The “whisperer”’ Reid shows up, mumbles aloud something; Chambliss tosses it all back to Paul. This is fascinating.
Now Toomey is up. He asks a brief question for Paul to recap his position. Surprised to see Toomey there...he’s gonna have to rush to make dinner w/Barry.
Fwiw, I really respect what Paul is doing. Maybe he voted (and gave deference to Barry’s picks) for Hagel and Kerry to give him the “cred” to do this fibuster.
Toomey made good points. Reid is a tool.
I called Toomey’s office awhile ago. I’m glad he spoke up. The starting point for drone strikes in America is NO.
Drone technology IS relatively new, it was really just coming online towards the end of the Bush administration. I shudder when I think of it in the hands of someone like Brennan, who has been accused of running his own operations outside of proper oversight. And under NO circumstances do I want Holder, Napolitano and 0bama deciding when and where these things come to use.
