Since I turned off cspan, I gather the dems have trotted out all their old vile partisan weasels!

Hey Fox News, your ratings are going to plummet, I guarantee it.

Schumer now lying. Blanche Lincoln, Arlen Specter, and Russ Feingold all lost re-election bids after the passage of Obamacare. Also, Evan Bayh, Christopher Dodd, Ted Kauffman, Roland Burris, Byron Dorgan, and Carte Goodwin all chose not to seek re-election after passage of the bill.

It seems that all the DemoKrat Senatwhore phone lines and voice mails are all full.

Just tried to call McConnel, McInsane, Durbin etc. and all of them are busy or full.

I hope it’s because WE THE PEOPLE are giving them an earful and not that they are just not answering!

Thurmond was able to take bathroom breaks in a Senate floor closet bucket. Cruz, as far as we no took no breaks.

That has been my experience as well.
However, the phones at Sessions office are taking messages, which I did leave, thanking him for being there with Senator Cruz.

Was unable to leave a message for Senator Lee, which I will continue to try throughout the day. He is so deserving of our thanks and appreciation.

I keep thinking that the depths of my capacity to loathe are reached and then something else comes along and they go deeper.
