[livvy]

3. Indeed he is. I am loving it! n/t

[EFerrari]

6. Hi, livvy! Kerry just gets better and better. I hope he stays in the Senate

for a long, long time. :hi:

[livvy]

17. Yes, he does!

:hi: I didn't recognize you in your new name, although it should have registered. I like it...it's so you!

[globalvillage]

4. I'm shocked.

MSNBC is actually covering parts of this live. Will wonders never cease?

[YvonneCa]

11. That's great. I noticed they have been...

...doing that since the inauguration.

[spanone]

5. i'm beginning to think this 'compromise' has been a media fantasy

[EFerrari]

8. Last night Charlie Rose was all about this bill. Someone, maybe Al Hunt,

said that these economic bills that come first in a new administration are always a big circus. Apparently not only Clinton but also Poppy and Rayguns went through just about the same thing. I was happy to hear that because to hear the Republicans, Obama should just pack up and go back to Chicago.

[patrice]

7. thanks!! - - - CALL THEM!!! - - - please : - )

[Muttocracy]

9. Kerry's doing a wonderful job - so smart, so clear, in historical context

Thank you President Kerry.

[YvonneCa]

16. "Thank you President Kerry" is what I...

...was thinking during his whole speech. ;) I guess...now with Obama...I should think 'Former' President...but we are where we are because of President Kerry. You can tell he loves the debate.

10. Kiss my ass, Kyl

You miserable SOB.

It wasn't the 'Democrat' congress that filibustered every important bill in last session.

Jerk.

[Blaukraut]

15. Kyl is a liar n/t

[tridim]

12. The great art of debate is BACK!

Rock on Democracy.

[stevedeshazer]

13. I wish Kerry would just walk over and choke Kyl

They're gonna run that whiny bastard for President, just wait for it.

[Ichingcarpenter]

14. Sen. Kerry is kicking Kyle's butt

and the republicans. Thank you John

[Ichingcarpenter]

18. Sen Boxer on now gonna talk for 15 mins

All Right!!!

[Muttocracy]

19. "Where were my Republican friends?" when G. Bush spent so much on Iraq and tax cuts for the rich! nt

[Ichingcarpenter]

22. She makes me Proud to have her as my Senator.

9.8% unemployment in California ...... crap
I thought it was a 8 the last time I checked

[EFerrari]

21. It's good to have at least one Senator who can wipe the floor with Republicans.

[globalvillage]

20. Boxer following Kerry

Excellent. Kick ass, Barbara.

[Muttocracy]

23. She's fantastic - "The election was about the economy!"

[Ichingcarpenter]

25. Being left out? Was that McCain or Lindsey?

Or both? I think it was both of them.

[Muttocracy]

26. Graham cracker for sure - don't know if McCain felt left out. nt

[Muttocracy]

24. agrees w/ Kerry it's been an open process - they can work with Dems - "Get over it!"

[Parker CA]

28. Such a wonderful and to-the-point speech! Called them out for filibustering.

Called them out for old-tactics, called them out for creating the straw-man of being left out, called them out on being children running home with their marbles, sucking their thumbs and pulling the sheet over their heads, and called our McCrook for calling the fundamentals of the economy strong and for his econ. adviser for calling the recession "mental."

She's so good! SO happy to have her as the strongest Senator from CA!!!

[globalvillage]

27. Johanns is an idiot.

That was Bush's treasury that mismanaged the tarp. Republicans think people are stupid.

[Vinca]

29. He's the perfect Republican senator, though.

He just got there and he's got the whine perfected already.

[Ichingcarpenter]

30. I'm having problems hearing Klobuchar

No sound
