Alito will be confirmed in less than an hour. Kerry and Kennedy tried to ignite the filibuster yesterday but were stopped hard when the cloture vote was called. They only needed 60 votes to stop the Double K threat of boring the shit out of us from Massachucettts, they got 72.
I want to thank the 19 Democrat Senators that voted with the Republicans to gag the blowhards from Mass. If I had to listen to anymore grandstanding from Ted "Champion of Women's Rights" (unless those rights require me to do anything physical like pull her to shore) Kennedy talk about Alito's past deeds [cough, irony, cough] I would've torn out my hair.
Sam Alito will be confirmed as the 110th Supreme Court Justice today. I will leave you with the immortal words of my favorite Republican, Eric Cartman.
Cartman: Yes! Yesss!! Oh, let me taste your tears, Libs! Mm, your tears are so yummy and sweet.

That'll show those idiot liberals.
Over-Top, there's a lot of that going around lately.
Sure is. Like to think that I've been avoiding it though.
A few rulings for the conservatives and Bush will get another appointment opportunity. The liberals on the court will so dislike being outvoted they will be resigning. The next nominee with Janice Rogers Brown. Maybe this time we can get Kennedy to burst an aorta.
LMAO! Rose. Superb!
No matter what the polls say on Bush, no matter what he says tonight in the SOTHU speech, this SCOTUS confirmation makes it a great day for conservatives. We happy!
All the Dems need to do to affect the court is learn how to elect a President. Then they get the next one.
