- karlbr, on 12/17/2007, -1/+148How about we start with the Constitution?
- mydigglogin, on 12/17/2007, -1/+79The Patriot Act and/or the signing statements.
- kLoWn420, on 12/17/2007, -1/+79I am floored an awed by this. A Senator acting like one. This issue has been largely ignored, seems somewhat unimportant, but at least one member of Congress recognizes its potential impact on precedent regarding the constitution. If he goes thru w/ it, I just changed my vote.
- savetheusa1, on 12/17/2007, -1/+46Articles of impeachment for Cheney (yes I know it has to start in the House)
- bacon_skoda, on 12/17/2007, -2/+42recite pi
- spyd3rweb, on 12/17/2007, -1/+38Read the Constitution and the Federalist Papers, maybe the Declaration of Independence too.
- thebellmaster1x, on 12/17/2007, -0/+36He should read Ulysses to them. When it finishes, they'll probably be too confused to remember how to subvert the country.
- johnnick, on 12/17/2007, -4/+33Dodd has really impressed me lately. I didn't know a lot about him before he started making these stands, but since he has, I've been contributing to his campaign. Just like all the people sending money to Ron Paul on the Republican side, Dodd is the only Democratic candidate in the Senate who is acting like he deserves your money and support.
- fasda, on 12/17/2007, -1/+29then 1984 and if theres time one flew over the cuckoo's nest,
- mishaco, on 12/17/2007, -1/+27read the Constitution , the Bill of Rights , the Magna Carta and 1984 .
- AaronS2000, on 12/17/2007, -5/+27I think he should sing the song that never ends.
- Snakedal337, on 12/17/2007, -1/+22Like I said in the other thread, the constitution would make for a wonderful speech. Maybe read it twice. Or hell 5 times. Maybe throw in a few amendments. You know just the basics, like the ***** BILL OF RIGHTS.
On a serious note, what if they set a speaking limit? (They can do that) - dennycautrell, on 12/17/2007, -1/+22All of the majority opinions of the Supreme Court to date.
- ibri, on 12/17/2007, -0/+19How about some selections from Orwell? 1984, anyone?
- joshaphoto, on 12/17/2007, -3/+22If Harry Reid goes threw with this *****. I will personally go back to his state when he is up for reelection and try and prevent him from being reelected. He is not a Democrat he is a Republican dressed in a Democrat suit who has no ***** spine!!!!!!
- maiku00, on 12/17/2007, -0/+16Colbert's I Am America, So Can You
- inactive, on 12/17/2007, -3/+19"Ladies and Gentlemen of the senate please suck my dick." Then he can read the Constitution, the Federalist Papers, to explain the Constitution, The dependance of fact upon value by Martin Diamond, State Building bty Francis Fukuyama, a third grade history book and the unabridged works of Shakespeare and Christopher Marlow. That aught to get him started.
- GRiley007, on 12/17/2007, -0/+16And the ironic thing is that this will cost him money, and time with constituents, in probably the most critical period of his campaign. All to do something that he believes in. "A Senator acting like one".... wow, it's amazing how much standards have dropped in the past seven years.....
- ApokalypseNow, on 12/17/2007, -1/+16sdsurf you moron - we have PLENTY of dirt on Bush, there's just nobody who wants to go after him at the cost of their political career! There is a whole laundry list of crimes he's committed while in office.

- MrMooski, on 12/17/2007, -1/+15We need dozens more like this great man. There are many many more crimes this President must be held accountable for.
- tchynerd, on 12/17/2007, -0/+12Read the entire script for 'Mr. Smith goes to washington'. Hell act it out!
- dasunst3r, on 12/17/2007, -1/+12Magna Carta, Declaration of Independence, Constitution (in that order).

- sunshinemonster, on 12/17/2007, -0/+9he should do exactly what the segregationists did in the 60's, read out every name, number, and address from every U.S. phonebook.
- Retsam06, on 12/17/2007, -1/+9Catch-22
- spyd3rweb, on 12/17/2007, -0/+7If you repeat it enough times maybe it'll sink into the heads of those pols.
- Rezistik, on 12/17/2007, -0/+7You wanna give them ideas or something?
- Napoleone, on 12/17/2007, -0/+7Read the Great Writ.
- bburrito, on 12/17/2007, -0/+6Ding ding ding! Make the senators read it now. We know they didn't read it before it was passed.
- MadN, on 12/17/2007, -1/+7Ray Bradbury; Fahrenheit 451?
- deathbyspatula, on 12/17/2007, -1/+7i want to hear him read Dr. Suess!!!
- omgTHEPATRIOTS, on 12/17/2007, -1/+7Dodd better be prepared to stand there for the next month or so. I fully support him.
- Rezistik, on 12/17/2007, -3/+9I'd say 1984..but that might give them too many ideas/
- TheBlindGuy, on 12/17/2007, -0/+6Yes, but then no one can filibuster for the remainder of the session. They won't vote to do that because many members may be wanting to filibuster something later.
- pagemaster, on 12/17/2007, -0/+6Then he can explain the dangers of ocular penetration
- MrCobaltBlue, on 12/17/2007, -1/+6withholding vital information from the president? I.E the NIE Report.
- Napoleone, on 12/17/2007, -0/+5Dugg you for the optimism.
- KbuPlatinum, on 12/17/2007, -3/+8It just goes on and on my friend
- SemiSarcastic, on 12/17/2007, -2/+7This article is simply filabust-a-licious!
- banmaster, on 12/17/2007, -0/+5I guess it would give him an excuse for sniffing his own farts then!
- ElimGarak, on 12/17/2007, -0/+4Fail.
- crzyltlman, on 12/17/2007, -0/+4C&L says that the candidates are for the Judiciary Committee's version of the bill, i.e. the one without immunity, as opposed to the Intelligence Committee's version of the bill, the one that Reid is supporting, which has immunity in it. This "two version" clarification is probably why the mainstream media can't be bothered to cover any of it -- it can't fit into a 10 word blurb at the bottom third of the screen.
- jynweythek, on 09/17/2008, -0/+4THROUGH
- kingvik, on 12/17/2007, -0/+4A filibuster can go on forever if the speaker doesn't stop, but if the senate votes with 60 + members to end it then they can end it.
