Jon Kyl, the second-ranking Republican in the U.S. Senate, warned president-elect Barack Obama that he would filibuster U.S. Supreme Court appointments if those nominees were too liberal.
Senate should make them pee in a bottle to check for stimulants before they begin their filibusters.

No; they had people standing on street corners waving signs. We were going to people's houses.

As I've posted before- the Rethugs had 4 or 5 ancient signholders outside Seabrook's polling place in NH. They had no one inside. Not even a couple of blue hairs to check off their voters as they came in (the names of voters are spoke out loud in NH by law).
The Dems had 2 attorneys, a team captain, 10-15 people checking off names and entering them into a database for the ground team calling and knocking on doors and 10 or so folks outside throughout the day.
It was pathetic really.

Assuming the same techniques brought to bear in the campaign continue into the White House, Obama is excellent at countering opposition tactics.
This is going to be fun, in a geeky political junky sort of way.
As far as the filibustering goes, shouldn't we be able to twist some arms... like maybe the "two girls from Maine"?

Obama planned to stay in Chicago through the week, with a quiet weekend at home. He was still trying to work out funeral arrangements for his grandmother, who died Sunday. A trip to Hawaii for the small private memorial she requested was likely by the end of the year.

Overall, it's not one of my faves, but it has one of those great scenes between Spock and McCoy, where McCoy really digs into Spock's psyche... Nimoy and Kelley play it brilliantly.
Oddly enough, I think Kelley's best performance in any of the Star Trek movies comes in the otherwise abysmal "Star Trek V" - either Shatner really knew how to direct Kelley, or Kelley left to his own devices was a much better actor than anyone thought (Laurence Luckinbill is stellar in that movie, too)...

These were ballots the optiscan machines rejected probably due to inadequately filled in circles or lines. Or it's possible there were problems like I saw doing Election Protection--- someone voted for a race then also did a write-in, or voted straight ticket but then wrote-in one of the races. How the latter situation was handled was to examine the rest of the ballot and count those votes. IOW the entire ballot wasn't voided.
Fact is, the recount is a hand count, the ballots visually examined, then fed back into the machine. If Franken is smart, he has observers watching and doing a hand tally.
Hey Franken, you need help with this, give us a shout. I'll come up.

A reported 91% of Republicans "approve" of Sarah Palin, including 65% who "Highly Approve" of her.
They really don't get it, do they?
I wonder how many classrooms around the country that have had a picture of Chimpy on the wall for the last 8 years will somehow forget to put Obama's in its place.

For the longest time, we had a photo of Chimpy on our dartboard.
Novak: Forget Palin. Why Not Gingrich in 2012?
In serious conversations among Republicans since their election debacle Tuesday, what name is mentioned most often as the Moses, or Reagan, who could lead them out of the wilderness before 40 years?
To the consternation of many Republicans, it is none other than Newt Gingrich, the former speaker of the House.

Atlas Juggs is suggesting that the SCOTUS wants to check the kerning on Obama's birth certificate.
Good lord, Pammy's serious.
"I can see a unanimous Court (en banc) decertifying the election if Obama refuses to produce his birth certificate," says Raymond S. Kraft, an attorney and writer. "They cannot do otherwise without abandoning all credibility as guardians of the Constitution. Even the most liberal justices, however loathe they may to do this, still consider themselves guardians of the Constitution. The Court is very jealous of its power - even over presidents, even over presidents-elect."

My youngest daughter burned the tip of her finger on the stove's heating element becuase she couldn't remember if red or black was hot.
She is, however, only five, and it is doubtful that she will ever do it again.
Could someone give me the precis on the Obama birth certificate story?
If his mom is an American citizen and he's born in the state of HI and/or spends his first three years, then returns at age ten for the rest of his minority, where's the controversy?

