I'MMA LET YOU FINISH
Hiya!
should of got rid of the damn filibuster when we had the chance
That reminds me of the unsavory phrase "nuclear option" which was used to describe the Repubs' threat to disallow the Dems' planned fillibusters.
Disappeared with "rule of law."
It takes 120 votes in the Senate to pass any legislation.
Rule of law.
Now *that's* quaint.
And yeah, what about the WH mutts?
Somebody posted this last night or early this morning.
I would like to hope that Rahmbo gives Nancy and Harry the ol' heave-ho.
Let's have a real enforcer in the House and in the Senate. How 'bout Hillary in the Senate? Who have we got for the House?
For the House? Barney Frank?
Miniature schnauzers aren't that little. 12-15 lbs. Great family dogs but they don't live much past 10 yrs.
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.
Obama should mail him a dead, rotting carp.
Or Pete DeFazio?
As long as Obama pick center-right nominees for the court, he will have no problem getting them confirmed.
Hah! Just checking DC hotels. The one I was thinking of and everything comparable is already booked solid.
There's a Best Western in town we can still get a room at, though, for the low, low rate of $1,577 per night!
Uh oh. Kyl's pissed. Looks like we're going to need every vote. Hope it's not too late to call Joe and makeup.

Obama should state with all force: No. More. Fucking. Drypowder. Dems.

I'm shocked, SHOCKED that a republican would be a hypocrite.

wow.
i've still got to look at a map.
Libruls can lie about their intentions just as well as conservatards can.
Check area hostels.

Fuck the fuck off. The left won the election. Get the fuck over it.

maybe there's someone with a big hous outside of town who'd rather do a house swap and be in florida for the inauguration??
Why can't we go back to when a filabuster was a real filabuster?
I don't get it.

Tough shit.
You lost.
A-the-a-a-the-a-a-the-a-a-the-a THAT'S ALL FOLKS!!!!!
To steal a line from copyright dave: "Johnny, get him the fuck out of here."
I want to hear the GOP being mocked scorned and ridiculed on every cable news outlet from now on. And any Dem allowed on with a GOP wanker must have a cheat sheet listing every stupid hypocritical thing said wanker has ever uttered.
I want Cliff Schecter to give a seminar on how to respond to GOP idiocy by pointing and laughing and refusing to play on their disingenuous terms.

I was thinking that if our generous hosts in the area don't sober up and retract their offers, we could pile in on them for one night, and then piss off to a more rustic environment to party for a couple of days.
But I still think we're going to need some rooms.
Of course, I'd be perfectly happy to pitch my tent in someone's back yard, but I'm not sure how the neighbors would take that

Tell me something I don't know, like how schnauzers compare to goats.
Kyl is another jackass that has an alligator mouth backed up by a hummingbird ass.

It will be cold in January, V4V. I'm low maintenance, I'll sleep anywhere, but some of the gang would probably need better accomodations.

thank you.
do we know any housebroken republicans?
Kyl is another jackass that has an alligator mouth backed up by a hummingbird ass.
Ironically wearing Crocs.
stoat also said he'd do some scouting around. Of course, that was *before* he got a drunken and inappropriate e-mail from SOMEONE, so we might need someone else to intercede

He just needs more lube to take our giant ramrod.

heh...heh...heh...
"What are we going to do? I will not be stopped!"
Look for a hostel.
OR
Look for something near a metro station. The DC metro is a good system as these things go.

Oh, I get that, but we can handle sleeping in the tent, if nothing else. We're quite cozy.
Or: Maybe we could rent a couple of small campers and park them somewhere? That would handle ten or so, if we can get our hands on them.

I can see we think alike.

