WATCH: Wielding Gavel, Franken Shuts Lieberman Up

WATCH: Wielding Gavel, Franken Shuts Lieberman Up

“Too bad this is all about Al, when it should really be all about Joe. Unfortunately, as with all narcissists, that is just the way Lieberman likes it. Franken stood up as a Senator and denied Lieberman the floor, but that doesn't compare with Lieberman standing up to single-handedly thwart an idea that he himself had proposed just months or weeks before. Lieberman, representing the Party of Self. The other downside is that it gives fodder to the other senator who continues to live off his old press clipping, John McCain.”

“Maybe Al should sho_ot him next time?

“Why stop with the hearings? Thomas made up his mind about virtually everything before he was even nominated, which is the reason he was nominated to the Court in the first place. He has rigidly prejudged everything, which, looked at another way, means that he has post-judged his whole life, and all of American history, and found it all wanting. Go back and watch Long Dong Silver.”

“This is a big duh story. The ADHD industry was created by big Pharma to sell ritalin and adderall. The observable diagnostic criteria for ADHD and sleep deprivation are almost identical. 50% of all ADHD diagnoses are really sleep related. Little Jonny snores, or stays up too late, or watches tv too late into the evening, or stays on the computer too late. But as ever, the pill wins.”

“I like Jim Webb, but this cluck deserves to do some serious time. He swam to visit someone he admired, and by showing up provided the pretext for incarcerating her. He's about two degrees from John Hinckley or Mark David Chapman.”

“This is an admirable rebuttal to the odious Palin. Good for the Senator to try to seize the state's political agenda back from the secessionist fringe; better late than never.

As for Palin herself, she is still paying for her attempt to miscarry poor little prop-baby Trig on that flight from Texas. Not enough has been made of the lunacy of flying eight hours after her water broke for the vanity of having her baby born on Alaskan soil. Was she afraid that her Downs baby wouldn't be eligible to be president of Alaska if he was born in a foreign country like Texas?”
