[rubioneocon]

drone acceptable because of the faith you should have in the operator . . .

@JimDeMint: We should thank @SenRandPaul @tedcruz @JerryMoran @SenMikeLee for standing up for Constitution and due process.” And @ronwyden!

Jonathan (JB) Brown ‏@jb82185 Both @seanhannity & @codepink are encouraging their supporters to tell their Senators to #standwithrand on the #filiblizzard #isthisreallife

Yes, thank them! I've called them all to thank them (can't get through to Wyden or Rubio.)

Rand will win California electoral college prize in 2016

 

[unknown]

Yes!

What about some allies, Jim DeMint maybe?

"Who might kill?" They are doing this as a MO.

Sen Joe Manchin's office hung up on me. I thought it was an accident so I called back. Same thing.

call again and record it.

I hope he's had breaks and can get to the bathroom. If not then it will not last long but i'm sure he can as there have been filibusters in the past for 24 hours, 16 hours etc and I dont believe they did it without breaks.

Strom Thurmond apparently had some sort of device fitted to him during his filibuster of the Civil Rights Bill in 1957.

Retired.

 

[supermario21]

Good afternoon. I am ... from Tulsa, and I have a time sensitive message for Sen. Coburn. I will be very disappointed if the junior Senator from Kentucky must look after my Constitutional rights without any assistance at all from either of my Senators.

Yes, please do pass that along right away, thank you.

Chambliss joins the party!

@HowardMortman

per @cspanannie Sen. Paul is still on his feet on the Senate floor. If he sits down, Sen. Paul will lose control of the floor.

I too called both Indiana Senators and both aids hemmed and hawed..Donnelly's aid said he was in meetings and I said his meetings can wait I thought Dems cared about civil liberties and he needs to be on the floor

Ha! I just called both Indiana senators. I asked Senator Coate's aide whether bombing Americans on American soil was a Democrat or Republican position. When the aide started saying, "um... um..." I suggested that if it was NOT a Republican position, Senator Coates needs to get out there and support Rand Paul's filibuster.

Senator Donnelly (a Democrat) is apparently not answering his phones. My calls to him went straight to voice mail, ha!

Everyone - this is a GREAT chance to get some publicity in the area of domestic drone use. KEEP UP THE HEAT! PLEASE!!!

What did Rubio say?

Water.

He said the issue isn't about whether or not the Senators agree with killing citizens here [which it very much is] as much as it's about the presidential obligation to answer pertinent questions that they asked.

Rand is on the front of FoxNews.com.

[acptulsa]

What did Rubio say?

Me, too! Me, too! Look at me too!

It's all Obama's fault!!

Pardon me for paraphrasing...

 

[bunklocoempire]

What did Rubio say?

Not sure what he said, but on how he said it:

He's having some kind of hormonal imbalance and was pretty emotional... looked thirsty..

Still no answer at Shelby's office, but finally got through to Chambliss' and Wyden's offices. I'll keep trying Shelby.
