Filibuster question.

Additionally, for an unbiased review of the filibuster:

Hypocritical to say the least. He must think no one is paying attention. On second thought no one is paying attention. Both McConnell and Harry Reid changed the rules on the filibuster when it served their purposes.

Liked this last line in the story:

"According to the U.S. Senate website, the word "filibuster' is derived from a Dutch word for "freebooter" and the Spanish "filibusteros" -- used to describe pirates."

Orgy of Psychodrama

Yeah, you guys, rewrite your history. It was just friendly tourists. LOL 

I'll go with what I saw as I watched it live on TV, changing channels between all of the news networks to see the different coverage of the event. Made me sick to see it.

C'mon. They were only curious tourists. Haven't you been reading the other thread Mel started?

I just read the story on the Fox News website. What are the chances it will be ignored on tonight's Sean Hannity or Tucker Carlson shows?

Obviously, any reasonable viewer doesn't include Rich. And I'm sure some con would find this guy credible, too:
https://nypost.com/2021/01/19/cop-allegedly-caught-lying-about-being-at-us-capitol-riot/
Or this guy:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/legal-issues/dea-agent-arrested-accused-of-lying-about-role-in-jan-6-capitol-riot/2021/07/20/ae5b8960-e976-11eb-8950-

Or this guy:
https://theintercept.com/2022/01/03/capitol-riot-january-6-proud-boys-fbi/
It doesn’t matter, they could be tried, convicted, and sentenced and Rich and Co. won’t believe it since they confuse their hero Tucker’s (isn’t that the name you give a little Scottish terrier) opinions as facts. These guys eat it up and don’t know the difference. It wasn’t a insurrection, it wasn’t sedition. Now that they’ve been indicted for sedition they’ll move the goalposts again and I’m sure they come up with more excuses why it wasn’t. Too bad Rich wasn’t on the Grand Jury so he could have set them straight.

Really? You think about committing multiple crimes every month? Which ones?

I can honestly say that while I might daydream about a "hot woman" I wouldn't be thinking of committing a crime to be with her.
