Where the F!@K are they?!!!!

Think this same scenario would happen with a Repub? I doubt it. They would have appointed him to be head of a Committee by now.

5. Franken's team is doing a grand job. He'll have that seat for his entire life if he wants it. (nt)

9. Didn't something similar happen with a Republican in 2004, and they just swore him in the day after
Edited on Tue Feb-03-09 11:39 PM by Marr
the election, while disputes were still going on? Their attitude was as if the swearing in were a magical spell which, once uttered, would make the recount disappear.

11. Dem Leadership
How many times have I got to tell you people that oxymoron is a word that comes to mind when contemplating things done by the "Dem Leadership".
