HOW COME the DemocraPs NEVER FILIBUSTERED ANYTHING during the reign of Bush?
"GOP wins big in Ga. Senate runoff; Chambliss victory preserves filibuster" by Robbie Brown and Carl Hulse, New York Times | December 3, 2008
ATLANTA - Saxby Chambliss, a first-term Republican senator, was reelected by Georgia voters yesterday in a substantial victory, ending Democratic hopes for a 60-vote majority in the Senate that would make it difficult for Republicans to filibuster the Obama administration's legislative agenda....
*************
Both sides are already gearing up for 2010, where Republicans will again have more senators up for reelection than Democrats will, providing Democrats with another chance to hit or surpass the 60 mark.
How about EXCOMMUNICATING Lieberman then?!
In the Georgia runoff, both campaigns enjoyed national support from the two parties, which spent about $2 million each and sent some of their biggest names to the state.
First of all, how many mortgages would $2 million dollars pay off? And what was the CARBON FOOTPRINT of all those big-wigs coming in?
