You Can Call Me Senator from Minnesota
Short of denying Droopy his precious Homeland Security committee chairmanship, we’ll have to settle for Al Franken telling him to STFU on the Senate floor today.
Douchebag Joe was blathering on about something, and Senator Al (presiding over the session) told him his allotted ten minutes were up. Douchebag Joe requested another moment. Senator Al declined.
At which point Droopy’s BFF Psychogeezer erupted in high umbrage:
I don’t know what’s happening here in this body, but I think it’s wrong… I don’t like it, and I think it harms the comity of the Senate.
We must have missed McCain’s complaint yesterday when Republicans demanded that all 767 pages of Bernie Sanders’ single-payer healthcare amendment be read aloud, effectively stalling the process until it was withdrawn.
Franken Cuts Lieberman Off, Won’t Let Him Finish Floor Speech [TPM]
I saw the clip of Bernie going after Coburn for trying to run the clock. Incredible restraint, maybe too much, in a moment that cried out for apocalyptic vulgarity.
Damn kids! Get off my lawn!
/obvious
Motherfuckers turned off lights and denied hearings when they were in charge, remember?
Comity my ass.
@Tommmcatt is hunkered down in the trenches: No kidding. Time to nail Lieberman’s ears to the floor and shit on his face.
Senator McCain’s comments remind me of President Merkin Muffley in Dr. Strangelove, “Gentlemen, you can’t fight in here! This is the War Room.”
This is the best, maybe Franken will somewhat inspire some spine, I don’t expect much, but something.
I thought this clip was more remarkable for it’s clear example of what a whiner McCain is. I guess it is impossible to embarrass that guy.
@FlyingChainSaw: Pass the Ex-Lax, Chainsaw.
the best thing was the look on Droopys face.
well and that the Droopy impression Franken did when he complained.
