      Way to yield the floor!!!
      I wish he would have been able to keep it going but he's done more for the American people than most today, and I hope that the people have taken notice.

      • The man made news, even though Dick popped in a few times in an effort to look relevant and to toss in situations that didn't apply to what was being discussed

        • Well, I wonder if there's going to be any more filibustering going on now that we've got that one in the books.

          • I don't think we'll see another like that for a long while. Especially since it's so much easier to say "we'll filibuster" and if you have the numbers then you let the threat hang. In this instance, one senator held everything on that floor up all day long.

              No way are they going to let anyone else speak that they don't have to now.

                No no, I'm talking about other things, I know that there's no chance at further filibuster on the nomination, if I understood what tricky dick was saying.

                "Limit speakers to no more than 10 minutes" or something to that effect.

                  • Should have whipped it out and said "I'm going to piss on this institution the same way that Harry Reid has, but I will not piss on the constitution the way Obama has."

                        My first thought was that it would be inappropriate to do so on house floor. Then, I remembered that the let that Obummer guy in there. So, anything is possible.

                        I hope something productive comes of this, but I doubt it. Like Paul Ryan said yesterday, that place is a dysfunctional joke and nothing gets done around there.

                            • GOP homeboy John McCain now tearing into Rand Paul for his "stunt" yesterday.

                              Glad to see the GOP is still as worthless as it was before yesterday.

                                That's for sure. Next election (starting in the mid terms) I will be voting on the man and principle, not the party. Whoever the best man will win in my book, Libertarian, republican or democrat.

                                Heck if the repubs are going to be democrats in everything but abortion, I might as well go democrat too and get the free stuff before the country implodes.
