Official Thread: Rand Paul filibusters the Debt Ceiling Budget

[nikcers]

He's off to a good start. PROVE ME WRONG, RAND! PROVE ME WRONG!

I think he heard you, he perked up right after your post. Keep antagonizing him its working.

Never know. Couldve been one of her other personalities. Watching her talk makes me very uneasy. I feel as if she's a pathological liar (then again arent they all?) and has demon blood running in her veins.

LOL, my friend that doesn't really follow this stuff was over while I was watching the CNN debate in September and he said "Why is she talking like that? It's creepy."

 

[Constitutionally Inclined]

Why did Rand yield his time? I thought he was filibustering?

From his .gov it looks like my senator Roy Blunt is voting against it.

I just heard Rubio's name so apparently he did show up.

Somebody is pissed off...

 

[LatinsforPaul]

Lindsey, McCain, McConnell SUCK!

 

[Constitutionally Inclined]

Lindsey, McCain, McConnell SUCK!

is a well established fact.

 

[ds21089]

Game over. Ugh

 

[LatinsforPaul]

is a well established fact.

Correction, continue to SUCK!

 

[Constitutionally Inclined]

So because they got 60+ votes, there can be no debate correct? Does that mean the bill is passed?

 

[Jonderdonk]

Is anyone else thoroughly confused?

 

[Constitutionally Inclined]

Yes, they voted on cloture which is a measure to end debate on a bill.. I'm wondering if that means the bill will be passed now.

 

[helmuth_hubener]

Bernie just voted Aye. All the women seem to be voting Aye. Arrgh, suffrage.

 

[Valli6]

Still counting. They already got 62 Yes votes, 34 no votes…….

 

[helmuth_hubener]

Every time I hear a "Ms. ___" I know it's going to be an Aye.

 

[helmuth_hubener]

John Thune, Republican of South Dakota, votes Aye.

 

[LatinsforPaul]

The arrogance...

 

[dusman]

"Yeah.. he better get his ass here because they've already lost one vote."