As great as it was to see Rahm's creature Tim Mahoney go down in FL-16 yesterday (along with fellow fake Dems Nick Lampson and Don Cazayoux) it's mind boggling how many conservative Democrats were recruited in this cycle. (Please don't say "But he doesn't run the DCCC any more." He's still on the recruitment committee, which is "run" by one of his shills, Artur Davis and how much sway he has over Chris Van Hollen is only an argument about degree.) So let's remember Rahm Emanuel when we start watching the votes roll in from Bobby Bright (AL), Parker Griffith (AL), Ann Kirkpatrick (AZ), Suzanne Kosmas (FL), Debbie Halvorson (IL), Frank Kratovil (MD), Harry Teague (NM), Michael McMahon (NY), Steve Dreihaus (OH), John Boccieri (OH), Gerald Connolly (VA), and Glenn Nye (VA)-- a dozen new voices against progressive values and ideals.
My emotions aren't all that mixed. Obama's ties to the Democratic Leadership Council have been very disturbing for years. So has his close friendship with DLC Leading Light Emanuel and his approval if not active involvement in Emanuel's campaign to recruit harsher and harsher conservatives as local Democratic candidates. Commenter Mark Gisleson recently dismissed Obama's ties to the DLC on the specious grounds that Obama had demanded the DLC stop using his name. But Emanuel is still his best bud and his voting record still shows all those embarrassing alliances with Rahm's corporate agenda. Not to mention that little meeting with Wall Street honchos weeks before the election to assure them that they had nothing to worry about from an Obama presidency. Next to those actions, Mark, a PR move like removing his name from a politically unpopular list (the Dem base hates the DLC) doesn't have a lot of weight.
And now Emanuel is liable to be COS - the WH post with the closest and most personal access to the president, and the launching pad for Dick Cheney's career as the ultimate insider and master WH gamesplayer - controlling access and pushing agendas. This is not a comforting thought. The most powerful forces in the conservative wing of the Democratic party are already lining up to make sure BO stays with their agenda, a slightly milder version of Bush's imperialistic, corporate-friendly policies, no matter how badly they've failed or how loudly we demand a different course. We got this guy elected and they want to make sure he ignores us.

I don't think you could ever train goats to pull a sled. They don't know what "Mush!" means.
As long as Obama makes Republicans scramble in dread of the next mid-terms and then picks good-looking people with photogenic children and the ability to answer questions with slick evasion--progressive but pretending to be center-right a bonus--then he will have no problem getting them confirmed.
Piece of cake!

you do have a way with the words.
You can't make cheese from schnauzer's milk. Can you?
Never heard that before. How so?
A. Buttle
He's lying...
You can't make cheese from schnauzer's milk. Can you?
You can't rollerskate in a buffalo herd either.
Well you *can*, but that doesn't mean you should.
What are we going to do? I will not be stopped!
Probably not room at the CodePink house, but it's something to check into.
I am not even sure what schnauzer cheese would be called.
maybe there's someone with a big hous outside of town who'd rather do a house swap and be in florida for the inauguration??
Craigslist?

Uncle Blodge, Urban Teache
Will you be attending? (if you would answer you're fucking mail, grrr)
We are accumulating large numbers.
V4V
How many, again? You were not the only one drinking last night.

When is it kosher to start criticizing the new president?
Sheety goodness.
You can make cheese from buffalo milk though. Buffalo mozzarella is very good.

Kyl should take note of the thousands the kids that showed up outside the White House election night to celebrate Obama's victory. Or the thousands that gathered to celebrate at schools all over the country: such as the University of Wisconsin, the University of Michigan, UC-Berkeley, the University of Minnesota, the University of Pennsylvania , and Penn State.
Shut the fuck up Kyl.
It takes 120 votes in the Senate to pass any legislation.
Wow, almost all of them huh? Somebody needs to change that law.
"Will you be attending? (if you would answer you're fucking mail, grrr)"
well I did reply to your e mail...
as for attending I don't know what it is of which you speak - but probably not.
september to june teens have my attention.
thanks Blodge. That's an old insult from my yout'...
NTodd on R&R
People really cannot decompress. I got a call last night from our DFO and just got a call from the election lawyer that made our satellite office possible.
and
Yes, I will sign up for a stay at the CP house, THIS SUMMER. You are relentless. (I love you for it.)
"When is it kosher to start criticizing the new president?"
the second he finished the oath.
before that you're criticizing the president elect
"That's an old insult from my yout'..."
when i was a kid, "Blow me, jerk-off" was popular.
"why are the Democrats so mean to Mitch McConnell?"-cable news
A phrase they'll suddenly remember "rule of law"
"Up or down vote."
Yeah, particularly the nasty Repug slanted WaPo AEI groupies. Repugs won't like those words anymore. I wonder what opposite meme the Repugies will come up with next?
Lets make sure we blast them with "Up or down vote" over and over again and make sure the Repugies don't forget it, NOT EVER, NOT a chance pal.
Why can't we go back to when a filabuster was a real filabuster?
I second this! If Kyl wants to filibuster, make him go through a Mr Smith Fuckin' Goes to Washington filibuster, his bladder full, sweat pouring down his face, throat dry and cracking. Let Bachmann spew sixteen hours of crap just to make sure that some evolution-lovin' judge doesn't get nominated. Post the C-SPAN coverage of the madness on Youtube, and see a filibuster-proof majority ensue.
