143. STFU - ever heard of ABSTAIN on a cloture vote?? they don't get 60
Edited on Fri Jan-27-06 05:48 PM by sundancekid
votes, and our guys can get some political cover all at the same time ...

whatever happened to you sitting down and shutting up like you posted you would elsewhere???

to paraphrase the great Jack: take your crazy debbie-downer sh*t elsewhere, we're all filled up here

on edit: senator ben nelson's office just told me they are in fact "tallying" the calls and faxes to see what final position on cloture and on the vote the senator will take; it seems that he is having to consider all this latest input from the american people! ... also, feinstein has declared on her website her change of position, and will now vote "no" on cloture after all the massive "input" of calls etc. that she's reviewed (remember, that she had announced last sunday on face the nation that a filibuster was a no-go, because there didn't seem to be a need or call for it ...

KEEP CALLING/FAXING/PRAYING/IMPLORING/ETC. each of us!!!!
