<0> they will have to pull a nuke
<0> or lose by 1 vote
<1> do you have a source on this 426?
<0> about the Reid thing?
<0> i screwed up...
<0> let me start over...
<0> Reid said that he would support a filibuster
<0> he would vote to sustain a filibuster
<0> the only options now are to nuke or lose by filibuster
<2> Woo.
<0> I don't think democrats can win either way really
<2> Democrats win! Weee. :P
<0> this has been one of the longest confirmation processes in history if i recall correctly
<1> but 426
<1> where did you hear about reid supporting fili
<0> on Fox news
<1> k
<0> just now
<0> i can probably find it for you somewhere if you want
<3> w00t
<3> new BSG tonight
<0> oh my god
<1> well i mean its ok of course i believe you i just wondered
<0> Murtha says that Iraq is now a civil war
<0> hahahaha
<0> this guys ****ed in the head
<3> theres a news flash
<3> murtha?
<3> ****ed in the head?
<4> dpuchebag
<3> the hell you say
<3> =)
<0> nope its not up yet Falllll
<3> ill be happy when we have more parties in elected positions, even if its the ones i oppose
<1> Reid, who said Alito was a "bad choice," said he would sustain a filibuster should an opportunity come around. But he concedes that the votes are not there to sustain the filibuster.
<1> pfff
<3> thats the only thing thats going to stop this constant red vs blue bickering where one side of power always has to be the oppisite of the other
<1> there's a fair-weather fan
<3> hell, maybe we can even get the republicans to start acting like republicans again if they lose their grip
<3> theyre long over due for a good swift foot in the ***
<1> conservatives need to take back the republican party
<3> no **** dude
<3> of the republicans need to rename themselves
<1> mhm
<3> id personally perfer that so that actual republicans can take back their party
<4> A year ago, there were 145 homes priced at $500,000 or more for sale in Phoenix. Now, there are 1,341.
<4> man
<4> when the burst comes, all these "rich" Americans are gonna go broke when their house's equity is kaput
<3> i think the RINOs would be better served calling themselves the 700 club party
<5> The rich couldn't care less.
<3> "the rich"
<6> Yes, 'the rich'
<4> The White House expressed confidence that Alito's supporters had the 60 votes needed to cut off a filibuster,
<4> i thought only 48 were on record?
<3> cl*** envy rules
<4> interesting
<0> man its cold out
<1> people off the record are still making deals
<6> I don't envy them, being rich is a headache.
<7> The EVIL RICH!!! Those 1% of the country that apparently got 51% of the vote... somehow... umm...
<3> its a responsibility for sure, i wouldnt say its a headache
<6> MikeyD, how would you know?
<3> if you want to be one of the so called rich, theres responsibility that goes along with it
<3> cause i know "rich" people
<3> alot of them are my clients
<0> how do you "Vote" for a filibuster?
<0> hahaha thats insane
<6> I grew up with them, it prompted me to move away and never look back.
<3> and ive seen ones that handel it with great wisdom and responsibility, and the ones that have no idea how to manage their lifestyle and become poor again
<0> filibusters need to be done away with, they aren't a part of the constitution nor should be
<6> Well the ones that handle it are few and far between.
<3> not really
<3> i can sum it up with 2 examples
<6> Many go broke, then they are really ****ed.
<3> buzz aldrin and mc hammer
<6> You can't sum it up with 2 examples, that's silly.
<3> buzz being well educated and prone to responsible decision making knew how to save, invest, and plan his ***ets so his gains wouldnt disappate over time
<3> however, mc hammer who had considerable wealth at one time, squandered it through poor decision making and idiotic planning
<3> it all comes back to what makes rich people rich and poor people poor
<3> intelligence
<1> those are good examples
<8> gee, and I thought it was money...
<1> i have mc hammer pants on right now in fact
<0> can someone explain a filibuster how it works today in the government?
<3> if you give a dumb*** stock piles of money, theyll soon be poor again
<0> i know alot of things but not everything=P
<4> 426hemi - senate floor rules allow unlimited time for speaking
<0> like all they have to do is talk the **** for what 24 hours?
<4> because there is no stipulated time limit, they can go out and bull**** forever and ever
<4> rules don't require anything substantial has to be done, just activity (speaking)
<1> 426: filibusters today are sophisticated to the point where nobody *actually* filibusters anymore
<3> if you give an intelligent person the same amount of money, theyre more prone to better decision making and therefore know how to use their money wisely
<1> they only threaten to filibuster and pretend it happened
<4> read a phone book, read the constitution, and reading the bible are some things past fillibusterers have done
<0> now its just "intention to filibuster" isn't it?
<1> yes
<4> Fallllout: correct
<0> uhmm
<0> ok
<0> hahah i still don't see how it works but , ok
<0> heheh
<6> Make 'em actually do it and they will back down.
<0> Tailor thats what i am saying
<1> is not monday's vote for cloture a preemptive strike at a drawn-out filibuster?
<1> it requires 60 votes
<3> i hope the whole thing backfires on kennedy and kerry
<4> now you threaten a fillibuster? then you will get a forced vote coming up which is the same as trying to end a fillibuster (60 votes)
<0> yeh but they only need a simple majority to p*** the judge
<1> ah so yeah
<3> i just wish feinstein, boxer and pelosi would get involved in it so they can share the consiquences also
<4> the white house apparently thinks they have the votes to get the nomination voting forced
<0> but they need 60 to cloture?
<4> yea
<3> OH
<6> To end cloture
<3> and in good news
<0> er 60 votes to kill the fili
<3> yesterday the gov singed georgians voter id law
<3> horray!
<4> but instead, frist is just putting in a forced vote request basically to force the voting of alito to occur at a time later in the week
<3> georgias rather
<4> and it requires 60 votes to get that forced vote initiative p***ed
<0> ahhhhh i see i am using the word "cloture" as "Closure"
<4> 58 dems are on record of supporting
<3> badlands: nice host
<0> thats what i thought it meant hahaha
<4> white house says they have 60, and are being quite pompous about it too heh
<0> like stopping the blood clot
<9> hey guys
<0> er stopping the bleeding "Cloture"
<9> hehe thanks
<6> 58 dems?
<4> 58 votes
<4> 3 dems
<3> i want a vanity host that says come.get.some.disrespect.bitches.org
<4> mistyped
<0> the republicans have like 4 dems that are voting for Alito
<1> 426: cloture does mean closure -- http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=cloture
<0> thats 56 that the dems have
<4> 4 now?
<0> er that Alito has
<4> still one shy
<6> I hope they try the fillibuster, so the nuke option will be used.
<4> 59, Rusty
<4> 55 repubicans all love alito heh
<4> + 4 dems
<0> Falllout yeh but Cloture in government means like "Closing debate by voting"
<4> but white house says this is a cake walk, they have the votes
<1> 426: that is true
<1> that is what i said
<0> yeh
