Tsk Tsk John McCain

Post by UNHWildCats »

Everyone remembers a few days ago when Lieberloser was denied an extra minute of speaking time and John McCain went into a rant about how that was wrong and that in all his time he had never seen a member of the Senate denied an extra minute to finish remarks?

Come on guys you remember that right?


October 10, 2002:

The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator's time has expired.

Mr. DAYTON. I ask for unanimous consent that I have 30 seconds more to finish my remarks.

Mr. McCAIN. I object.

I'm completely astonished that republicans would even show their faces in public, let alone speak out loud, after their Eight Years of Miserable Failure and Abject Incompetence under the Worst President Ever.. :ohno:

If you knew anything about parliamentary procedure, you would see how this is not the same thing. Objections from the floor are commonplace, and are in order. What is not kosher is the presiding officer denying an extension to comments without an objection from the floor. In the absence of that (in the case of Senator Lieberman) the presiding officer, Senator Smalley, lodged his own objection from the bench, which was out of order.

This is what happens with supermajorities. You'd be whining and pissing out of your jizzslot if the tables were reversed. Blah blah blah stifling dissent blah blah blah Nazi Republicans blah blah WHIIIIINE.

look dipshit. In 2002 McCain as the Sen from Arizona objected. Last week Franken said "In my capacity as Senator from Minnesotta I object." He wasnt denying him as the presiding officer.

All we are doing here is excusing one sides bad behavior by pointing to the other sides bad behavior. All it does is ensure additional bad behavior by both sides. What I want to know is when will the bad behavior end? I don't care who started it. I want to know who is going to end it. That side will be my heroes.

You obviously don't have the capacity to understand what I am saying, so I will put it in simpler terms.

The presiding officer cannot both preside over the Senate and make parliamentary motions or objections. Get out your Robert's Rules. It is real simple.

Cockmonkey.

Lack of shame is a very dangerous trait, kind of sociopathic.

Bring back public stocks on the courthouse lawn and rotten vegetables.

I find my self agreeing with cleets when discussing politicians. Fortunately for him, he seems to find substantial hunor in his disgust for that unsightly species.

problem is that the republicans do damage all out of proportion to their actual numbers, because while the Democrats are stupid and lazy, the Republican's posess the dangerous combo of a dumb-brute stupidity and industriousness.

I don't know. The Democrats show a lot more industry than the Republicans when it comes to campaigning. It is all directed at the Jerry Springer crowd, but industrious all the same.
