Well actually the Dem caucus has 60 members, 60 is votes is the number needed to break a filibuster. That they can't get their members together proves they can't govern.
I am really starting to like Al Franken. Harry Reid might be scared to stand up to Lieberman but Al sure as hell ain't! He punked Lieberman and told McCain to get lost too!
Franken just showed us that Obama is a total liar.
Obama promised that he would make sure that both sides of the aisle will get their chance to speak. So far, this congress has had months of secret meetings behind closed doors locking out the rep from the talks.
What they did not know is many dems came out and then let the rep members what was going on.
The dem party is becoming a clown act.
Franken is a idiot and just showed the nation how the dems leader think.
Not really. Both moves had the same intention: Shutting down the debate.
No debate would continue after the reading of the bill. The reading of the bill was designed to slow the process down. Whats the hurry anyway?Franken was being petty.
WRONG. It proves that everyone has differences of opinions. Or, you don't understand that?
Yes a concept the left holds dear as evidence by this thread where a number of posters have suggested physical violence should be visited on someone with a different opinion.
I disagree, I think what McCain said was very important, if the Senate gets away from the comity that has been its hall mark to the pettyness exhibited by Franken, the place will devolve into the political equivalent of WWE.
Ah yes the WWE, grown men play fighting in their underwear... Seems well above what goes on in Congress half the time.

Where did he tell McCain to get lost, and how does Franken get to be chair? Didnt he just get elected?
