back when the Repubs were blocking all of Clinton's appointees, but shot down by the Republicans. Apparently they've had a "change of heart" and probably just want to take the three votes as a symbolic gesture to throw in the Dems' faces.

so they cannot vote..

total dunces..all of them

First one was the 4th or 5th time for the Judge from Texas. She lost 53 to 42. The second was for Kuhl and she lost 53 to 43. Now they are doing Brown.

I sincerely doubt the end result will be much different.

they are now voting on the issue which dems were blocking because repubs have a majority vote. but now that it's being voted on there's no repub majority?
what gives? they fell asleep after all, they changed their minds thanks to relentless debating by the dems?

the whole 40 hours of palaber was about the fact that the Dems. used a tool that is available to them and has been used by the Repugs before but not in the same way.

The speeches were because the Dems. had been filibustering the Judicial nominees that they felt were far to the right. There were four of them including Estrada who backed out. When you filibuster it takes a 'super majority' or 60 votes to do 'cloture' or close the filibuster.

After the speeches, they went back and tried again. The Repugs were not able to get cloture on any of the three they just tried to put up gain. Now there are 6 who are being filibustered.

I hope that clears it up.

Sanscrotum ejaculating through his mouth, right now

and how great the pukes are.

I don't get it how come this guy gets this much time to ruin my day. Who in the fuck does he think he is?
