— DrewM Lots of things going on.
The House just passed a Continuing Resolution to fund the government through the rest of the fiscal year (September '11). The GOP in the Senate isn't likely to go for that. With their increased numbers and Republican control of the House coming next month, they are going to want a shorter CR so they can have more control over the budget.
Also in the House, they are debating their version of the DREAM Act right now. Earlier today, Harry Reid said for procedural reasons, the Senate had to wait for the House to act. It's clear the House will pass it, though the vote on the rule was pretty close (I think this is it even though the title of the bill is odd). Once that's done the Senate can move but now there are reports it won't be tonight. (Update: MSNBC says no Senate DREAM Act vote tonight)
And finally, DADT. Susan Collins (Pain In The Ass, ME) really, really wants to vote for this and she's trying to make it impossible for Reid to say no to her (heads up, it's a link to TPM). She says she's sticking to the plan that the tax deal must come first. Reid has apparently pulled DADT from tonight's schedule, so that might mean he's going to do taxes and then get Collins on DADT. Someone needs to remind Collins that the letter from the GOP said taxes AND the Continuing Resolution had to come first, not just the taxes.
As always with Congress, this is all subject to change without notice.

CoolCzech, going off topic is good.
And regarding the 12 days of Christmas song, I sang the entire song by memory on Monday at a cub scout meeting in front of a bunch of 7 year old kids who went absolutely beserk over the song. And of course I had to add the operatic touches to the whole thing and all.

If you're not from Southern California or Arizona, you don't have the right to promote the dream act. enough said. We're being overrun here. The illegals use a cash only / no taxes system in their culture, and therefore the census data shows them to be much poorer than they actually are.
I see illegals all the time in brand new 35-$40,000 trucks that they pay CASH for. While me, the evil white man, has been driving the same volkswagen for 10 years. My children have to pay for lunch at school while they get it free. Enough is enough
Nobody in new england has the right to add to this debate. certainly nobody from maine. For the elitists living elsewhere.. do you have those no questions asked check cashing places every 30 feet? Whatcha think those are for? Law abiding people? no. they're for people that can't get drivers licenses and open a checking account. Judging by the fact that there are more of those stores than fastfood places here, I'd say all 20 million plus illegals live here.
its no longer 12 million idiots in the media. When we were fighting this crap 10 years ago you were using the same numbers. 20 million is the most conservative estimate. 35 wouldn't surprise me a bit.
We need to push back the hordes folks. Or if not, lets stop pretending the border means anything, ok? We're adults. we don't play pretend anymore

Lennon was a first-class anti-American douchebag who should have been exported with extreme prejudice. That said, with the notable exceptions of Let It Be and Hey Jude, Lennon's songs stand up better (except, of course, for the insipid "Imagine", which sucks big ones) than McCartney's

I do think Krenwinkle and Van Houten could be released without threatening society. They were just stupid, naive girls looking for a father figure when they fell under Manson's spell. Susan Adkins just died, so that's a moot point. Tex Watson is allegedly born again in prison. He deserves to rot for what he did.

I heard the same thing, and I can't access Drudge at the moment.
Hannity is yammering about something -- probably as a warmup for bringing in the Newt -- and I can't find a source that confirms. TepidAir has some lead post by an idiot from the Groan Room who seems to be upset at DeMint for not supporting the tax reduction/unemployment because he wants the lower rates to last longer and not increase the deficit.
Guess I'll have to go check C-Span.
If this is true, I think we're getting to a point where we need to do something to end the reign of the corrupt, treasonous jerks who are in charge in D.C. Don't know what we can do, but they have killed the country if they let amnesty pass.

K, time for a fight. If Clapton isn't THE preeminent rock guitarist - based on technical proficiency, longevity, and body of work - who is?
Posted by: Ombudsman at December 08, 2010 09:34 PM
++++++++++++++++
It will be a silly fight, as there is nothing to fight about. There is no preeminent rock guitarist now, and that is as it should be. There have been and still are many incredible rock players, each with a style unique to the player. To put them in a competition is a false premise, and completely subjective.
Oh, I know, you're just screwing around. So am I.