I think I hear winger head's exploding.
CHICAGO (Reuters) - Researchers have developed some of the tiniest solar cells ever made and said on Thursday the organic material could potentially be painted on to surfaces.
So far, they have managed to pull 11 volts of electricity from a small array of the cells, which are each just a quarter of the size of a grain of white rice, said Xiaomei Jiang of the University of South Florida, who led the research.
"They could be sprayed on any surface that is exposed to sunlight -- a uniform, a car, a house," Jiang said in a telephone interview.
"Because it is in a solution, you can design a special spray gun where you can control the size and thickness. You could produce a paste and brush it on," she said.
Eventually, Jiang envisions the solar cells being used as a coating on a variety of surfaces, including clothing. They might generate energy to power small electronic devices or charge a cell phone, for example.
Solar cells, which convert energy from the sun into electricity, are in increasing demand amid unstable gas prices and worries over global warming.
Most conventional solar cells are made up of silicon wafers, a brittle substance that limits where they can be placed.
any teams of scientists are working on different ways to make solar cells more flexible in the hopes of taking better advantage of energy from the sun.
The tiny cells from Jiang's lab are made from an organic polymer that has the same electrical properties of silicon wafers but can be dissolved and applied to flexible materials.
"The main components are carbon and hydrogen -- materials that are present in nature and are environmentally friendly," Jiang said.
In research published in the Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy, Jiang and colleagues showed an array of 20 of these cells could generate 7.8 volts of electricity, about half the power needed to run a microscopic sensor for detecting dangerous chemicals and toxins.
Her team is now refining the manufacturing process with the hope of doubling that output to 15 volts. "It's a matter of months," Jiang said.
She is, however, only five, and it is doubtful that she will ever do it again.

How many of you really watched what Mr Berlusconi said? Not so many. What Berlusconi said -suntan --is a compliment and it is possible to understand it only if you watch the video when he said it.
Berlusconi is one of the greatest friends of the United States and he will never offend an American, especially the new American President.
The storm came from Italy, where the radical far left & communists that tries to pass Obama like if a member it is short of arguments. They really have NO sense of humor,the left is finished here but i am sure they didn’t also heard what Berlusconi said live.
I repeat, it was a compliment to Obama, nothing else.

Even though there's a music soundtrack over the whole thing, she doesn't stop talking for over three minutes. THREE MINUTES. That's a long time.
Here's a comment to Pammy's post:
"I am sure Obama will have some print specialist make up a forgery by then. You do have to ask why he hasn't produced one yet. It's no big deal if you have one, and if he was born in the US, he'd have one somewhere. The question is, does Roberts have the spine to confront this if Obama refuses to comply?"
heh.

This explains the PEOTUS power grab, website, placards, etc. He's thinking that if he makes a bold and audacious stake on the presidency that no one will have the guts to challenge him. Fits right in with the Rules for Radicals.
Maybe Thanksgiving won't be so awkward after all--one of two conservative brothers voted for Obama and generically racist mom did not vote, i.e., couldn't vote for BO but couldn't vote against him either--she's one who I predict will grow to love him.

Ignorance of the statute defining "natural born citizen." It's not defined in the Constitution (despite what that "lawyer" Pammy cites thinks), it's defined by statute, and has been since the Constitution was adopted.
The claim is the birth certificate in Hawaii is fake, for reasons that vary as much as the supposed boundaries of the Bermuda Triangle.

does Roberts have the spine to confront this if Obama refuses to comply?
If Roberts shows his to Obama first.
Most senators are receptive to Lieberman's argument that allowing him to stay represents the type of unity that President-elect Barack Obama espouses.
The aide also said that Lieberman was not offered a subcommittee, as has been reported, but rather was offered chairmanship of a lesser committee. He didn't specify which one he was referring to. However, if Lieberman left Homeland Security, Sen. Daniel Akaka (D-Hawaii) would be next in line and would have to give up Veterans Affairs, which would then be open for Lieberman.
There is no part of this that isn't horseshit.

Gee, you'd think that if, say, someone had a driver's license and a primary home in Texas, but claimed to be from Wyoming, that the Supremes might want to look into that rule about the VP not being from the same state as the prez, too...
I used to wish Pam Atlas would remember that she has children, and try to back away from the keyboard and do some parenting stuff, and now I am thinking that, even though she sometimes drags her kids into her vlogs, they're better off with her in one spot 24/7. Run free, Atlas children! Save yourselves!
