I can't get into the actual threads, themselves... but: here are some of the titles therein, at present:

"I'm Going for REVENGE!"

"DEMOCRATS ARE TRAITORS"

"I Just Hugged My Daughter Close To My Heart, Went Into the Bathroom"

"Two Words to 'Aye Dems' -- F*** You!!!!!! -- And F*** You Again!"

"This is the way the world ends - not with a bang but with a whimper"

PJ: I pinged this to you, in case it's helpful to you later on. :)

I liked the scene when he was being dragged away from the dictators by his mother, when they defected back to the US. LOL! Stewie and Brian, what a pair.

11 am tommorrow? Hmmm I wonder if the country club senate is looking for a way to delay the confirmation till after the state of the union.

I hope the left wing core of the democrats realize they have been had. the filibuster was never going to happen, it was always a sham. The fact olympia snowe condemned it makes it even MORE of a sham manuver. The only conservative thing snowe does is CYA her political posterior.

I hope the left puts the fire to their members right now and says no more money until....

"The DailyKOS Kidz are on suicide watch now.

Here is a typical post:

"Any Democrat who votes for cloture is no longer a Democrat.

Take down their names and kick their ass in the next election theyre in.

Remember today, January 30, 2006. Today was the last day of the American democracy. It died today.

Welcome to the New World Order."

Hoo boy. Are they on the lookout for black helicopters flown by Halliburton?

What's really funny is that the RATs were phoning and faxing and e-mailing all of the Senators, all weekend, trying to convince them that, if they weren't going to vote against cloture, then abstain altogether so that the Good Guys wouldn't get the 60 votes needed. I guess they don't understand that the general public -- at least, the ones who are paying attention -- would see that the same way they would see an outright "no" vote.

Thanks.

Anyone else have the other 3 Dims Senators voting for a filibuster on this SUPREMELY qualified (even according to the ABA) nominee?

As a former statistician, I can tell you that you just displayed 100 out of 100 thoughts generated by the good folks over at DU.

How about a prayer thread. Thanking the Lord that it's not President Gore or President Kerry.

So, will the Dems even show up? Or obstruct once again?

I assume those asterisks are yours, since defiling the F-word with asterisks is a bannable offense at DU.

No, no! Don't leave now. This is the best part.

You just missed the hilarious spectacle of Senator Stupid quoting Shakespeare, and very badly.