A. Gee, that's wonderfully mature behavior from the only viable candidate from Delaware.
B. This is the same asshole that voted for Cap and trade and then defended the vote in the Weekly Standard the day before his primary. The one that he lost.
Get real.

So Castle, because he is pissed he lost an election, decided to stick it to the entire country? And this is what...an excuse?
If it's sour grapes, he is a self-centered, selfish person who should never have been in office.

Don't get me wrong, I don't disagree. Some of the stuff of the era might just as well have come from the 1700's, based on its relevance. The influence on other musicians is what matters

If we have republicans voting for amnesty, then it is over for us. There is no point in voting, or donating, or do anything. They are voting for a bill that will end their own party as it is supplying the dems with millions of new automatic voters who will just vote for more free money from the rest of us. SO WHY SHOULD WE TOLERATE THEM?

To hear O'Donnell's lunatic supporters tell it, the "unmanly" septuagenarian with a weak heart could only get it up for young men. If only Castle was an openly gay man with a lisp. Your gay-baiting taunts would write themselves.

Well, about half of the Reps voting aye aren't coming back for the next Congress, so they're pitching a hissy as they're dragged off stage,
More worrisome are the half that voted aye out of racial solidarity, and the number of Reps from Texas and California who didn't show up so they could dodge the issue. These folks will never be safe votes on anything race related in the new house.

Try defending the crap you wrote instead of hiding behind her. You want to pretend that Castle voting like Coons is somehow better than Coons voting like Coons? Lie to yourself all you want. It's still a disgrace. Delaware has a big illegal alien problem. Voting for an amnesty won't help that.

NOW he is. If Republicans held the Senate, Castle would have worked to impress the REPUBLICAN base and voted with his party. But here he is in the Democrat lame duck House voting the way Delaware constituents want him to vote. These are the same voters who preferred Coons to O'Donnell. The tea party blew it here, and the people who wanted purity or nothing got nothing. All this bitching is just pathetic.
Posted by: Tattoo De Plane at December 09, 2010 05:26 AM (mHQ7T)
But it had everything to do with COD. Although she sued a conservative group and had not only no political record but also a terrible personal one and came out and endorsed Hillary, supporting her became a litmus test for how pure you really were as a conservative. She was nuts, a proven loser and full of shit about her little talking points. She didn't even understand the office she was running for, the issues she would vote on and was clearly in it for money. Yet Castle was somehow worse. Someone in a blue state is expected to be a moderate; but someone with Castle's career can be reliably pragmatic, as well. You were told by everyone but the blowhards like Levin and COD's boyfriend Hannity that this would end badly. But that bimbo was worth it for you.

What utter bullshit.
1. The Republicans weren't "holding the Senate". They were in the minority. They still are.
2. "But here he is in the Democrat lame duck House voting the way Delaware constituents want him to vote"
Cite the source proving this. I'm not aware of a majority in Delaware demanding amnesty.
3. Castle would have worked to impress the REPUBLICAN base and voted with his party.
Prove it. Otherwise, this is at best a guess or wishful thinking, or at worst, another lie to back the choice that you made. You want to keep bitching about the Tea Party? That's your choice. Making up lies and fanciful tales about the awesomeness and anguish of Mike Castle isn't impressing anyone here.
Posted by: Blue Hen at December 09, 2010 05:41 AM (R2fpr)

More lies and evasions.
Why did Castle decide to defend a cap and trade vote the day before the primary? The 'bimbo' forced him to do it?
Why couldn't he be bothered to campaign here? Did Hannity kidnap him?
It's easier to continue to vent about the 'bimbo' than it is to dissect Castles' primary campaign. Perhaps its because the results would undermine the conclusion about how wonderful, moderate, pragmatic and new-and-improved he is.
Since you don't like the peasants revolting, then tell the idiot running the state party to either get their annointed choice off of his ass and on the campaign trail, or do away with primaries and just continue with the annointing.
That would save money and we wouldn't have to deal with liars such as you.
