Thank you Jim Webb for making a bleak night a little bleaker

Jeezus! What stupidity.

1. What did he do?

I don't have a TV. Don't just start a thread to make a comment if you're not going to give any background info.

2. my bad

Sorry, I meant that comment to be a reply to another string but somehow it wound up as a separate post. Here's the string I was replying to:

3. what did he say?

i've been too stunned and sad to channel surf.

4. Webb said

no HCR vote until after Brown is seated.

6. the Dems continue to appease the fascists

yep, we're all the way down to 59 Dem Senators, and that means we can't do anything.

at this point there is little hope for any "change" without a full-blown revolution.

7. I agree with Webb.

But first, the Senate Democrats should use the 'nuclear option' and end the tyranny of the minority filibuster rule.

It is time to bring real democracy to the United States Senate -- majority rule!!!

5. mods - I goofed on this reply

My OP here should have been a reply to the following string:

You might want to lock this string to avoid duplication. Sorry about that.

8. What makes him stupid?

I don't follow. The people in Massachusetts have clearly said something about the policies that the Obama administration is trying to shove down everyones throats. It's only fair that an elected Senator be seated so that Massachusetts can have its say.

9. .

:popcorn:

[FrenchieCat]

10. Massachusetts doesn't run this country......

I don't believe they won by enough to even think so.

Go back to your lair and let them know.

They've woken us up, you and your side....
We won't be caught off guard arguing with each other
any longer.

[ArnoldLayne]

12. Enjoy your little stay here higgsey baby you

wont be here long. You might as well get it all in now Chippy..... I mean higgsy because you will be TOOMSTONED before the nigh yes the nigh (I didn't misspell it) is young. :hippie: :toast:

[Divine Discontent]

11. you got that right... sickened to see him say that TONIGHT....

[brentspeak]

13. Webb may be doing the smart thing for the Democratic party

If Brown kills the Senate version of "HCR", the incumbent Democrats won't have this atrocity of a bill hanging over their heads reelection time.
