Am I the only one here watching the Senate debate on CSPAN?

[lamp_shade]

The republics are REALLY pissed and getting nastier and nastier as the time nears to vote (less than an hour).

[Tangerine LaBamba]

1. Yes, I suspect you are,

since there are so many better things to do.

GOPigs being nasty?

You're surprised?

[leftstreet]

2. What nasty things are they saying?

[EFerrari]

5. Just their Top Ten plus procedural bs. All they have is to delay

and to vilify. Sessions is outraged that "illegal aliens" may get a check! :crazy:

[Dawgs]

3. I tried. It's all Republican, all the time.

WTF are the Dems doing?

[The Wielding Truth]

13. I tried,too and it just sickened me to hear the propaganda du jour.

[pinto]

21. They're not on the floor. Know the bill will pass. This is just a temper tantrum session for the (R)

[EFerrari]

4. Ugly is the only thing they have going for them -- people try to avoid ugly.

I'm listening more than watching while I work. Isn't Jeff Sessions charming? He had to drag undocumented workers into this, lol, even though the travel trend is going in the other direction. lol

[lamp_shade]

8. I'm mostly just listening too. Baucus took 15 minutes just to "correct"

all the lies told by the other side. He was good.

[pinto]

22. Yeah. I liked that point by point rebuttal of the (R) claims.

[annabanana]

6. Have you ever seen a cornered badger?

You have now.

[elocs]

14. I've dealt with badgers and they are nasty, ill-tempered critters.

It suits the Republicans, but the comparison is an insult to badgers.

[annabanana]

18. my sincere apologies to badgers. . . . . n/t

[Ichingcarpenter]

7. I've got a screen going on but the sound turned off

It looks like southern republicans all the time. Then the Centeralist dems on

[karynnj]

9. They clearly know that the bill will pass

They are being extremely nasty, but they are not used to loosing. Here's to hoping that they get more practice at that.

[EFerrari]

10. We need a brave Democrat to throw a bucket of water at them and melt their mouths shut.

lol

[lamp_shade]

11. I'm hoping Lindsey speaks one more time. I hope he cries.

[Cleita]

12. I'm listening to it while doing chores.

I hope that the Republicans foam at the mouth so that their constituents can see what rabid crazies they voted for before they become homeless.

[Ichingcarpenter]

16. Conservative Democrats and Republicans talking

Like I said, I'm watching it but don't care to listen to them.

[Piewhacket]

15. Nasty Repukliens? Why that is shocking. I'm stunned...

we wonder why. why why why?
why are they so nasty, so ugly, so vicious, so repulsive, so stupid?
maybe they are just mentally ill? sicko. bannana-whackers

that has to be it.
they are a danger to themselves and others.
and even if there are some sane repukliens, its still soooo hard to tell them apart.

well there you are. the solution obvious.
lock up all the repukliens at Gitmo.
let "military commissions" sort out the sane ones in due course (30 years).

hey, its for the safety of the country.

[annabanana]

19. We must at least 'bell the cat'. . . . . n/t

[Lex]

17. They saw President Obama marginalize them in his Town Hall meeting today.

MSNBC carried the whole thing live, I am told.

I'm sure they are feeling his boot in their arses.

[pinto]

20. I've listened to the last couple of hours. Clearly a rear-guard whine session from (R) who know that

the bill is going to pass.

[MiniMe]

23. No, but I am disgusted by it.

I posted props to Senator Boxer for her tirade against Senator Enzi. I posted about what an a$$hat Sen Enzi is. I think Baucus is doing a good job running the bill. I believe they are voting on Cloture now.

Will Kennedy show up for the cloture?

[MiniMe]

24. Is it my imagination or is there hardly anybody in the Senate Chamber to vote?

Are the repukes not voting on it now?

[Clear Blue Sky]

25. Yes...

[Vinca]

26. I can't watch it anymore - I get too pissed off. nt

[MiniMe]

27. Voting on Cloture now

[alfredo]

28. Fingers crossed.

[MiniMe]

29. Kennedy was listed as an "Aye", so he must be there to vote

Cool!

[lpbk2713]

30. LIEberman voted "Aye".

[ThomWV]

31. Remember the little heart-to-heart that Liberman and Reed had right after the election

Joe Lieberman knows full well that his ass is worthless unless he votes pretty much the Democratic Party line for the next 4 years.

[lpbk2713]

33. I'm sure Chokin' Joe would have preferred a secret vote. LOL.

[slackmaster]

32. Maybe, some of us out here on the West Coast have jobs that don't allow watching teevee

Those of us who DO have jobs.

[MiniMe]

34. I'm at work, and I'm streaming

:). So far, it has gone as expected. Snow, Collins, and Lieberman Yes, I haven't heard Specter's vote yet, Kennedy is there to vote Aye. So it should pass Cloture and be voted on.

[Stinky The Clown]

35. That's as meaningul a debate as ...... mmmmpf ..... why bother? It doesn't matter in the least

These congressional 'debates' are way, way, way less productive than masturbation.
