Well then, shut it down. 'smostly worthless anyway.
GOD! I'd LOVE to get in there and plant my size 11R combat boots right in their inflated egos!
Doe the President have the authority/power to order the arrest of Senators that don't show? If so, he could have them arrested and brought to the chamber.
We certainly wouldn't be any worse off.
Even hellholes like Massofcommiechusetts and Rogue's Island sometimes get republican(in name only) governors.
A little perspective, folks, please! First, this is an item from PMSNBC. Secondly, I think the Senate 'Pubbies are starting to feel their Cheerios and aren't in much of a mood to continue to allow letting the MINORITY Dem party call the shots.
The voters handed them a clear majority in November and gave Bush a mandate. If they know anything, they know that this session is the time to put up or shut up. If they don't come through with the President's agenda, they know that they will never see a majority again.
I think we will see Senate 'Pubbies who are energized and ready to take control - FULL control of the Senate and prove that the voters were right to give them that majority.
Too bad we don't manufacture rope in America anymore.
Wouldn't be such a bad thing. Wouldn't be so bad if the federal courts shut down either.
Approved (with Luttig)
Kerry's already left town. May they all leave and never return.
A majority of either House can compel the attendance of absent members.
I'm with you on Olsen............I would love to see him on the Supreme Court.
Lord help ya if ya did. The resulting explosion could cause you to drown horribly like the guy who fell into the septic tank.
According to Article I, a majority of a House can compel the attendance of absent members. Frist will need to hire bounty hunters.
I think the PEOPLE of the USA should DEMAND 100% attendance and 100% VOTE of their pay is PRO-RATED! They miss 50% of the votes, they are CANNED and immediate elections are held in their home state. Their pay is withheld. Time to get tough on these lazy bastards. They are aggravating the Gunny!
Maybe we should bring back caning.
We could braid our own rope using colorful ties from Tom Daschle's wardrobe. Kind of fortuna too.
Sign me up!
"Moderate Republican Lincoln Chaffee says that if a dyed-in-the-wool conservative like himself is willing to oppose the President on this issue, it should give pause to all Americans. Olympia Snow, hardly a moderate by anyone's estimation, elaborated that when Republicans like herself and centrists like Hillary Clinton agree on an issue, it's pretty safe to say that they are on the right side of history. Commentator Dan Rather is reported to have documents which clearly indicate President Bush is plotting a fascist takeover of the judicial branch of the US government. More as this develops ..."
